DNC chair says 'bulls---' on air as Dem frustrations over Trump's 'big, beautiful bill' mount
The chairman of the Democratic National Committee let an expletive slip on air when describing President Donald Trumps "big, beautiful bill" on Thursday.Ken Martin, who was elected DNC chair earlier this year, called Trumps bill "bulls---" during an appearance on MSNBCs "Morning Joe." Network censors didnt catch the word as he said it, so it came out clearly during the broadcast."Dont make no mistake about it. The Democratic Party, were here to fight. Were here to win, and were here to make sure that we actually give the American people a sense that their better days are ahead of them, and that this bulls--- bill that they see right now in Congress, thats not going to happen if you put Democrats back in power."It didn't appear to be an accident, as Martin had already described the bill that way on social media.SCHUMER FORCES NAME CHANGE FOR 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' MOMENTS BEFORE IT PASSESMartin made the statements ahead of the final congressional vote on Trumps $3.3 trillion government spending package. At the time, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., had launched into what would be a multi-hour speech on the House floor to delay the vote.Final passage of the bill came on Thursday afternoon after Jeffries yielded the floor.During his TV appearance, Martin savaged Trumps bill and the Republican lawmakers who supported it, calling their actions a "betrayal.""This is one of the biggest betrayals weve seen in recent history, and were going to remind voters next year trust me this is not going to go well for Republicans. And someone said this earlier, they are handing us a gift on a silver platter," he said, noting the potential political capital the Democratic Party could get with the bills passage.REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS STAND FIRM AGAINST MUSK'S 'KILL THE BILL' ASSAULT ON TRUMP'S AGENDAHe continued, arguing that the bill will ultimately "be disastrous for the American people, who are their lives are going to be shattered and communities are going to be afflicted with a lot of pain over the coming years because of this bill."As he went on, Martin mentioned how his party was galvanized in opposition to the bill and will succeed in the midterm elections against the GOP and Trump administration, which he described as an "authoritarian regime" which has "an unimpeded path to do whatever the hell they want to inflict more pain and damage in this country."CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURENBC News correspondent Ali Vitali appeared skeptical of Martins confidence in the upcoming elections, noting how Democratic figures thought Trump was a "gift" to the party in 2016 until former Secretary of State Hillary Clintons presidential loss.
