House Republicans who once dreaded an election-day pummeling by Democrat Hillary Clinton were instead greeted on Capitol Hill Tuesday with dozens of signature red baseball caps bearing the "Make America Great Again" campaign slogan of president-elect Donald J. Trump, the GOP nominee whom few of them had been willing to embrace.
Until now.

They think they elected a sock-puppet. When Trump proves them wrong then they won't be any friend of his.
I don’t believe them. They’re track record on “commitments” is not a good one as we’ve been painfully reminded time and time again.
Even now thy are plotting, behind closed doors, how to under obstruct Trump every step of the way.
One thing I Really like about Trump, is that when someone does him wrong, he will stomp them into a mud puddle. He uses Twitter and Facebook as his media, since the MSM are now a Radical Political Socialist wing of the Demoncrats.
Oog-a-chugga - oog-a-chugga - all aboard!
Priebus and Bannon are signs of the direction Trump is going.
I think he is building a team — in the real sense of that word — and not just filling seats with impressive names.
An MVP quarterback and an MVP receiver don’t necessarily mesh. I think Trump is striving for the mesh.
They're politicians. They migrate to where there's power.
The treacherous, slimy SOB’s know which side of the bread has the butter.
“Pathetic fair weather fans”
When Trump said “Drain the Swamp”, I think he was also referring to the RINO’s in the House and Senate.
Sure they (all) are. We know better. Don’t even try to tell us they’re all with us.
Trump also knows that this is going to require multiple steps over many years, he isn’t going to drain the swamp in one day, but he will start the process. Just like building a sky scrapper he knows he has many steps in order complete what he wants to do.
Right now he has to “work” with these people for a couple years before they can get primary’d in 2018 and replaced with Trump Republicans
He’s leading a movement, and he knows this
...shoved in the back by Adam Smith's invisible hand.
I believe we will see Ryan syep down as speaker after President Trump is inaugerated.
I believe you are wrong. If Ryan is re-elected Speaker on January 3rd then he'll be there long after the inauguration.
