“I don’t know what’s wrong with them,” he said of Democrats Friday. “They’ve never done a thing like this. They’ve become crazed lunatics. All they have to do is say, ‘Let’s go. Let’s open up our country.’ And everything snaps back into shape. So there’s something wrong with them… It’s their fault. Everything is their fault. It’s so easily solved.”
“I don’t know what’s wrong with them. All they have to do is agree to let us cut funding so that millions of poor Americans won’t be able to afford health insurance. All they have to do is say, ‘Let’s go! Let’s fuck over poor Americans to fund tax breaks for billionaires!’”
