Trump also criticized Senate rules requiring 60 votes to overcome a filibuster in a series of tweets Saturday morning.
"Republican Senate must get rid of 60 vote NOW! It is killing the R Party, allows 8 Dems to control country. 200 Bills sit in Senate. A JOKE!" he tweeted.
The Senate rejected a measure to repeal parts of the Affordable Care Act Friday morning.
