"If I have any disdain for a particular political party in the Congress of the United States other than the Republicans, it is for the Democrats. I have never seen such a feckless, cowardly, incompetent, inept group of peopleā from Charles Schumer to Nancy Pelosiā across the board in the Congress. They have no guts whatsoever, no courage whatsoever. Thatās one reason my party, which I donāt fault for courage and I donāt fault for ruthlessness, even disgusting ruthlessness, beats them all the time. Mitch McConnell has no qualms about sticking daggers in peopleās back and twisting them while he smiles, but the Democrats seem to have no courage, no ruthlessness, no āIām going to get youā about them. And you can say, well thatās a positive. In American politics, thatās not a positive."
