Trump vows to "primary" Thom Tillis, says he's "looking for someone" who will gladly f*ck North Carolina out of Medicaid

'Not a doer!' Donald Trump explodes at Thom Tillis for opposing his megabill

"Then a MIRACLE took place! Tillis is a talker and complainer, NOT A DOER! He’s even worse than Rand 'Fauci' Paul!" he added.

On Saturday, Tillis said that he would not support the spending bill unless changes were made to Medicaid cuts.

Trump responded by threatening to challenge Tillis in the North Carolina primary. He said he was “looking for someone who will properly represent the Great People of North Carolina.”

He announced he’ll not seek another term. In the mean time, I guess he will pick and choose whatever is left on Trump’s “wish list” he’ll follow.
