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 can’t 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.

Mr. President....SHUT IT DOWN!
Congress wants to play hardball...Shut it down.
In what period does he slay them and wipe out the whole gene pool?
I do that but knew what you meant and agree with you.
Laying this on Trump is not completely correct. Congress don’t want to change their sweet deal.
What I’d like to see is for him to lock all the doors to the crapitol and the office buildings while they are gone and leave them locked.
Show the sheeple that we can do without them because they don’t do anything worthwhile anyway.
CLOSED FOR RENOVATION
Good. GOPe sucks.
Exactly. It’s like the malicious ex-wife who turns the children against their dad because she hates her ex-husband more than she loves her children.
The more the GOPe like Lindsey Graham and John McCain hate Russia the more I like Russia.
Trump has shown the country that many R’s are not really republican, and are Dems masquerading as republicans to infiltrate the GOP.
That is why McCain, Graham Collins, Flake etc are all pissed off that Trump won.
They started it. LOL
GOPe can never pass an 0bamaCare repeal, because they really love 0bamaCare.
0bamaCare continues to accrue power to the D.C. Establishment at the expense of the People. That is what the GOPe and the Democrats really care about.
If there were any chance 0bamaCare could have been repealed, another 20 GOPe Senators would have stepped out of the woodwork to oppose repeal.
There are really only about 20 out of 100 Senators who REALLY want to repeal 0bamaCare. The rest are poseurs.
Time to primary every single GOP candidate. Too often people say, “ my politicians are fine’ vote out the other state’s politicians.” Vote them all out and let’s clean up this mess.
CONgre$$ is on a mission.. To destroy itself and all those it aims its retarded operatives at.
Paul Ryan WAS primaried. Sarah Palin endorsed Ryan’s opponent. Candidate Donald Trump spoke highly of Ryan’s opponent, Paul Nehlen. Ryan won 86%-14%.
>McCain is truly a spiteful child. He truly believes being a Senator is his entitlement. Trump shouldn’t have said what he said. It was over the top. But McCain is no patriot.
Trump was right about McCain, he’s no hero. The guy sold out his fellow POWs and he’s selling us out today.
> First rule of Management, “Everything is your fault.”
First rule of nevertrumpers: Everything is Trump’s fault even the stuff he can’t control like congress and the courts.
>The more the GOPe like Lindsey Graham and John McCain hate Russia the more I like Russia.
With the passage of the sanctions bill Russia’s decided that war with the US inevitable. They’re now our external enemies and they’re they’re fighting us on every front short of war.
However it’s clear that our domestic enemies are a much greater danger to the future of this country.
About time.
Establishment Conservatives Plot to Remove President Trump from Office

If McCain hadn’t voted no there were a half a dozen others who voted Tea, waiting to bring out their knife if needed. There was Heller, Alexander, Flake and others who were able to cast a sham vote because McCain had their back. Had McCain changed his mind one of those traitors would certainly have changed their vote.

BINGO! You want to see govt shit their collective pants?
- Make all votes blind.
- No tallies until the final is cast.
THEN we’ll get to see whom thinks what. No more hiding behind these sham “well, you’re up for election, so XYZ will take the hit...” farces.
Greatest deliberative body my ass. I can’t wait to see what the Pres will be saying vs. this blatant, unconstitutional power grab.
If I were president Trump I would recess appoint anyway, I would proclaim the so-called “pro-forma” sessions “fake sessions”, and have no authority on the office of the President as to recess appointments. Time to fight!
