Donald Trump insults major Republicans and intimidates major donors

Donald Trump has yet to accept his defeat in the 2020 US election. He is looking to others to blame them for leaving the White House.

Update from Monday, April 12, 2021 at 11:30 a.m.: There is much anger given the violations that former US President Donald Trump voiced his displeasure with the losing election during a fundraising event in Palm Beach. Many donors: According to “Politico”, they were stunned by the appearance of the tough guy from the United States, who was interrupting his limbs with insults. “It was horrible, it was long and negative,” one guest told Playbook.

Instead of responding to the positive things his administration did, Donald Trump took the opportunity to speak out about retaliation against the Republicans who agreed to file lawsuits against him.

According to Politico, many donors have grown tired of Donald Trump’s strange behavior since January 6. Like the Playbook and The New York Times report, Trump has become a problem for many donors. So not many of them showed up at the fundraising event.

Donald Trump insults the leader of the Republican parliamentary group

First report from Monday, April 12, 2021 at 9:59 am: Palm Beach – Donald Trump has lost the 2020 presidential election. And clearly in the end. Most Republicans have accepted this fact and are looking forward to the 2022 mid-term elections. Their focus is on reclaiming at least one of the US houses of Parliament – the Senate or the House of Representatives – from the Democrats, at best.

But Donald Trump, whose party has promised important parliamentary elections, continues to deal with the past. As part of a fundraising event in front of handpicked Republican guests in Florida, Donald Trump is said to have deviated from the manuscript of his originally planned speech and poured his anger back on his re-election claiming it was “stolen” from him.

Donald Trump waves again at Mitch McConnell: ‘losing cold ice’

Mitch McConnell, the Republican minority leader in the US Senate, has done quite badly. McConnell, who had initially remained silent in the days and weeks after the election, was a red robe for Donald Trump as he not only agreed with Joe Biden winning the election, but also Trump with clear words for the January 6 storming of the Capitol. Blamed.

Since then, Donald Trump has not missed an opportunity to publicly denounce McConnell. And also this weekend. At the same time as the donation dinner, Trump invited to a more exclusive event at his Mar-a-Lago golf resort and as usual, he removed the skin without chopping his mouth. McConnell, this is an “ice cold loser.” Trump said if the Republicans had had a “true leader,” “we would not have accepted the defeat of the elections.”

Donald Trump attacks Ellen Chow, wife of Mitch McConnell and former secretary

but that is not all. New York Times reporter Shane Goldmacher, citing an attendee, reported this Donald Trump described Mitch McConnell as “the stupid son of a bitch.” He must be, who is also ungrateful. After all, in Donald Trump’s opinion, McConnell owed his re-election to only one person – Donald Trump. And McConnell never thanked him for that. Nor for Trump to hire McConnell’s wife.

Eileen Chow, McConnell’s wife, Secretary of Labor under President George W. Bush, from 2001 to 2009, took over the Department of Transportation in the Donald Trump administration in 2017 and only resigned on January 11, referring to the storm on the Capitol building. She also blamed Trump for the unrest and did not want to work “another day” under his leadership.

Donald Trump is disappointed with Mike Pence

The former reality TV star also found bad words for Mike Pence, Donald Trump’s vice president. He met with him and told him that he was still “disappointed” that Pence had not ignored the US Constitution and that the election was held against Trump on January 6. On January 6, Trump posted angry tweets against Mike Pence on Twitter, at which point his fans “hanging Mike Pence” marched on the Capitol and cheered.

He made clear again, that Donald Trump wants to continue to demand the leadership role of the Republicans – also with the aim of renewing their candidacy for the US president in 2024. His frequent attacks on influential Republicans like McConnell and Pence are making an impact among his fans, who make up a large percentage of Republican supporters and voters. His current adviser Jason Miller commented on Trump’s speech accordingly. Miller called Palm Beach, Trump’s adopted home, “the new center of political power.” (Mirko Schmid)
