Why were you happy to have Trump as our candidate in 2016?

Perhaps you weren’t, but most of us who were, were glad
because he wasn’t going to have the old insider ties that
all the others have had for a hundred years or so, except
Reagan for the most part.

Did you expect Trump to go down to Washington, D. C. and
know all the players so he could pick good ones? No. Did
you expect D. C. insiders to give him good suggestions,
knowing full well they were part of the plan to have him
gone in six months?

I am amazed at the complete breakdown of rational thought
when it comes to Trump and what some folks thought was
going to happen.

Why he picked the worst people he could have, darn it. Yeah
he sure didn’t pick the ones we wanted, but did Mitch, Paul,
the GOPe, the RNC, or anyone else life a finger to help him
take advantage of the majority in both the House and the
Senate? No.

We had waited 28 years to have a clear majority in the
House and Senate, with a willing president to push through
his and their agenda, and all Mitch, Paul, the RNC, the GOPe
could do was sit on their hands.

You know this as well as I do, and yet you can’t grasp the
fact that nobody was going to help the guy fix the nation.
Is that his fault too?

After 28 years Mitch’s and Paul’s only plan was to get Tax
cuts through. Those sunset next year, or January of 2025.

Other than that, those guys thought they had done all the
heavy lifting that was required.

They refused to fund the wall. They didn’t defend him
against the Democrat onslaught. Those guys all knew the
Russian collusion ruse was a hoax. They remained silent
rather than call the Democrats out.

You know all this as well, and yet you think Trump was the
bad guy because he couldn’t spot the backstabbers in his
midst.

How would you have spotted them. I’d like to know, because
I wouldn’t have.

You answered all of your own questions. This is evidence of a closed mind. Thus, I will only add: DJT authored The Art of The Deal. The great negotiator, deal-maker extraordinaire didn't close the deals with congress. Trump wrote and signed wonderful executive orders, which were promptly overturned by the next occupier of the WH.
