Twitter post this morning:

@realDonaldTrump

The Freedom Caucus will hurt the entire Republican agenda if they don't get on the team, & fast. We must fight them, & Dems, in 2018!

Is this the "winning" you were talking about??

Yup. Hard to win when you don't recognize the enemy.

Oh I agree that the FC is an enemy of America.

I'm suing him for plagiarism after he leaves office...

Yes, because they are so stubborn with their head stuck in the sand that they will get Democrats elected and harm the country.

Indeed, they will do those two separate things, as you said:

1) get Democrats elected
2) harm the country

We are starting to less resemble a two-party system and more a poly-party system, and it's a good thing.

Well, I suppose it has always been roughly:

5-10% Green + Socialists + Communists
40-45% regular Dems

40-45% regular Repubs
5-10% Libertarian + Tea Party/Freedom + hardcore Christian conservatives

If you never want to get anything done except by judges and bureaucracy like Europe.

Maybe 3 or 4 parties works. But beyond that and you just have a bunch of special interest groups with too much influence in trying to cobble together a coalition.

What mythical creature shall we use to label posters who can't think of a counter-argument, so instead resort to name calling?? Like YOU!

Ogre?
Goblin?

I told you guys my opinion on Trump earlier, i.e. he's not a conservative. He's a pragmatist. Don't be surprised if he actually does some things the Dems would favor.

More independents than any party

Still gotta vote for someone.

Team over country... team over country. Been hearing this for years as a criticism of the Dems. Now the some folks are critical of those who are putting country over team.

Just one more time Trump makes me say **** him. "Get on the team" my ass, shitstain. How about YOU get behind an actually good bill. YOU get on board.

setting goals and accomplishing is what DJT is attempting to spearhead.....you're just too dense b/c the leaves get in the way....

no you don't....

that's the problem....you only see a person/party/politics and not the concept relative to pragmatic problem solving...
