Donald Trump Warns Republicans That They Are ‘Being Played’ On Infrastructure Deal

Donald Trump went off on the “radical left Democrats” and the “RINO Republicans” who are working with them on infrastructure.

The 45th President of the United States sent a message to his supporters via an email from his Save America PAC to warn about what Democrats want to do and how it will affect everyday Americans.

“Very important that Senate Republicans not allow our hard-earned tax reductions to be terminated or amended in an upward trajectory in any way, shape, or form. They should not be making deals on increasing taxes for the fake infrastructure proposals being put forward by Democrats, almost all of which goes to the ridiculous Green New Deal Marxist agenda,” he said in the email.

“Keep the Trump Administrations tax cuts just where they are. Do not allow tax increases. Thinking about it, I have never seen anything so easy to win politically. Also, RINO Republicans should stop negotiating the infrastructure deal—you are just being played by the Radical Left Democrats—they will give you nothing!” he said.

This comes after Biden made ominous comments on only doing the infrastructure deal if there was another plan in place by Democrats to get a more radical agenda passed via reconciliation.

Biden then walked those comments back after Republicans were furious that they believed, as Trump said, they were being played.

During a press conference where he was asked about the deal on Thursday, after the five Republican and five Democrat senators had reached an agreement, he said “If this is the only thing that comes to me, I’m not signing it,” which many took as a veto threat.

But in a statement issued by the Biden team on Friday he walked back those comments, saying that it was not his intention to sound like he was threatening a veto, The Daily Mail reported.

“At a press conference after announcing the bipartisan agreement, I indicated that I would refuse to sign the infrastructure bill if it was sent to me without my Families Plan and other priorities, including clean energy,” he said.

“That statement understandably upset some Republicans, who do not see the two plans as linked; they are hoping to defeat my Families Plan—and do not want their support for the infrastructure plan to be seen as aiding the passage of the Families Plan,’” he added.

“My comments also created the impression that I was issuing a veto threat on the very plan I had just agreed to, which was certainly not my intent,” he said.

“[T]o be clear: our bipartisan agreement does not preclude Republicans from attempting to defeat my Families Plan; likewise, they should have no objections to my devoted efforts to pass that Families Plan and other proposals in tandem,” he said. “We will let the American people—and the Congress—decide.”

Biden was desperate to keep Republicans on board after his comments sparked fury among some that they had been tricked.

“In the days since [the deal was reached], the primary focus in Washington has not been about the Plan’s scope, scale or provisions—but rather, how it relates to other legislation before Congress: my American Families Plan,” he said. “The American Families Plan… has broad support with the American people, but not among Republicans in Congress.’”

One of the Republicans who felt that the Republicans were played was South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham.

It was discovered, after the bipartisan deal was reached, that Biden wanted to do a separate bill that would have all of the pet projects that progressives wanted and it would be set to pass through reconciliation, which would not require any Republican votes, Politico reported.

“I’m not doing that,” he said to Politico before he got on the plane. “That’s extortion! I’m not going to do that.”

“Most Republicans could not have known that,” he said about the Democrats’ plan. “There’s no way. You look like a fu**ing idiot now,” he said of Republican Sens. Bill Cassidy, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, Rob Portman, and Mitt Romney who negotiated the deal.

“I don’t mind bipartisanship, but I’m not going to do a suicide mission,” he said.
