Trump DEMANDS Mitch McConnell Immediately Be Kicked Out Of GOP Leadership

Donald Trump is done beating around the bush, and he is now officially calling for Mitch McConnell to be ousted from his Republican leadership position in the Senate. This would be the worst thing to happen to the Republican Party, but probably the best thing in the world for Democrats, so we should all welcome Trump's attacks at this point. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Donald Trump has continued to escalate his fight with Senate minority leader, Mitch McConnell. And on Wednesday of this week, Donald Trump finally just came out and said it. Mitch McConnell has to be kicked out of his leadership position in the us Senate done gone by by McConnell. Here's what Trump had to say. Mitch McConnell is not an opposition leader. He is a pawn for the Democrats to get whatever they want. He is afraid of them and will not do what has to be done. A new Republican leader in the Senate should be picked immediately. Mitch McConnell is many things.

He's an evil bastard. He is a super villain. He's smart, but a pawn of the Democrats that gives them whatever they want. That's a new one. I gotta admit that is a new one. I have never heard anybody. Describe Mitch McConnell as the guy who delivers everything the, the Democrats want. Now I can understand why somebody would make that claim, right? Either you just woke up from a coma for the last 35 years. Actually, no, I'm sorry. 37 years. You've been in a coma. Um, you're a time traveler and you just arrived in the future sometime from at least earlier than 1980, or you haven't paid attention to American politics in the last 37 years. So those are the only three possibilities for any human being in the United States. To think that Mitch McConnell is a pawn of the Democrats that gives them whatever they want. Now having said that, I also agree 100% with Donald Trump, that Mitch McConnell needs to be ousted from his leadership position, because nobody has been more effective at pushing the Republican agenda and making it happen than Mitch McConnell. So if you take him out of that position in the United States, Senate, who do you have to replace him? Who do you have that is capable of sweet talking Democrats to the point where they don't even realize you are conning them.

Nobody see that's the evil genius of Mitch McConnell. He can screw over Democrats time and time and time again yet, he still manages to screw them over even more because they always tend to believe what this guy says because behind closed doors, behind the scenes, he is a smooth talker. He knows how the game is played, probably better than anyone else. And he can manipulate people on the same level that Donald Trump can, except I think McConnell might even be better than him.

So you take that outta the equation. You get rid of McConnell and you replace him with who? Ted Cruz. You think Ted Cruz is smart enough and savvy enough to hoodwink the Democrats. Hell no, you can do Rick Scott. Okay, well you better go send an Envoy over to Italy. Find him on that luxury yacht. Maybe ask him where all the Republican money's gone too. When you got Ron Johnson Democrats, aren't gonna work with him. They're not ever gonna believe a word. He says, Rand Paul, please. So you take Mitch McConnell out of that leadership position. And that is the biggest gift on the planet you could ever give to the democratic party here in the United States. So I support Trump's crusade because he'll end up being successful with this. This is a fight that McConnell likely will not win, and it will be to the detriment of the Republican party, but to the benefit of the Democrats. So Trump keep those attacks common buddy, because if we wanna fix this country, we need an incompetent leader at the top of the Republicans in the Senate. And that's exactly what you're gonna give them.
