Trump’s Loyal Senate Republicans

And maybe that’s the reason Senate Republican fear Trump: Because normal presidents are not interested in primarying members of their own party if it means losing seats. But Trump isn’t normal. He’s much rather have a Democrat than a Republican who isn’t loyal to him. Remember “Mia Love gave me no love”? After the midterms, Trump trashed vanquished moderate Republicans who didn’t “embrace” him. He almost seemed to enjoy the Republican losses. For Senate Republicans, living with a president from your own party who would rather lose control of the Senate than lose face must be a new and terrifying proposition.

...

Republicans are in the process of risking their Senate majority and their own reelections, not for an important policy, or the good of the party, but for Trump.

At least if they lose like dogs, they will have been loyal to their master.

Congratulations to the Senate for passing their first show bill since the shutdown began 33 days ago.  I can feel they really care.

Congratulations to the rat House for passing the Senates budget bill from last month, and nine more.  https://appropriations.house.gov/news/press-releases/house-passes-tenth-bill-to-reopen-government-pay-federal-employees  So funny.

So much winning.

No bias there at all.
