Prediction: Trump The Reborn Bipartisan

Democrats Must Just Say No To What’s Coming

So he couldn’t get his “win” on Obamacare? The GOP thought that they would get to run rampant with their agenda and Trump would sign whatever they sent him.

There are three cracks in that edifice this week. The Russia sanctions bill, warnings from senators not to remove Sessions, and, of course, the Obamacare repeal that he has made them walk the plank on half a dozen times now.

The GOP insiders in the White House—Spicer and Priebus—are gone. Was it they who say forget about the infrastructure plan, let’s go big since we have the votes? There has been so much talk of the GOP’s deal with the devil and when enough would be enough and they would dump Trump. I think it will be the other way around.

So, here’s my prediction. He’s going to try and offer something he thinks the Democrats can’t refuse. It will be hard to not break ranks. But they must. Trump has shown on every conceivable level that he is not capable of running the government. Allowing him any momentum is bad for everyone no matter what is on offer.

If a coalition must be made with anyone, try to find 15 representatives and 3 senators who will form an emergency unity Congress and govern from there.
