Trump has alleged that Mitch McConnell has a death wish and appears to be trying to incite violence against the Senate minority leader.
Trump wrote on the Truth Social:
Does McConnell agree to all these trillions of dollar bills sponsored by Democrats, without the slightest bit of negotiation, because he hates Donald J. Trump, and knows I’m very opposed to it, or does he do it because he believes in the fake and highly destructive Green New Deal, and would you like to take down country with him? Anyway, any reason is not acceptable. He has a death wish. You should immediately seek help and advice from China for him Loving wife, Coco Chow!
Trump can pretend to be upset with CR which was signed into law keeping the government funded until mid-December, but his anger at McConnell is really about Minority leader support for electoral count law reform.
The House and Senate versions of the legislation closed the door on tactics Trump tried to use to de-certify the election.
Donald Trump knows he can’t win a legitimate election, so his plan since losing in 2020 has been to stage a bigger coup in 2024.
Trump’s claim that Mitch McConnell has a death wish should be seen as an attempt to intimidate and incite violence.
The only way for the failed ex-president to get out of his legal troubles is to return to the White House, and Mitch McConnell makes that task even more difficult.
