That's right. Trump humiliated the entire GOPe. He never held elective office yet defeated 16 of the best the GOP had to offer ranging from senators, governors, to a brain surgeon and a corporate CEO. They have not forgotten what this rank outsider achieved with primarily his own funds and a campaign that cost far less than many of his rivals. And to top things off, he beat the "most experienced person ever to run for the WH." All the pundits and MSM were wrong.
My point is that Graham, McCain, Cruz, et. al. hold grudges and would rather undercut Trump as a matter of personal pique and revenge than help him pass his agenda to help the country and the American people. This is what Trump has to deal with, i.e., the elite political class that does the bidding of its corporate paymasters and special interests. ,
Trump has an enormous Ego.
Anyone who runs for President has an enormous ego. The difference is that Trump actually has the accomplishments to justify it.
It’s that mentality of “a pox on both their parties” which just means they are too lazy to straighten out the Republican party which at the local level is often A-OK.
That’s for sure
Thanks for that Steven,making a lot more sense to me now.
Yeah I think that may be a DNC chatting point. Probably no truth to it but I guess we shall see.I can’t see Bannon or Sessions going.
LOl,I got it bud,thanks!
Somewhere along the line we will need some names.We gotta have someone.
Exactly! Front running phonies looking good for constituents but the prosecutions never seem to come.
I’m guessing open or closed primaries are a state by state decision?
“Maybe Maine should merge back with Massachusetts.”

HELL NO!!!!!
I live in Maine’s 2nd Congressional District, which is light years more conservative than Massachusetts.
This district covers 80% of Maine and has the only Republican congressman in New England. This district also went for Trump in November 2016.
Maine currently has Paul LePage as governor....one of the most conservative governors in the country.
Maine has both Concealed Carry and Constitutional Carry.
No thank-you to Massachusetts!
?
Maybe even...
?????
I hear it's full of Mass-holes.
Absolutely stupid for McConnell to put up Garland if indeed he did,would not make any sense.
If we haven’t learned by now dems are just like muzzies. The more you appease them the more they expect.
Cruz IMO is working hard to be an effective senator in collaboration with Trump. Note his having dinner at the WH and now leading up the Obamacare team in the Senate—with an apparent actual repeal and free-market replace on tap.
The Graham and McCain crew IMO are both blackmailed and bought off for the Deep State military-industrial complex.
So now that we have Sessions we can expect some real action?How will it work?
In their defense, I can say that the handful of people that I know here in Maine who moved to Maine from Massachusetts are actually conservatives.
The Seventeenth Amendment (Amendment XVII) to the United States Constitution established the popular election of United States Senators by the people of the states.
I just told you the reason why.
I suppose with year after year of not getting rid of the bad agents you could have an agency full of losers,hard to tell.
That’s pretty much the consensus here.
For sure I don’t think we will see Garland.
