Trump himself did an AMA on r/The_Donald. If he or his staff was paying close enough attention to FR to be reading all the comments on the Trump-critical threads, we’d have heard about it.

Paul Ryan set the schedule of House legislation.

Trump tried to ditch on Ryan’s plan and get on with tax cuts, budget cutting etc.

But he got dragged back into it.

I still suspect that Ryan is holding our economy hostage. Trump can’t get anywhere with the senate leadership. Ryan appears to hold all the cards at the moment.

But for Trump to make a broad, far-reaching smack at conservatism in general the way he did with that tweet — he NEEDS to CLARIFY or apologise.

Bol. Thanks for the clarification.

[RummyChick]

There is a real war going on from so many sides..now Ryan comes out and says to POTUS.. Don’t work with the Dems.

Corker comes out and basically says Shame on you, Ryan.

But Blue Monday Skipper says, "The problem is most certainly not Trump. Its the "respectable conservatives" that make up the Washington establishment. "

Perhaps he did not read your reply #89 in which you quoted: Speaking of Freedom Caucus, this just tweeted by Trump:

“The Freedom Caucus will hurt the entire Republican agenda if they don’t get on the team, & fast. We must fight them, & Dems, in 2018!”

and if it couldn’t get anymore weird..now we have this

For the umpteenth time, ‘we,’ doesn’t mean ‘me.’ I haven’t heard about it. That doesn’t mean someone else hasn’t.

How many times do you need me to explain this?

[af_vet_1981]

How does that strike ya?

It strikes me as the typical losing attitude I've witnessed on threads since self referential conservatives were completely ineffectual at preventing Barack Hussein Obama from being elected twice. I support the only conservative and Christian team that was successful in defeating him, and, yes, he ran for a third term in 2016 and lost.

Donald Trump stood almost alone against him, and all the professional conservatives wailed and moaned. He selected Michael Pence as his running mate, or was it God who selected him ?

God gave us a great miracle and a last chance, as it were, to turn this Republic, the last best hope for human freedom until Messiah comes.

I said...SURE WHATEVER...you don’t have to keep posting

When you post the exact same thing over and over and over, it’s known as ‘trolling.’

Please stop trolling me.

Thank you.

Today I will make a total ass of myself.

All I did was quote Trump's own words, you might want to rethink who is the active agent here.

[nathanbedford]

The biggest lesson he learned form the healthcare fiasco is not to trust the Congressional leadership to do what needs to be done. THEY are more interested in keeping their little scheme of fleecing the rest of us hidden from the bright light of day.

I do not see why Trump should not trust the Congressional leadership, after all they were doing exactly what he wanted: Rino Care = Trump Care.

[nathanbedford]

Russia will be the only force that could checkmate those intentions.

If Russia is so adamantly opposed to Islamic terrorism, why, oh why are they paving the way for Iran to get a nuclear bomb?

[nathanbedford]

It is much too early to talk about broken promises unless the talk is just a way of attacking and derailing Trump.... I am sorry for you.

All the talk I quoted was spoken by Donald Trump, perhaps you are sorry for the wrong person.

[nathanbedford]

been there, done that three times.

By the time Mister and Mrs. Trump got to the bottom of the escalator ride, many FReepers had lost their powers of discernment.

...and you are a sterling example of that.

Just like Ted Cruz, you aided and abetted the Enemy.

At least Ted Cruz has stopped doing so...

[Grin.]

The ‘golden snitch’ post was mainly about someone making a personal insult against someone else.

I sometimes ‘bully’ people into being civilized no matter which side someone is on.

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

The way I look at it [after calming down] is that Ryan is still holding the economy hostage. He wants to pay off his insurance monopoly cronies or else he can sabotage tax cuts, etc.

Please recall that Trump tried to wash his hands of this mess and move on to discuss the economy. Now he’s back in the quagmire.

“This is a post-election cycle, not a campaign cycle.”

I believe I may have to steal this because that one statement hits precisely what I feel is happening.

No need to say ‘steal’, FRiend. I think it’s a maxim. Others have posted it over the years.

A very handy concept.
