“Well, I cant believe it! Look at this turnaround. All of a sudden, every Republican you talk to wants to defend Donald Trump and wants to go out and attack the deep state to one extent or another.”
I think that it has finally sunk in to the Republicans that they are in the Majority.
Recall, Bob Dole didn’t really get it, when they took the Senate in ‘94, he continued to act as a Minority Leader, and idiot Trent Lott gave up the leadership to Daschele when he didn’t have to.
I think McConnell, like him or not, gets it now.
The same happened with Reagan’s first term. A lot of Republicans didn’t care for Reagan, then they saw him winning, then they climbed on board the bandwagon.
