In a press conference following their meeting with President Trump, GOP senators said they wished their Democratic colleagues would stop with the partisan politics. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell was especially frustrated by his counterpart Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi for skipping out on a meeting with the president over a tweet.

Early Tuesday morning, Trump tweeted his doubts that any progress would be made on the spending bill in talks with the Democrats.

McConnell, judging by his remarks Tuesday to the press, was not interested. He skewered the Democrats for shirking an opportunity to enact real tax reform.

The majority leader noted that he “never refused” to have a meeting with President Obama and accused Schumer and Pelosi of having a “lack of seriousness.”
