Having been a Husker myself for a few years, I can see the tension between state interests and national interests. It’s hard to blame Sasse for being opportunist on behalf of Nebraska qua Nebraska if Federal policy is weak.

I'm sorry, but your statement doesn't make sense to me. If Federal policy is weak, it isn't due to President Trump, so he should have no issue with President Trump. How exactly does Sasse trashing President Trump make him an opportunist? He's pandering to the 42% of Nebraskans that voted for someone other than President Trump?

Perhaps I am missing something in translation, as I really can't make out what you said, particularly with regards to the highlighted part below:
