Thune isn't any better than McConnell. But Trump likes him (too). Thune is a dem-lite. His liberty score is 56%, just like McConnell's.



Trump says Thune 'will do an outstanding job' as Senate majority leader​

President-elect Donald Trump congratulated Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., after the lawmaker won election to serve as the next Senate Republican leader.

Republicans won the majority in the House and Senate during the 2024 elections.

"Congratulations to Senator John Thune, the Newly Elected Senate Majority Leader. He moves quickly, and will do an outstanding job," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.
 
Trump doesn't like thune...but when thune has the power to derail Trumps presidency...he can't go around calling thune "pencil neck" now can he?

^^^^ That's not something you say about someone you don't like.
 
The reigning king of the unforced error strikes again....Should've told Thune to **** off and supported Scott or someone else.

That said, how do you propose he get anything done by telling the truth about what a scumbag Thune really is?

I'm kinda surprised some of the rino's not pushing back against the Gaetz pick. I guess they watching their words knowing TRUMP's gonna be incontrol of the IC along with Musk's promise to primary rino's who don't fall in line.

Just like he did before.

Trump LOVES his RINO's. Regardless of the part he plays on TV. He backed McCarthy. He backed Mike Johnson. And how he backed Thune.

There's a pattern here that Trump supporters refuse to see.

Gaetz will never get confirmed. And Trump knows this. It's a "pat me on the back" appointment, like the Judy Sheldon appointment was.

It's like offering someone $100 that you know wouldn't accept a dime from you. And doing it just to say you did, kind of thing.

Not a Trumpster and I see the pattern of unforced errors just fine.

"Just like he did before" isn't an answer....How do you propose he act, if he wants to get is agenda through congress?

He has the support. He has the popularity. He even has the book, "The art of the deal." Something that supposedly means he's an awesome deal maker. A good closer.

Well, he didn't have the "art of the deal" his first go round. As he didn't get anything he said he wanted. Instead, he spent 4 years acting just like a RINO or dem lite. Giving Pelosi everything she wanted and getting nothing in return.

Now he's praising Thune, who also voted right along with the democrats and RINO's.

You see this as errors. I see it as Trump simply being a RINO. The only error is how Republicans think Trump is anything but a RINO.

Sure it is. And you say it publicly...When you NEED him to work with you.

Trump helps thunes career...thune is more likely to help trump.

A lot of words to dodge the underlying question.

Try again.
 
I'm sure Thune wouldn't have been Trump's first pick but he will still be expected to work on Trump's agenda. I hope he realizes that he is under a microscope and the people, many of whom don't trust him, will be paying a lot of attention to his actions. Thune needs to work for Trump, not the establishment. If he does that, he'll be fine. MAGA

Yours Truly the OP would... Because he is Truly an idiot.

Dude would cut off his own head to treat a mosquito bite on his nose.

Yeah well, Trumps record proves he's no better than Thune.

You can make out like it's a genius plan of some sorts, to work with Thune. But I remember how it worked out with him and Ryan. HUGE amounts of wasted money on socialist BS like Trumpcare, all those CR's and omnibus bills Ryan passed and Trump gladly signed.

Trump did or said nothing to oppose Thune. That's the kicker for me. If Trump didn't like RINO's like Thune, he would've spoken out against him.

I'm not an idiot, dude. I simply oppose the left and the RINO's who act exactly like the left.

I still have conservative values. Unlike Trump supporters who are fine with RINO's like Trump, Thune, Mike Johnson etc etc etc.

All yall seem to do is make excuses for Trump, every time he slaps you with his RINOism.

If Trump really wanted a constitutional and fiscally responsible GOP, he would've railed against Thune.
