White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement early Wednesday that President Donald Trump had called a series of GOP allies to congratulate them on their gubernatorial, House and Senate wins. He also called Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), she said. Read her statement below:
“Tonight, President Trump called Leader Mitch McConnell to congratulate him on the historic senate gains. He also spoke with Speaker Paul Ryan and Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi. The President called to congratulate Rick Scott, Mike DeWine, Kevin Cramer, Josh Hawley, Brian Kemp, and Ron DeSantis. Lastly, the President talked to Sen. Chuck Schumer. He and the Vice President will continue to make calls tonight and tomorrow.”
I assume he acted pissy to Pelosi and then tried to gloat to Schumer, only for ol’ Chuck to go “Have fun with the subpoenas.”
Historic Senate? They lie like rugs. Remembering bask before history began January 20, 2017 when the senate GOP lacked enough votes to break a filibuster. When the map is turned in 2020 will the Dems be historic?
