Breitbart ^ | 06/28/2021 | Wendell Husebo

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) Monday demanded assurances from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) that the bipartisan infrastructure bill is not held “hostage” to reconciliation with “Green New Deal socialism.”

“The President has appropriately delinked a potential bipartisan infrastructure bill from the massive unrelated tax-and-spend plans that Democrats want to pursue on a partisan basis,” McConnell explains in a press release. “Now I am calling on President Biden to engage Leader Schumer and Speaker Pelosi and make sure they follow his lead.”

Yeah, assurances. “Don’t worry Charlie Brown, I won’t pull the football away this time!”

Do you want to demand something, Mitch?

Demand that the first bill be signed before you agree to take up any other work.

How many more times will you agree to something now for the promise from Democrats to do something later?

Democrats “Uhhhhmmmm... Sure- we promise!”

Democrats “About what...?”

Republicans should not trust Democrats.

Republican voters should not trust elected Republicans.

Mitch negotiates from a position of weakness.

None of this would be a legislative concern if Donald Trump was president.

I mean, Mitch doesn't expect the dems to honor a promise. He expects them to make one so he can give them what they want and then tell the voters 'they lied! I was shocked... SHOCKED! They promised! Vote for us and this will never happen again! Until it does, over and over and over! Trust us!"

All part of the standard kabuki dance they use to keep conservatives bamboozled into thinking there is a party opposed to leftism.

He has to try and save face........we all know his “demands” don’t mean a thing........that the RINO’s will go along with anything the left puts out. Damn! 2022 can’t come soon enough. We have to give that sorry bunch a jail cell or deportation!!!

In a just world, Mitch would be considered to be one of the worst among us. But ALL Democrat leaders are now pure evil.
