Posted last night to Trump’s Truth Social account:
Is McConnell approving all of these Trillions of Dollars worth of Democrat sponsored Bills, without even the slightest bit of negotiation, because he hates Donald J. Trump, and he knows I am strongly opposed to them, or is he doing it because he believes in the Fake and Highly Destructive Green New Deal, and is willing to take the Country down with him? In any event, either reason is unacceptable. He has a DEATH WISH. Must immediately seek help and advise from his China loving wife, Coco Chow!
I mean, I guess he means it figuratively? Maybe?

Is Trump now posting threats to Mitch McConnell’s life?

1) is this a death threat against McConnell?
2) it’s definitely a racist nickname against his wife
3) lest we forget, Elaine Chao was a member of Trump’s cabinet, he picked her! https://t.co/EN8fzYGnoO— Mehdi Hasan (@mehdirhasan) October 1, 2022
And Mitch McConnell won’t defend his wife. And no Republican will condemn Trump’s racism.
It’s a cult.

Hardly shocking that Trump would threaten Mitch McConnell by capitalizing the words “death wish” – dog whistle invitation to Trump’s extremist supporters – same Trump who believed his own VP Pence deserved to be lynched by the angry Jan 6 mob Trump incited to violence.

Trump just mocked Mitch McConnell’s wife with a racist slur and issued a thinly veiled threat.
McConnell and Republicans will respond by kissing his butt and praising him.
The GOP has become a deranged cult. But…that’s the cost of white supremacy I guess.

Obviously the headline here is the death threat against McConnell, but it’s worth noting that the only reason Trump is even a force on the right is that McConnell refused to vote to convict him during the Senate trial, effectively ensuring he’d retain power in the GOP. https://t.co/IfluIbvdMo

Aside from Trump essentially making a death threat to McConnell, he just made an extremely racist comment about his wife Elaine Chao, who WORKED FOR HIS ADMINISTRATION! https://t.co/aXk8xs7WSs
