Senate Republicans are grumbling that President Trump undercut their strategy for ending the government shutdown when he said that he’s willing to cut “the right deal” with Democrats on health care.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) scheduled three votes this week on a House-passed bill to reopen the government and keep it funded through Nov. 21 but failed to pick up any additional Democratic votes for the measure.
Some Republican senators worry Trump’s remarks convinced many Democrats the president will eventually make significant concessions.
One Republican senator who requested anonymity to avoid angering Trump said that the president’s comments about being open to a “deal” with Democrats had “muddied” the Republican shutdown strategy.
There’s a good chance he starts slipping into the past to when he was a neo liberal donor to such an extent he had the Clinton’s at one of his weddings…
Like how Biden kept slipping to the “good old days” when he’s fight against school desegregation in the day, or push Clarence Thomas onto the SC, and then enjoy whiskey and cigars with Senate Republicans.
I think a big reason trump is so mad at the left for “not being nice” is he keeps slipping back to when neoliberal Dems in powerful positions wouldn’t stop kissing his ass for donations.
He could very well just not understand why they don’t like him now…
