The Senate Majority Leader would like Trump to knock it off.

Asked on 1099AM’s WBAL News Now with Bryan Nehman if he was worried by Trump’s temperament, McConnell said, “It does, I don’t like that.”

“I think that ought to stop,” he said. “I don’t think it adds any value whatsoever to the discourse. It is something about him that I don’t care for.”

Earlier in the interview, McConnell said he was backing Trump because “he won, he got the most votes,” and it was his job to respect the will of the voters. McConnell added that the alternative of Hillary Clinton isn’t better than Trump.

    “I think that ought to stop,” he said.
    And I think The Boor couldn’t care less what you think, Mr. Turtle. To quote him at his recent fun presser “Think I’m gonna change? I’m not gonna change!”

    McConnell said “he won, he got the most votes, and it was his job to respect the will of the voters.”

    It’s a shame and a sham that McTurtle doesn’t apply the same logic to his obstruction of a sitting POTUS fulfilling his constitutional obligation to appoint a SCOTUS judge!

      He’s using a precedent that doesn’t exist. That’s how the Republicans govern.

    If Trump was required to critique an opponent’s policy positions or respond
    to a non-sympathetic reporter’s questions without wading in the
    cesspool of puerile, petulant, petty insults … he would be speechless.

      Wow, I wonder what that world looks like. I am picturing Oz myself, beautiful everywhere we look.

        Another way to look at it:
        Trump will be civil, humane, humble, respectful, mature, and rational … when monkeys fly.

          Oh, that is the bad part of Oz where the monkeys fly around.
