President Trump Attends Senate Republicans Weekly Policy Luncheons On Capitol Hill Peter Navarro, former White House director of trade and manufacturing policy and author of Taking Back Trump’s America : Why We Lost the White House and How We’ll Win It Back , told Breitbart News on Tuesday that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) subverted former President Donald Trump’s “drain the swamp” pursuit by delaying appointments for top officials at federal government agencies and departments.
“The only thing I’ll give to his credit is he helped President Trump get a lot of conservative judges appointed — okay, good for him — but everything else he did was designed to screw Donald Trump,” Navarro said on SiriusXM’s Breitbart News Daily with host Alex Marlow.
He continued, “The worst thing he did, in my judgment, was to slow-walk all of the Trump appointees to the major departments and agencies, so if you don’t have those folks in the top of those agencies, you cannot drain the swamp — and then fast-forward — McConnell made one the stupidest gambles in conjunction with Fox’s Karl Rove in Georgia, and they screwed up those Senate races.” Navarro said McConnell expected Democrats to win a majority in the U.S. House of Representatives and the presidency in 2020 while retaining his majority leader status in the U.S. Senate.
“McConnell was banking on him being the leader of the Senate, and Dems holding the House and [winning] the White House, and him being kingmaker,” Navarro stated, “but he screwed it up so badly with Karl Rove. We lost the Senate, as well.”
Navarro emphasized his educational pedigree in economics when describing rising government-driven inflation and costs of living as dire.
“People should be alarmed,” he remarked. “Look, I’m a Harvard-trained macroeconomist, I’m over 70 years old, [and] I lived through the […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
