Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) absolutely destroyed Socialist Bernie Sanders during a fiery confirmation hearing for President Trump's Surgeon General nominee Dr. Casey Means on Wednesday, delivering one of the most brutal verbal smackdowns witnessed on Capitol Hill in recent memory.
The explosive confrontation erupted when Sanders - the aging Vermont independent who's been warming a Senate seat since the Clinton era - tried to grandstand about America's healthcare system during the hearing. That's when Mullin had enough of the socialist windbag's lectures.
"You've been sitting here longer than I've been alive!" Mullin fired back at the 84-year-old Sanders, perfectly capturing what millions of Americans think about these career politicians who've enriched themselves while accomplishing nothing for the people they claim to represent.
Decades of Democrat Healthcare Disasters
Mullin's verbal assault highlighted a devastating truth: Bernie Sanders has been in Washington for DECADES preaching about healthcare while Americans continue to suffer under the disastrous policies he and his Democrat allies have inflicted on our nation.
While Sanders was busy writing books and buying multiple mansions, real Americans have watched their healthcare costs skyrocket thanks to the Obamacare disaster that Democrats rammed through Congress. Now they want to lecture President Trump's qualified nominees about fixing their mess?
"The American people are tired of career politicians like Bernie Sanders who've made millions criticizing a system they helped break," one GOP aide told reporters after the hearing.
Dr. Casey Means represents exactly the kind of fresh thinking and medical expertise President Trump is bringing to drain the swamp and fix our broken healthcare system. But leave it to Socialist Sanders to try derailing qualified nominees with his tired talking points.
Trump's America First Healthcare Vision
This confrontation perfectly illustrates why Americans voted overwhelmingly for President Trump's second term. We're sick of ancient Democrats like Sanders who've been part of the problem for longer than most Americans have been alive.
While Bernie's been collecting government paychecks and socialist book royalties, President Trump is nominating real reformers like Dr. Means who will put America First and deliver results for working families.
The question patriots should be asking: How long will Americans tolerate these fossilized politicians blocking Trump's agenda to Make America Healthy Again?
