Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., criticized Senate Democrats on Friday for kowtowing to progressive activists and trying to block the Senate's work in order to fight back against President Trump's election.
"As you can imagine, the Democrats weren't too happy about that," McConnell said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition conference in Washington about Trump's victory. "Actually, they haven't been happy about much of anything these days. They've got a rabid left-wing base that still — believe it or not — still, almost six months later, can't get over the results of the election."
"It continues to push them in all kinds of wild directions," McConnell said. "Remember when Democrats used to complain about obstruction? That sound familiar to you? It doesn't seem like it was that long ago, because it wasn't that long ago.
These days though, Democrats are bowing to the far-left demand for complete and total opposition," he said. "They're doing everything they can to tie the Senate in knots. They're forcing procedural hurdles on just about everything. They're even gumming up works for non-controversial nominees for no other reason than to delay for it's own sake. It's what I call blind obstruction. In other words, pointless. It doesn't change the outcome. I don't think it's going to let up anytime soon. But neither are we, I assure you."
