It's a natural alliance. I think Trump's a big spender at heart.
When you meet a roadblock that prevents you from reaching your goal, find another route. Looks like trump is going to do just that and hopefully wake up the sleeping obstructionist rinos. Time to show that HE, Trump is the President, NOT the other way around. I expect to see some change in attitude in the not to distant future if the rinos expect to stay afloat.
“I think Trump’s a big spender at heart. “
Trump is a nationalist and a populist. He will do whatever necessary to promote his nationalist policies. Pragmatic Nationalism requires massive gubmint mobilization. Trump’s focus is on immigration enforcement and strong military. If he has to ignore other issues, he wants the Wall, illegal immigration numbers slashed, and a strong military. Nationalism can involve bits and pieces of conservatism, liberalism, even environmentalism. This is going to be an interesting 4 and 8 years.
I think it's more that he has a big heart. In business, he prides himself at keeping costs down and efficiency in all of its aspects.
It was sincere to have finally said "enough" with callous Ryan and his enablers who voted him to lead them twice. Holding up financing for disaster relief for political posturing was not something he would tolerate.
The Republicans don't care. It's their job to win a few elections and keep America safe for obscene profits for their puppetmasters.
