Inside Trump’s (Current) Beef With The GOP
He repeatedly lashed out at the media during the event and skewered both of Arizona’s Republican senators, insisting that his coy refusal to mention their names Tuesday night showed a “very presidential” restraint.
However, the ad runs into trouble when the narrator suggests that Flake hasn’t been willing to work with the president on his agenda.
Flake said he was not the first Arizona senator to face a perceived uphill battle before a potentially heated re-election battle. One particular race, however, is likely to gain significant attention: the GOP primary next year facing Flake, R-Ariz., a forceful Trump critic. He floated this idea on Twitter, of course. In response, Trump tweeted: “Great to see that Dr. Kelli Ward is running against Flake Jeff Flake, who is WEAK on borders, crime and a non-factor in Senate. And tonight, this entire arena stands united against the thugs who perpetrate hatred and violence”, Trump told a cheering crowd in Phoenix Tuesday night. One can understand friendly competition within the party, but when the president meets with your potential primary opponents instead of you when he visits your state, that spells trouble. “Now all he can do … is just throw the chess pieces back in the air”. “I think we would be better served if that’s the President we saw more often”.
And he’d easily get reelected president in 2020 as a Democrat because he’d have spent four years destroying the Republican Party. He called this situation in Arizona “unprecedented”.
For 75 minutes, Trump ranted and roared his way through a fact-challenged, disjointed performance that, even by his own standards, could be considered epic. And the Republican powerhouses are taking notice.
But Trump is undeterred, and seems energized by the conflict – the upstart president versus the “swamp”. And in a tweet later that month, she wrote: “I’ve never believed it – many in my district do”. Jeff Flake said on Wednesday.
The North American Free Trade Agreement is a 1,700 page deal struck between the U.S, Canada, and Mexico that basically abolished taxes on any imports coming into the U.S. “Donald Trump just gave a free pass to his buddy Joe Arpaio, the nation’s most notorious agent of racism and bigotry, during a natural disaster that could hurt millions. Those are the things that people want, and those are the things that Jeff Flake as well as other people that dwell in the swamp are standing in the way of”.
Mr. Lu added the window for Mr. Trump to notch significant legislative progress is rapidly closing. “They’re not his employees. He’s made a cluster of enemies”. “Thirty percent would be (angry) as hell and mad at him, 30 percent would go with him”, and the rest would be up for grabs, the consultant said.
Nunberg also expressed the hope that Trump would be able to engineer the defeat of Collins in a GOP primary if she sought to become Maine’s governor.
“We’re going to have our wall”, the president said.
“I speak for all of you when I say our hearts beat for America”. The Hate Trump media couldn’t stop him. “He’s always having to fight defense because of Donald Trump”. Does Trump want to hand Schumer unbridled subpoena power? Odd is in danger of losing a primary to challenger Roy Moore.
A Senate Leadership Fund ad said Ward hosted a town hall on chemtrails and was willing to sponsor legislation on it. “It’s another to deliver wins”.
“The crowds were so big, nearly as big as tonight, that the people said right at the beginning, ‘You know, there’s something special happening here, ‘ ” Trump said.
An elephant never forgets. What if Trump, fed up by a lack of progress and fealty, is ready to take on his own party?
