The icy relationship between Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump and Republican leaders in Congress may be starting to thaw.
Both House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Tuesday discussed having positive phone conversations with Trump after weeks of refusing to even mention the business mogul by name.
In both cases, Trump picked up the phone first.
"Donald Trump called this morning and we had a good conversation," McConnell told reporters Tuesday. "I appreciated his call."

Ryan: 'Trump called us' on GOP agenda
""Trump called us, we called him back and walked him through our agenda project," Ryan, R-Wis., told reporters Tuesday. "I then spoke to Ted [Cruz], Marco [Rubio] and John [Kasich]. I walked them through our agenda project. And we got very good reception from all of the candidates, including Trump.""

Showing how it’s done.
Good!
They need each other and it is certainly best if they all get on the same page, Trump’s page.
It was all so predictable, the king of crony has sold out even before he’s nominated
The people have spoken.
They ignored us in 2010 and 2014.. They will continue to ignore us in 2016
Man oh man will there be some red faces around here.
kudos

Cruz got two more Jeb donors on his team today.
Personally, I don’t read a lot into these things. Politics ain’t pretty.
Let the Deal Making begin.
Don't get me wrong. This is inevitable.
The GOPe had better start dealing with reality or they won’t even be a footnote in a Common Core history book.
Y’all do know that when Trump is elected, he will call Ryan and McConnell and tell them what the agenda is...And THEY will listen.....
I’ve added this one to my collection! Thanks!
Not sure about that. They have thrown everything at him and he’s going to get the nomination. People are f-ing pissed at the rino goper uniparty establishment leadership.
The purge will begin. They are on the way out.
Trump can’t do everything by himself he needs both
houses and chances are he will only have them for
two years. Still, if he starts on day one he can
get a lot rolled back and who knows, if he does
maybe we won’t lose the house and senate.
One can pray.
