Retiring Rep. Ryan Costello (R-PA) took to Twitter on Wednesday to vent about his anger towards Donald Trump for causing Republicans to lose control of the House of Representatives.
Trump on Wednesday read off a list of GOP lawmakers who distanced themselves from him during the campaign and said they deserved blame for not “embracing” him.
Costello blamed Trump for Republicans losing the House majority. He tweeted during Trump’s press conference:
“To deal with harassment and filth spewed at GOP members of Congress in tough seats every day for two years, because of [Trump],” he began. “To bite your lip more times [than] you’d care to; to disagree and separate from POTUS on principle and civility in your campaign; to lose because of POTUS and have him piss on you. Angers me to my core.”

Costello was not up for reelection this year as he’s retiring, but he did watch his seat being taken over by Democrat Chrissy Houlahan.
