Republicans resigned to suffering through Trump abuse
by Susan Ferrechio | Aug 26, 2017, 12:01 AM

The only hope for improved relations between President Trump and the Republican Congress might be for Trump to stop criticizing members of his own party, something that nobody expects to happen.

"I don't know that there is much more Trump can do right now to rehabilitate himself with the Senate beyond keeping his mouth shut for a while," said Rory Cooper, managing director of Purple Strategies and a former Republican aide on Capitol Hill.

But some GOP strategists believe it's unlikely Trump will ever back down from his combative approach to dealing with Republicans who don't follow along, given Trump's nature and the fact that criticizing lawmakers cements his image as an outsider.

   The sooner you admit that you have a problem, the sooner you can get around to solving it.
   This is 'not my problem'.

Congress is resigned???  We're not.

Congress needs to stop whimpering and begging for pats on the head from Trump and do their dadgum job.

Indeed!  Why is Jon Kostinen still running the IRS?  Why have no criminal charges been brought against Eric Holder for Fast and Furious thing?

Why?  Why?  Why?

That little bleep should have been impeached, but we all knew that wouldn't happen since the democrats were in control of the impeachment proceedings.  Right?

Swamp critters sure as hell were!  I don't think party affiliation has a damned thing to do with it.

LOL.  Republicans had already gained the majority when that happened, so it was actually the republicans in charge of that one.

We're the ones suffering, not the republicants.

I know who the majority party was!  It didn't  make a damned bit of difference did it?
