Trump tried over and over again to play nice with the GOP.
It got him nowhere.
Trump now has the GOP’s attention.
We will soon see if the GOP gets
behind the Trump agenda.

I read somewhere that Trent Lott, crawled out a rock
and trashed Trump.

When Lott is against it, I’m for it.

The GOP ‘wigs will have to decide if they want to hate Trump so bad that he can more easily make deals with Rats than they.

One senior GOP official, summing up the day: "He f----d us."

They had it coming.

“Trump tried over and over again to play nice with the GOP.

Basically, the GOP was trying to make Trump irrelevant, particularly with regard to his main promise, which is the Wall.

It’s quite possible that their long-term plan was to discredit Trump with his supporters by blocking the Wall, Obamacare repeal, and tax cuts ‘See, Trump can’t get anything done - he’s useless’. And also make him out to be a nutcase, such as when he also called out the Alt-Left in Charlottesville and many other cases.

With Trump useless and discredited as President, the final blow, they hoped, would come from Mueller. At that point, the idea would be to remove Trump from office, knowing that even his supporters are sick of him.

At least that was the plan...now it’s in tatters as the Republican leadership now has to fight for its life.
