McAuliffe: Trump’s Comments Today ‘Morally Repugnant’ and ‘He Is Now Hurting Americans’
EXCERPT:
McAULIFFE: "The President’s clips you showed earlier said he would get it done. They have failed. I find it morally repugnant, what the President of the United States said today that potentially 30 million individuals, Americans, could lose their health insurance and he’s like a little spoiled kid who picks up his marbles and walks away. Where is the leadership? We have a void in leadership today. He ought to stand up and be a statesman, he ought to pull together. This is how negotiations are done. Back when you worked for Tip O'Neill and worked with Bob Michael and Ronald Reagan, Dan Rostenkowski, working with George Bush, parties came together for the good of the country. Donald Trump has abdicated his responsibility as president of the United States of America. He is now hurting Americans and he is going to pay the price politically."
