Sherrod Brown: It’s Clear that McConnell and the President Are Not on the Same Page on a Lot of Things’

RUSH EXCERPT:

BROWN: " Well, I don’t know what he only decides. The president went around the room agreeing with people all over the place during that meeting. But I look at, I look at what — it’s clear that Mcconnell and the president are not on the same page on a lot of things. Look at the clip you ran of Steve Bannon and what he said. Mcconnell’s in a tough place, but Mcconnell’s chosen to mix metaphors, to sleep in this bed he made. And he’s got to figure — he’s got to figure out what he does, but fundamentally, the president’s got to decide. Is he going to go with his campaign promises and his most recent comments, too, about focusing on the middle class, bringing jobs home, not continued tax breaks that outsource jobs, like the Mcconnell plan, is he going to do the patriot corporation act route, in the tax — working family’s tax relief act, or is he going to go with this billionaire contributors, with Mcconnell, and that’s the fork in the road. And so far, the jury’s out."
