Matt Drudge "Congress hanging The Donald out to dry. Making him do everything alone"

Congress hanging The Donald out to dry. Making him do everything alone! Despicable. No tax cuts, no Obamacare repeal. NOTHING

Republicans kept repealing Obamacare while O was in office [knowing would go nowhere]. Now... NOTHING!

The only thing we won was an election. Now the hard part starts.

Here’s the related article that Drudge featured last night, without getting any traction give all that was going on:

Limbaugh getting to it now—how the GOP is going to be Trump’s biggest obstacle.

And Trump can work with that. Being the wielder of the national credit card, Trump can slash spending to less than revenue, pay down debt with the difference, send debatable laws to the Supreme Court, refuse to enforce Obamacare failure-to-comply fines, eviscerate departments to creatively “comply” with laws, and threaten to do things he wants if Congress doesn’t agree to facilitate other things he wants.

Suggestion: there’s an exemption to the 922(o) post-’86 machinegun ban - Trump could tell Congress “I’m going to sign an EO authorizing all non-felon non-mentally-ill citizens to buy new machineguns, if you don’t pass ‘national reciprocity’ and ‘hearing protection act’ within 30 days”. (HINT.)

Trump is a 3rd party candidate who bulldozed and took the nomination from the RINo establishment. Then won.
*****************************

Exactly right.
They had intended to stick us with another amnesty candidate as they have done in every election since the last amnesty, effectively blocking the citizens from stopping the illegal alien inundation.
Yeb! was supposed to be the Designated Loser this time.
If Trump had not stepped up, we would have President Hillary Clinton.
And the Uniparty would be happy.

I so truly despise the republican party! This is exactly why I only voted for President Trump and not for any other republican. What do republicans ever do other than to bend over constantly for the asshat democrats? To hell with both scumbag parties.

I have a feeling we’re going to need to stage the BIGGEST MAGA RALLY EVER in front of the Capitol.

*************

It can be, and must be, done. Extreme rally. Big League.

McConnell needs some heavy duty ass kicking. Trump should fire his wifey.

Nah. Send her on a fact finding mission to Afghanistan. Or maybe the Antarctic.

Yes, as usual, McConnell is one of the principal impediments to getting anything done that benefits the American people. He is a post turtle, but a very resilient one. The challenge to all of us is to figure out what will finally get him in gear or out of office. We need a national contest to find that answer.

Exactly, I’m glad someone else has said it. They aren’t doing anything to support Trump at all! He is taking all of the bullets and no one so much as gets on tv to defend him. The only time these fools find the camera is when they disagree with him on something. For crying out loud they can’t even get his cabinet members a VOTE! How in the world are they going to get his SC pick confirmed? On Obamacare, NOTHING! Taxes, NO IDEAS. Democrats are going to end up pushing immigration bills before they Republicans ever do. Even on infrastructure the democrats are talking and the Republicans are hiding. No wonder people were saying they were just obstructionist, they have NO IDEA how to govern! Now is the chance you have be begging for for a decade and what have you done?

The GOP Congress better get with the program or there won’t be a GOP. They’re on borrowed time.

Exactly.

But for Trump with his own money and following and willingness to WIN, we’d have been stuck with Jeb/Hillary and had scamnesty. Would have never won another national race.

Trump’s our last shot. He’s got to keep pushing things forward.

I’d like to see a 10-20k tax credit for working Americans who wish to have a kid. Create incentives for the producers to breed.

“I have a feeling we’re going to need to stage the BIGGEST MAGA RALLY EVER in front of the Capitol.”

If Trump called for such a rally the entire mid-Atlantic coast transportation network would come to standstill.

We knew it could come to this. Trump is up for it; we just have to cover his six.

They are so used to doing nothing, they can’t figure out how to do anything. They’re still afraid of the media.

*************

They are worse than do-nothings. They are obstructionists.

They are only there for themselves and could care less about the voters. Trump is exposing them for what they really are so they detest him.

Problem is that the uniparty has a death grip on the state and county political apparatus of both parties. Conservatives in both parties will have to find and run their own candidates w/o the dubious assistance of party apparatchiks, who will be doing their level best to put the kibosh on any grass roots efforts.

I warned everyone back during the primaries, When Trump Wins he will be attacked from all sides... WE THE PEOPLE will need to be even more motivated and active after he wins than during the election because the powers that be on both sides of the aisle will be against him.

Make no mistake, We need to start recruiting now for candidates to take out Republicans in primaries in 18... Because while some will get it, many more will not. Don’t kid yourselves folks, our work is far far from over.
