President Trump is firing pointed criticism at the GOP Congress, ripping lawmakers for sending him a Russian sanctions bill he hates while failing to negotiate an ObamaCare repeal bill.
While tensions between the president and GOP lawmakers have been simmering for months, the latest exchanges suggest a turn in the relationship.
Trump lamented Thursday that the U.S.-Russia relationship is at an all-time and very dangerous low.
You can thank Congress, the same people that cant even give us [health care]! he tweeted.
It was the second day in a row that Trump ripped the Congress on both issues, and GOP lawmakers were happy to return fire.

Problem is, like Rush said, they dont care. They know our only choice is to keep them in power or to let the dims have it. They will ensure we have no choice but to vote for them or not vote at all.

Yeah, how’s that ‘lesser’ been working out for everyone already? Sure doesn’t seem to matter to the party one way or another, I sure haven’t heard any blow-back from the coup.
1st, more than 2 options on the ballots that I’ve used. 2nd, tossing these son-of-bitches out on their asses by *allowing* the (D), or others, to win might be the saving grace needed....same philosophy as O’Care: give it to ‘em in FULL. Hell, the (O) might actually do something in our favor!
I called this during the campaign. Had to be. Trump needs to start raising up leaders to primary all of these uniparty grifters in Congress.
It’s about time. They have been blocking him since day one. He realistically only has 18 months left, since who knows what will happen in the mid terms. Although I don’t see how a Democrat house or senate could be any worse
Traitors
It’s GOPe and they have blocked president Trump at every opportunity. Not surprised he’s fed up with them.
Trump will garner the support of everyone that voted for him for his promises (not just the R after his name). He’ll be starting off better than other 3rd party candidates in the past.
I’m more than ready to abandon the GOP.
That sounds like a real government shutdown. Do that AND remove the subsidies they and their staff get for their health insurance.
I could not agree more
I’m for 100% turnover in the next election
100%
Yes your damn congresscritter too
(Mine is that damn idiot Pelosi)
Dreams are all I have left.
Don't be fooled, a lot of those 49 would have voted "no" if their vote really mattered.
What’s needed is a new party. How about the TEA Party, with actual fundraising and resources, putting forth candidates? That way people have somewhere to go, and RINOs like McCain will be f@#$ed.
He should cut off their health care.
The only Republican I will vote for in the future is DJT in 2020.
it was veto proofed...both sides are making their move to force Trump from office....why people dont see this escapes me.
you honestly dont see what both sides are trying to do here??..really?...what Trump has done on his own has been outstanding, but they are not going to help him get anything passed...both sides are bitter and out for blood, and you dont see this?
exactly...they got Trumps poll numbers down...now they are going for the kill shot and get him out of office.
Obviously, but hell Reagan had it just as bad, BOTH houses were Dimwits and he managed to get a hell of a lot done. Even with Dirtbag Tk talking to the Russians behind his back...
But I dont remember Reagan blaming everyone but himself either... but thats just me.
Trump should have vetoed the sanctions bill. The veto probably would have been overridden but we would have seen who in Congress had the President’s back and who would stab him in the back.
