They’re throwing shade at Mitch McConnell from all over the political map.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell dropped by my radio studio on Friday to talk about a myriad of subjects.
We talked about Wednesday’s meeting between the President, Sen. McConnell, and House Speaker Paul Ryan, where it was understood that compromises were made to expedite the passage of spending bills, including the notion of delaying funding for Trump’s border wall.
I asked Senator McConnell if there was a looming government shutdown ahead of the November midterm elections. “That’s not going to happen,” he snapped back.
Not long thereafter, President Donald Trump weighed in with a differing view of some of Sen. McConnell’s specifics. Big Donnie ain’t having it.
I would be willing to “shut down” government if the Democrats do not give us the votes for Border Security, which includes the Wall! Must get rid of Lottery, Catch & Release etc. and finally go to system of Immigration based on MERIT! We need great people coming into our Country!

In my radio interview, Sen. McConnell also talked about people harassing him outside restaurants.
We also talked about the staggering number of arrests made by ICE, the oddity of Trump inviting Vladimir Putin to the White House, socialists as recurring media darlings, and McConnell’s bromance with Democrat Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer. AUDIO HERE
