This budget bill makes it even more clear that President Trump is not only fighting the democrats, he is fighting the reublicans too.
What’s more, he is doing it on their turf where they make the rules.
It is remarkable that he has made any progress at all because not only does he have both houses of congress and most of the judiciary
lined up against him, he is also burdened with bureaucracies riddled with agents of the opposition.
His every move is opposed and subverted from within his own party and his own administration.
Most of the people he inherited, hired or appointed on the advice of experienced republican Washington insiders have turned out to be bad selections - either overtly or covertly detrimental to the president.
They are there to pursue the establishment agenda and derail the Trump agenda.
When President Trump brought Ivanka and Jared into his inner circle I didn’t think it was a good idea. But I have come to understand why he did it - he wants at least a few people close to him that he can trust.
With all the daggers in his back you can’t fault him for wanting a few of his own people around him.
And pray for President Trump.
agree.. thoughtful post from both you and NIKK a few posts down.
Easy to be disappointed. I am. I wrote the WH this AM. I know he isn’t screwing us but is doing the best he can with the hand he has been dealt. The crappy GOPe/NWO legislators suck
I understand that pretty well. struggles in life help us to see what our next steps will be.
Very tired(up at ER from PM to 6:30 AM with man of the house. He is admitted and his wife is a hot mess).. and a bit discouraged with things in my life.. Disappointed with people you hoped you could count on but boom.. Such is what DJT faces. How he does it is amazing and Iron M you are right. Having Ivanka and Jared close by and Melania a few steps away is good for him.
Sometimes based on reality we must make some hard choices.... he does many times daily
later all
