Trump Calls Out Sen. McCaskill: 'Vote Her Out' If She Doesn't Back Tax Reform
IJR ^ | August 30,2017 | By William Steakin

During a speech in Missouri detailing the administration's plans for tax reform on Wednesday, President Donald Trump name-checked Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO), urging the cheering crowd to “vote her out” if the senior senator doesn't support his proposal.

“And your senator, Claire McCaskill, she must do this for you,” Trump said, referring to moving on taxes. “And if she doesn't do it for you, you have to vote her out of office.”

The line from the president elicited a roaring ovation from the crowd gathered at a manufacturing company in Springfield. “She's going to make that commitment. If she doesn't do it — can't do this anymore with the obstruction and the obstructionists,” Trump added.

The president warned if Congress doesn't pass what he called the “biggest ever” change to the tax code, then jobs in the country “cannot take off the way they should. And it could be much worse than that.”

During Trump's speech on Wednesday, he also claimed other countries were taking the United States “to the cleaners.”

I also like how he took a shot across the bow of Congress. That means you Ryan and Mitch.

She wouldn’t even be in the Senate right now if it wasn’t for Todd Akin inserting his foot into his mouth and not having the common sense to realize that he was seriously damaged goods and dropping out of the race.

Marsha is gone. Now all the left has is lack of empathy.

Of Course the ITGATE is hanging over OBOZO’s head so they may want to tread lightly.

Trump will work with them. Pelosi and Sheila E. Lee already back-peddling.

"He just applied the cattle prod to about 20 RAT and RINO senators representing the Deep State."

Rinse and Repeat please Mr. President.....

* Stabenow in MI is way under water, 38% to be exact, please come to MI Sir.
* And go to Massachusetts, take them on in their own turf. Phocahauntus is @ 57% those are good numbers, but their are those that think she is beatable, nudge her, make her work for it, make her defend Dodd Frank, Obamacare, and all the other parasitic drags on our Economy that she believes in.

Do it Mr. President!

BTW Freepers, I think he picks up 10 or 11 Senators all Trumpian if he runs the table ( this includes the 4 RINO's that get primaried )...

Pepé es muy grataficado!

I have no idea if that's Spanish, but it looks cool. How much do I love this frickin' President?! He's even better than I had hoped, and I was wildly optimistic.

The President was kind today to Blunt and Wagner - neither of which, to my knowledge, has gone out on a limb for him.

I doubt his kindness will be repaid.

So payback on them will be the more justified.

He will be the one with all the information he needs to get Congress moving.

The Dems never expected this. They are not in charge.

He is.

The Dems get what’s right for the USA going or face going to jail, their call.

It’s not enough to elect more R jerseys.

We must remove the Democrats in R jerseys who voted for amnesty.

Corker, Hatch, Heller and Flake in 2018

Graham and Alexander in 2020

Murkowsky, Hoeven and Rubio in 2022

McCain won’t see 2019.
