Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell ripped into the Democrats’ newly proposed $3.5 Trillion ‘infrastructure’ plan on Wednesday, calling it ‘wildly out of proportion.’

As The Hill reports:

Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told reporters Wednesday that the Senate Democrats’ $3.5 trillion budget deal is “wildly out of proportion to what the country needs now,” at a time he says inflation is “raging.”

McConnell’s comments were reported via Twitter by a reporter for Bloomberg and confirmed by his office.

His statement is the latest sign that the Democrats’ plan to move much of President Biden’s infrastructure agenda under the budget reconciliation process, which will allow them to bypass a filibuster, will encounter stiff Republican opposition.

McConnell also went on to discuss an issue at the front of most people’s minds as BIden’s economy begins to veer off the rails: the threat of inflation:

“Just this morning we learned that runaway inflation is continuing to hit working American families and hit them hard. Consumer prices spiked in June considerably more than had been forecast. Inflation is up 5.4 percent year-on-year, the fastest jump in about 13 years. Stunningly, it’s up 0.9 percent just month over month,” McConnell said on the Senate floor Tuesday.

  1. These poseurs can ‘rip’ all they want. These massive, pork-filled, inflation ballooning, liberal money grabs will be imposed upon hapless Americans, who don’t realize what a coup is, nor that such a scheme was imposed upon our nation in 2020. Only when we’re all living on the streets due to high taxes and costs of living, and when we’re watched like a hawk by our public official tyrants for any trace of rebellion against this regime, will the more ignorant citizens (finally..) understand why we’re hearing about such things.
