Morning FRiend. Wrote this on another thread. At the risk of being pedantic, I’ll just copy it here:
President Trump has already shown his hand on his intentions with the budget proposals brought to light.
He is not going to be business as usual. That’s not him. But he can’t take on every battle all at once or he risks losing everything and accomplishing nothing.
Why some folks can’t figure that out here is beyond me. They think the Executive can summon the UniParty and in one action have them come to heel. They have no intention of coming to heel. They intend to make President Trump answer to their call, business as usual.
President Trump had to let them win a hand but he’s looking to win the poker game and go all-in later at a time of his choosing.
September will be a battle royale like nothing we’ve seen in our lifetime. President Trump is going to make it clear who is with him and who’s against him. If you pay attention, you’ll notice it’s Republicans trying to undermine his agenda at every turn.
One man, one fight at the time of his bidding. Stay with it.

I hope you are correct
"Pay attention?" Hell, you can't avoid it. The Reps are beating us over the head with their treachery.
Wrote my worthless Rep Congressman this morning:
"If you're going to talk, act, and vote like a Democrat why should I vote for a Republican? The Democrats are more competent than amateur Statist Republicans like yourself. I cast my last Republican vote last November."
I didn’t find that pedantic at all, but a fair argument. You win baseball by racking up runs with walks, singles, triples and the occasional home run, not by hitting a 10-run grand slam on every at-bat.
On the other side of the equation, there is the “ratchet effect”. Every step taken in retreat is territory that the Dems (not the cowardly Republicans) never give back. Trump will have to mount an extremely powerful assault to push them back and I don’t know how he does that with the Republicans showing every day that they are part of the Uniparty. Not only are they unhelpful; they are helping the enemy.
