McConnell has issued a formal statement concerning the family feud allegations in The New York Times, saying that both his team and the White House are working on ways to move forward on the “shared goals” of infrastructure, job creation, and tax reform. They’re “committed to advancing our shared agenda and anyone who suggests otherwise is clearly not part of the conversation.”

That site is a showcase for egregious RW "commentators" like Michele Malkin.


Thanks!

He was there on the other end of the line. He'd know.

You'd think he'd want to dispel the notion that his party's President just committed another act of obstruction of justice...if it wasn't true. That's a big "if."

It's just that there's one or two other things on which they don't quite see eye to eye. I wonder why the Majority Leader didn't mention that? Are he and the President committed to things that aren't part of their shared agenda?

Dump doesn't seem to know that Senate Republicans have absolutely zero interest in revisiting health care any time soon.
