President Trump just went after Senate Leader John Thune, saying he shouldn’t allow for a summer recess until the filibuster has been terminated and the Save America Act is passed, suggesting to do otherwise would be ‘stupid’.
Here’s what he wrote:
John Thune should not allow the United States Senate to “leave town” until it passes The Save America Act or, far better still, TERMINATES THE FILIBUSTER, where Republicans can then quickly pass everything they ever dreamed of, including a full and deep throated SAVE AMERICA ACT, the Budget, and the ever looming Debt Ceiling disaster, 1929! The Dumocrats will do it on day one, and can’t believe how lucky they got with this Senate leadership. Remember, stupidity always brings LOSING & DEATH! President DJT
Trump then followed it up with this post:
Whichever Party Terminates the Filibuster FIRST will be the Party that survives and thrives. If the Dumocrats win this race, however, America will rapidly become nothing more than a Third World Nation! President DONALD J. TRUMP
Trump went for a long time without calling out Thune by name, but those days are over. He’s clearly turning up the heat on Thune in hopes of swaying him, but I’m highly skeptical that it will work.
