Trump hints McConnell's future is bleak if he fails on major GOP agenda items
by Melissa Quinn | Aug 10, 2017, 3:56 PM

President Trump cast doubt on Mitch McConnell's future Thursday by hinting that the Senate majority leader may need to step down if he can't deliver on Trump's big legislative agenda.

"Well, I'll tell you what. If he doesn't get repeal and replace done, if he doesn't get taxes done, meaning cuts and reform, and if he doesn't get a very easy one to get done – infrastructure – if he doesn't get that done, then you should ask me that question," Trump told reporters at his golf club in Bedminster, N.J., when asked if McConnell should step down, according to a pool report.

The president has been in a public feud with McConnell that began earlier this week when the Senate majority leader blamed Trump for setting "excessive expectations" for healthcare legislation.

Consider that we have 535 members of Congress that need to do their dang jobs!

This urinating contest between Trump and McConnell is not at all entertaining. They should be working together instead of launching useless verbal darts at each other.

They're both dead in the water if tax reform and the debt ceiling don't get done. The optics of a government shutdown in October will not be good.

Yes, I thought the President was the head of the party.  Of course, that actually requires leadership.
