CNN)Returning from a high-dollar fundraiser in Manhattan on Tuesday evening, an infuriated President Donald Trump watched aboard Air Force One as Fox News called the Alabama Senate primary for Roy Moore against Trump's favored candidate, Luther Strange. What ensued was a barrage of angry venting at his political team and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, who had consolidated establishment GOP support behind Strange.
Trump, officials and informal advisers say, felt misled by McConnell and his political team, who encouraged him to endorse and campaign for Strange.

From what I’ve read and heard Trump doesn’t seem too particularly torn up about Luther Strange losing. Looks to me as if he’s going to make hay while the sun’s shining and thoroughly beat McConnell over the head with it, though.
I'm not sure there is any thing to "blame" for. If this is true then Trump stayed loyal to a prior loyal supporter (establishing his trustworthy bona fides) but ended up with a more devoted supporter of his agenda that the candidate he supported. Sounds like a win/win result to me.
...infuriated...like a fox...
Fake news, another tripwire for the folks at clintoon nitwit non-news...
CHAOS TO THE ENEMY!!!

‘I wonder if she’s a certain frenzied freeper here?’
No, absolutely not. Coulter can be misguided and go off on wild tears, but she’s very intelligent overall.
Our other FRiend is fundamentally dysfunction in her thinking. Being Ann Coulter is not her day job.
It was a strange decision, but stranger things have happened between strange bedfellows.
- - - Would have been better that he were to endorse no one, but that’s ok.

Never let a fantastic OPPORTUNITY go to waste. Play 3D chess!
No, Trump is not “mad” about the loss.
In fact he hedged his support for Strange by saying he would campaign for Moore if he won.
Well, President Trump, this is what happens when you are fully staffed and surrounded by NeverTrumpers.
You don’t get the straight dope and you end up believing the lies told to you.
Use this as a lesson to clear out these DC swamp creatures from your administration.
I don’t believe CNN.
Trump knew Strange was in trouble.
The narrative was predictable. I could have written their style sheet. Fake news is fake news.
What a Fake News Headline!
But what does one expect from the Fake News Network?
Donald Trump Admits: ‘I Might Have Made a Mistake’ in Endorsing Luther Strange Over Judge Roy Moore
9/22/17
“I might have made a mistake,” President Trump told the Alabama crowd before the special election on September 26 to fill the seat vacated when former Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions became attorney general. “I’ll be honest, I might have made a mistake,” he said for emphasis.

Even if this is CNN fake news, it is a scenario that should be true. Trump needs to be as saavy about the swampers as are his voters.
If he thinks you can play nice with those corporatist,globalist anti-American slimes, he needs to learn right now, with the Moore Strange vote, that the Deplorables are a movment,Heaven bent on rebuilding this country and they know who the critters are.
Trump needs to listen to Bannon and those others who have put their reputations and effort into deafeating these Rinos and Dems and put him in office.
Everyone should Tweet him. Tell him to rid himself of the critters who now surround him.
I can see unleashing a tirade at McTurtle but otherwise I can’t imagine he’s “infuriated” at the arrival of a staunch supporter.
(at least I hope Moore is... or else)
This is a win on so many fronts for Trump - in disguise.
Ryan probably wet himself a little when he saw the results.
CNN: "Mitch McTurtle lied"
Mitch McTurtle always lies....
But CNN always lies, so Mitch must be telling the truth...
But Mitch always lies, so CNN must be telling the truth...
But CNN always lies...DOES NOT COMPUTE, DOES NOT COMPUTE!
I completely, totally and absolutely disregard anything from CNN.
If they report there is a tsunami on the West coast, I will only believe it with collaborating evidence from a different source.
Hi, FW! LOL! Yes, I expect you’re right.
