Trump to McConnell in latest tweet: 'Get back to work,' 'You can do it!'

in #news7 years ago

President Donald Trump and Sen. Mitch McConnell spoke on the phone
The tweets follow McConnell's line that Trump has 'excessive expectations'
(CNN)President Donald Trump resumed his public feud with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Thursday over his party's failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, a sign of the fraught relationship between two branches of government that are both controlled by Republicans.

"Mitch, get back to work and put Repeal & Replace, Tax Reform & Cuts and a great Infrastructure Bill on my desk for signing. You can do it!" Trump tweeted, his third tweet in two days calling out the Senate majority leader.
"Can you believe that Mitch McConnell, who has screamed Repeal & Replace for 7 years, couldn't get it done. Must Repeal & Replace ObamaCare!" the President tweeted earlier.
Trump commented Thursday about his ongoing spat with McConnell, telling reporters that if McConnell can't convince Republican senators to repeal and replace Obamacare, then it's time to consider stepping aside. Asked whether McConnell should resign, Trump said to wait and see if he can get repeal and replace done. "Then ask me," he said.
The public comments continue a public exchange of criticism between the GOP leaders of the Congress and White House this week, both of whom have an ambitious policy agendas that have struggled to make progress. On Tuesday, McConnell said Trump had "excessive expectations" for the legislative process and suggested there was a false perception that Congress is underperforming in part "because of too many artificial deadlines unrelated to the reality of the legislature, which may have not been understood."
Trump responded to that criticism Wednesday, tweeting: "Senator Mitch McConnell said I had 'excessive expectations,' but I don't think so. After 7 years of hearing Repeal & Replace, why not done?"160422_POL_Donald-Trump-Act.jpg.CROP.promo-xlarge2.jpg
