Trump is also supposed to meet with the House leadership and the McConnell and some in the Senate later this morning.
*************
Trump needs to replace the entire Republican “leadership team” or else they will continue to thwart reforms and prove to be a bigger obstacle than the Democrats. Its already painfully evident that the current GOP leadership cannot be trusted.
I agree with your statement; however, I think Trump would have an easier time negotiating with the Pubbies in leadership than he would with Pelousi and Schumer (taking over Senate from Reid next year). Ryan and McConnell rolled over for Odumbass, so Trump should have no problem with them. I think it would be more difficult for him with the Dims holding the House and Senate (especially since Nancy and Chuckie love to get in front of the cameras). That said, I’d love to see a different Republican Speaker and Senate Leader - Ryan and McConnell have been disastrous and there are more articulate Pubbies out there.
