President Donald Trump’s social media director on Wednesday took aim at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) over the Senate Republican’s comments about the President’s “excessive expectations.”
White House social media director Dan Scavino said McConnell’s comments about Trump’s inexperience were “more excuses” and said McConnell “must have needed another 4 years – in addition to the 7 years — to repeal and replace Obamacare.”
More excuses. @SenateMajLdr must have needed another 4 years – in addition to the 7 years — to repeal and replace Obamacare….. https://t.co/6FOVBm6BQU

McConnell on Monday said “part of the reason” for the “storyline” that Republican lawmakers, who control both the Senate and the House, have not achieved very much is that Trump “and others” set “early timelines” for achieving policy goals.
“Our new President has of course not been in this line of work before and I think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process,” he said at a Rotary Club meeting in Kentucky.
Daniel Scavino - Building a strong coalition with the legislative branch one insult at a time.
I think McConnell is being pretty circumspect here. He knows that Trump doesn’t have a clue about the complexity of healthcare. He knows that Trump is a huge BS artist that didn’t contribute to the debates. Trump made a big show of bringing all the Republican Senators to the White House but couldn’t make a deal. Trump showed himself to be all show, no go; all hat, no cattle; and all thrust, no vector.
We are seeing those same non skills play out in the latest NK farce.
This was the Mitch equivalent of scratching Donald’s face with long, pointy, red fingernails…
And…Donald responds with Teddy Ruxpin?
Yes. I like it. Scavino, a social media scammer who doesn’t know politics from a hole in the wall, attacking Yertle who has been in Congress since the 1980’s.
This works for me.
Scavino thinks this is bad - wait until the tax reform ‘debate’ and then the debt limit arguments get rolling.
