Donald Trump's public rebuke of Mitch McConnell shows the creatures of the beltway have met their match.
When I reached the acceptance stage of grief over Donald Trump's seizing the nomination of my Republican Party last year, I predicted that Trump would meet his unexpected match, should he become president: Washington, D.C. itself. I theorized that trying to drain the swamp would be so exhausting, so infuriatingly impossible, that the brawler might finally break his own knuckles punching an intractable opponent.
Truthfully, I pictured a temper tantrum, where The Donald would get so frustrated he'd pick up his toys and children and go home to New York.
Call my prediction a fantasy if you must. In fact the idea does look, increasingly, like my own wishful thinking, given that Swamp vs. Trump is still a fairly even match. The president has not tired, has not shown any signs of fatigue. His right hook – delivered via Twitter or a spontaneous on-camera moment – is just as fresh as ever.
This week, Trump took a couple of swings at an enduring symbol of official Washington, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell – a guy who is so Washington, so entrenched, so establishment, his own wife is a member of Trump's cabinet.
Who cares if the next cabinet meeting is awkward? Not our commander in chief! Check out the no-holds-barred politician-shaming in this missive:

She makes an interesting point. Typically, in times that I’ve invested my hopes in politicians, it doesn’t take very long for them to be dashed. It’s like, they step through the looking glass on Election Day, never to be really seen or heard from again. But Trump really still seems like the exact same guy who came down that escalator in Trump Tower.
“the acceptance stage of grief over Donald Trump’s seizing the nomination”
Seizing? WTF?
How about kicked some arse and WON the backing of The People.
GFY Ms Card.
Thank you-

Im sure Trump was surprised at what he raninto when he won. But he has waaaaay to much self regard and pure ego to ever quit. I said it before: Trump is researching the law. He’s putting known good people into place. He’s learning the ropes and the ring so to speak. DON’T judge him before at least 2 years have passed.
“trying to drain the swamp would be so exhausting, so infuriatingly impossible,”......
Not “impossible” but frustrating, there one hell of a lot of “creatures” residing in that swamp and Trump has only been in office a short time. He’s just getting started and the “creatures” are beginning to realize he will take no prisoners, no matter who they are. I’m behind him 5000% and wish him good hunting.

The dumb ass rino’s do see the opportunity they have in hand, the ability to get what ever they need to stay in control but have blinders on. Trump should NOT SIGN a single document the present unless it conforms with his agenda. Go for the throat Donald!!!!
“dumb ass rino’s do see”..... correction.... DON’T SEE
Energy! Energy! He's a ball of fire.
That's not everything, but it's a lot.
