Trump blasts ‘third-rate grandstander’ Rep. Massie for wanting to stall emergency COVID-19 relief bill

On Friday, amid reports that Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has indicated he will try to block the emergency COVID-19 relief bill by making a motion for a roll-call vote, President Trump is putting the Kentucky Republican in his place. 

President Trump wrote, “Looks like a third rate Grandstander named [Rep. Thomas Massie], a Congressman from, unfortunately, a truly GREAT State, Kentucky, wants to vote against the new Save Our Workers Bill in Congress. He just wants the publicity.”

Trump continued, “He can’t stop it, only delay, which is both dangerous & costly. Workers & small businesses need money now in order to survive. [The] virus wasn’t their fault. It is ‘HELL’ dealing with the Dems, had to give up some stupid things in order to get the ‘big picture’ done. 90% GREAT! WIN BACK [THE] HOUSE, but throw Massie out of [the] Republican Party!”

Trump added in a subsequent tweet, “By empowering the Radical Left Democrats, do nothing Kentucky politician [Rep. Thomas Massie] is making their War on the 2nd Amendment more and more difficult to win (But don’t worry, we will win anyway!). He is a disaster for America, and for the Great State of Kentucky!”
