RYAN MACKENZIE GETS HUMILIATED BY DONALD TRUMP: “NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR YOU” “MR. CONGRESSMAN”

After Mackenzie rubberstamps Trump’s cost-spiking agenda, Trump returns the favor by forgetting Mackenzie’s name and telling him to shut up
Vulnerable Congressman Ryan Mackenzie has spent his entire time in Washington bending over backwards for Donald Trump. Mackenzie voted for Trump’s historic health care cuts, his reckless war in Iran, and his cost-spiking and job-slashing tariffs.

So how did Trump return the favor at his rally yesterday in the Lehigh Valley? By publicly humiliating the soon-to-be one-term congressman, telling him that “nobody wants to hear you” and even forgetting Mackenzie’s name.

TRUMP: “Run up here, Ryan, fast. Nobody wants to hear you. Come on, just run. Nobody wants to hear you, Ryan.”

TRUMP: “Where are you, Mr. Congressman?”

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Ryan Mackenzie has fully debased himself and is an embarrassment to the Lehigh Valley. Mackenzie’s blanket support for Trump’s policies will cost him his job in November, but his boss never even knew his name.”

Washington Post: Trump’s midterm liabilities on display in visit to toss-up district. “When Trump finally called up Mackenzie, almost an hour into his speech, he teased the candidate, whose seat is rated one of 14 GOP-held toss-ups by the Cook Political Report. “Run up here,” the president said. “Run fast. Nobody wants to hear you.” Onstage, Mackenzie kept it short — and bland.”

Pennsylvania Capital-Star: Trump campaigns with Mackenzie at Mack Trucks plant affected by tariff layoffs. “Run up here, Ryan, fast,” Trump said. “Nobody wants to hear you. Come on, just run. Nobody wants to hear you, Ryan. Do what David did. He got up for one minute.”
