No other way say it at first glance this is very sad.

Cutting off his nose to spite his own face. Dumb.

He is carrying the myth that he can make deals with Dems. and Rinos. Never going to happen. Better to make the Rinos make deals with conservatives.

Dear God.

Three tweets attacking your sacred cows because they negotiated dishonestly, and you snowflakes are all up in open rebellion.

No wonder we haven’t had a conservative President in 30 years and had to recruit a New York populist; all the real conservatives retired because their backs couldn’t hold any more shivs from their own so-called supporters!

I have to say, before everyone continues freaking out about this they really need to watch the ACLJ broadcast from March 30. (You can even find it on ROKU) They explain things very well so even a child should be able to understand. The ACLJ has been at the forefront for YEARS and YEARS defending conservative causes, so don't tell me otherwise. But calm the hell down people and quit getting twisted up by those who are milking this for all the can for their ratings.

Seriously. I trust the ACLJ way before anyone else on this matter. That's all I've got to say about it. It's not war on conservatives. And yes there are purists who would rather see another generation aborted before making any kind of compromise and getting 80% of their agenda just isn't enough for them. Democrats are laughing

President Trump’s biggest problem is Paul Ryan, not the Freedom Caucus.

1)Ryan is bought and paid for by his wife whose estate is worth 6.5 million dollars , she and her family are democrats.

http://heavy.com/news/2015/10/paul-ryan-wife-janna-little-speaker-of-the-house-married-children-bio-job-net-worth-age-romney-pictures-photos/

2)Secondly Ryan is bought by the Insurance and Big Pharm Lobbies.In Particular Northwestern Mutual, a Milwaukee-based insurance company that also offers financial services. All but eight of Ryan’s 20 biggest backers are in the financial, insurance, or health sectors, CRP data shows.

https://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2012/08/14/the-big-money-behind-paul-ryans-political-career

Paul Ryan tried to screw the People on Health Care, and he will keep trying to screw the people on Health Care.He wants massive profits for his backers.The Freedom Caucus stopped Ryan and exposed him to the People and also exposed Ryan’s agenda to President Trump.Ryan does not care one wit for the People.Ryan is a man made by his wife’s fortune, not from his own effort or intelligence, or popular support form the electorate. He bought his way through lobbyists.

President Trump needs to turn that Ryan rig around, or he will become the lamest duck in presidential history.All the president has to do is rely on the People. It wouldn’t take much.

God Bless the Freedom Caucus.

He like most Yankees is putting more emphasis on the northern factory worker switchover And less on the near monolithic support he had anywhere whites speak with a southern accent

AND you did not see this coming. It is as it was be for the War of Northern Aggression. The South was the only place that was prospering. Look at the North. Run down cities in Illinois, Ohio. Nothing but blocks after blocks of old government housing. Crime out of control. Hardly any industry left. All of it has been either taxed out or the union has ran it out with such high wages.

So now we get a New Yawk Value Man elected by "conservatives" to build up the Northern industry on the sweat of the Southerners again. Obama could not do it with his regulations so the FERAL Government will try another approach. Just wait until most of the incentives will be placed on businesses that ONLY relocate to States north of the Mason Dixon.

That is why I support #TEXIT and it could not happen soon enough for me. Tired of seeing my money going down the toilet hole and winding up in those yankee's mouths

Interesting Hannity show Dobbs and Ingraham on this subject

They say Trump being stabbed in the back by Ryan and Freedom Caucus saved Trump stopping this Ryancare.

Garrett is a libertarian. Libertarians are obsessed with legalizing drugs.

Sorry, the available evidence says Garrett is not "obsessed" with legalizing drugs, so it appears that one of your premises is wrong.

‘There were reports that the FC was granted concessions, but then came back for more over and over again.’

I’d love to know specifically what Trump offered.

Maybe this should have been public negotiations instead of private. If Trump’s wearing the white hat, we’d know it. As it is, even Rush is getting critical of Trump:

RUSH: A quick question, ladies and gentlemen, right to you from the EIB Network.

Should a Democrat, any Democrat, now praise President Trump’s good judgment for bashing the House Freedom Caucus?
Should that happen?

Because that’s what President Trump has done.

Too bad Trump’s negotiations were behind closed doors.

‘Three tweets attacking your sacred cows because they negotiated dishonestly ...’

We know that Paul Ryan was dishonest about this bill. And secretive. He tried to blitz us.

And now Trump is siding with the liar against a numbero f people who say they were being honest.

A Republican Has Revived Bernie's Bill To End The Federal Weed Ban

So-called conservatives helping Bernie Sanders legalize drugs will end up hurting working-class families.

Anyone helping Bernie Sanders advance his legislative agenda is retarded.

Does the word "retarded" upset you as much as the word "obsessed?"

As long as pot remains illegal we help our economy. Once it’s legal, we would import it. It would be a huge dent in our trade deficit.

I don't care about the economy.

I care about little kids being raised by parents who are addicted to drugs.

It is just sick to pretend that we will all be better off if drugs are legalized.

This could have been avoided if the FC had gone behind closed doors and worked out a deal privately. No one should have been allowed to leave the room until a consensus was reached.

Isn't part of their grievance based on, that RYNO disallowed any such participation?

They may be wrong in tactics, but absolutely right on guaranteed issue.

Abandoning your claims about "obsessions", I see - good move.

So-called conservatives helping Bernie Sanders legalize drugs will end up hurting working-class families.

Increasing criminals' means and motive for violence, which is the primary effect of drug criminalization, hurts working-class families.

Anyone helping Bernie Sanders advance his legislative agenda is retarded.

So you're calling Trump retarded: "Bernie Sanders: Donald Trump Is Right About Big Pharma"

“I don’t care about the economy. I care about little kids being raised by parents who are addicted to drugs.”

I just offered you a tool to persuade more people to keep pot illegal.

It’s not about your motivation. It helps to consider entire groups’ motivations and how to influence them.

I’ll add this — I too don’t like our nation being brain-numbed and confused by drugs. Nor do I like apartments and parking lots to be bombarded with loud sounds either.

Those things distract people from thinking. And we all need to use our brains more.

Where's the evidence that drug criminalization has done anything to lessen this problem?

We don't import it now?
