Who knew?
After all the hideously disrespectful and traitorous acts that McConnell committed against President Obama and the American people, this worm, who has enabled Trump every step of the way, this bad-tempered lout who won’t speak to Sen. Warren, has the audacity to claim that the Democrats’ refusal to continue to behave like abused spouses compares unfavorably to his record of deigning to meet with Pres. Obama.
Naturally, McConnell is lying, as he does on a daily, if not hourly basis.
Nicole Lafond at Talking Points Memo:
“In 2010, House Democratic leader Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) criticized McConnell and other Republican leaders, saying he was ‘disappointed” that Republicans were too busy to accept a bipartisan meeting with Obama and Democratic l’aders, the Wall Street Journal reported. At the time, a McConnell spokesperson said the White House made the mistake of announcing the meeting before checking to see if he was available for it.”
And Esme Cribb reports more:
“In fact, in 2010, McConnell—then the Senate minority leader—skipped dinner with President Barack Obama in favor of a meal with the conservative Federalist Society.”
