I would love to be a fly on the wall at that meeting. Cocaine Mitch would never show his face at Mar Largo.

Not unusual for high ranking Republicans to meet with the leader of the party. Wonder when Liz Cheney will go :)

Scalise is a Bush League Republican.

All of the GOP leadership has been complicit in sabotaging our President.

“Scalise is a Bush League Republican.”

He used to be reliably conservative.

“Scalise is a Bush League Republican.”

Please cite 5 examples of how he worked against Trump?

I’ve always considered Scalise pretty solid. He’s certainly taken one for the team. I’d much rather have him in House leadership than McCarthy. It would be pretty useful to have a guy who took a bullet from a progressive fundamentalist to rebut the prevailing narrative in these times.

Another thread that select freepers like yourself turn into a negative.

Only people committed to keeping the borders open and the laws unenforced are allowed into GOP leadership.

Where was he when Paul Ryan was sabotaging Trump?

President Trump had to find other ways of funding the wall because the GOP refused.

The first two years of the Trump administration were wasted by the GOP before they purposely threw the House to the Democrats so they could impeach him and that was before they assisted the Democrats in cheating him out of office and closed ranks with the Democrats to deny the fraud and swear in His Fraudulency, Senile Joe.

He took “rounds” for the party. I’m gonna cut him a little slack.

I live in Louisiana, Scalise is the best we have. And I mean that as a compliment.

McConnell’s plan to ignore Trump and hope he goes away is already an epic fail. Prominent members of his own caucus are acknowledging Trump’s leadership.

I doubt you will see Liz going. More than likely her old man is slated for a golden needle. That’s why she’s trying so hard to get rid of Trump.

Steve Scalise was recovering from being shot when Paul Ryan was sabotaging President Trump.

Steve gets a mulligan from me after what he’s been through the last few years...Nikki Haley not so much
