Radio talk show host Mark Levin tore into Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday for supporting giving President Barack Obama fast-trade trade authority, calling him the “Benedict Arnold” and a “damn fool.” (VIDEO: Mark Levin To Obama: Anti-Semitism ‘Reeks From Your Administration’)
LEVIN: So the Republican Leader of the Senate, despite the fact that George Stephanopoulos is an unethical, behind-the-scenes Clinton wheeler-dealer, he goes on ABC News “This Week,” McConnell, and sits there like this is a serious news program.
And he’s so proud you see, because he is gonna make sure the Republicans, all the Republicans– and trust me. Some of the conservatives on the Hill have talked to me, tried to convince me, ‘Oh this is really about free trade, because for the next six years a Republican can negotiate…’ What are you talking about? What that the next 18 months!?
You want to pass something? Pass it in 18 months! Don’t give this man any more power! You should be fighting him, fighting him, and not because of politics, but because of their survival of the Republic, but because the Constitution. You should be in complete damage control when it comes to Obama; he is damaging our country…
I have a bigger problem of Benedict Arnold, then I would have with any Redcoat during the Revolutionary War. And McConnell is Benedict Arnold. He’s the Benedict Arnold of the United States Senate and he’s a damn fool on top of it.
