He can stick with the Rinos and gain nothing in his 4 year term

Again, Trump doesn't have to work with the RINOs. On ANYTHING.

He can present his agenda to Congress, which he has done multiple times.

The inaction from Republicans have caused the base to boil over in frustration and anger. You had primary challengers lining up. You have RINOs declining to run for re-election. The writing was already on the wall. In 2018, there would have been another Tea Party wave like in 2010.

...Get nothing that he campaigned on...Or, he can work with the people who will work with him even if he has to make a deal...

You don't work with the very people who have a vested interest in your destruction. I'm sorry - although I understand the point about how Ryan/McConnell are undermining Trump - there is absolutely no way in Hell I would even shake Schumer or Pelosi's hand.

Listen to some recent clips of Schumer or Pelosi when you have time. Listen to the language. THEY ARE ALREADY ACTING THAT THEY HAVE THE MAJORITY AND ARE SETTING THE AGENDA. Trump may now be compromised because he wants to get things done. The Left is going to demand more concessions now because of this. I guarantee you in December, DACA will be the law, PP will be fully funded, and Trump's wall or tax cuts will be non-existent. You heard it here first.

“You could be talking about Ryan and McConnell or Schumer and Pelosi.

Trump is a doer. He doesn’t equate talking with accomplishment.

Also remember that he made deals with enemies often - NY government officials, rivals in real estate, etc. You and I would refuse to acknowledge liberals, but Trump deals with them in order to get his end goal.

The Republicans have proven themselves worthless. I don’t think he had many options. I’m willing to see what he has in mind.
