Deficit hawk amazed Trump 'never cussed' him out to get his vote

Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) said Thursday he was "amazed" at President Donald Trump's "ability to comprehend the issue and know the facts" about the so-called "One Big Beautiful Bill."

Burchett told Fox News that he flipped from opposing the bill to supporting it in part because Trump "never cussed" him during negotiations.

"There were 14 of us in the room at one time, and the President was just rapid-fire taking questions from all of us, me included," the lawmaker recalled. "Trump takes every question serious, and he — I was — I'm always amazed, though, when I've met with President Trump, is just his ability to comprehend an issue and know the facts."

"And you know, another thing I want to say, too, a lot of people degrade the president about his language and how he cusses people and gets in their face," he continued. "I've met with President Trump multiple times... Never raised his voice, never cussed me, never degraded me."

"You can't beat him with a stick, brother."

Trump, however, is known for his use of profanity.

"One of the things the American people love the most about this president is he often says what they were thinking but lack the courage to say themselves," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt explained earlier this year.
