It's arguable that the real RINO is Donald Trump.

Discuss....

Sen. Lindsey Graham:

@axtremus That is terrible. There is a way to have a disagreement with people without going to things like that.

(BTW, I would hate to be married to a lady like that who kept yelling, swearing, etc.)

And before anybody says anything, I know that there was a similar situation with Senator McConnell, and it was terrible at that time when the left side was doing it to him.

It is not "construction", does not accomplish anything, and makes me mad!!

Sen. Lindsey Graham:

That was inexcusable.

As was confronting Sarah Sanders in a restaurant.

Or Former Secretary Betsy DeVos.

Or Senator Paul.

I blame Maxine Waters' incitement to violence.

McConnell is an unpopular political hack who destroys the Republican side of the Senate, according to Trump.

. .. Trump went after Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), calling the Senate minority leader “a dour, sullen, and unsmiling political hack.”

In a lengthy statement on Tuesday, Trump said that McConnell was “destroying the Republican side of the Senate” and that the senator was ”one of the most unpopular politicians in the United States.”

“The Republican Party can never again be respected or strong with political ‘leaders’ like Sen. Mitch McConnell at its helm,” Trump said.

Actually, I think Thune dropped more...

@Axtremus

That’s a long and bombastic way of saying, “I was the first president to lose the White House, House of Representatives, and Senate in one term since Herbert Hoover, but Mitch McConnell is the real loser.”

What when the gulf between what gets you votes and your principles gets too big?

Also - Trump and McConnell ending this whole thing in a childish spat is just a bit too on the nose.

One more also - Trump used the word “dour”?

Son, if politicians had principles, they wouldn't be politicians.

Yeah, that seems a little unlikely.

In fact, the whole thing looks as though it was written by somebody else.
