I don't think Trump's ready for this jelly. Read this Robert Costa tweet and see if you agree.

Pres. Trump never served in elected office until 2017. His interactions with Congress have so far included signing ceremonies, a gift of Starbursts, and leaders who remain wary of angering him or his core voters and therefore praise him, at least publicly.

Today, that changes.

I do believe that he's way out-gunned. It's true--he has no experience dealing with an opposition party with power and won't know what else to do but blame.

He'll try to pin the blame on Democrats for everything. The question is, how many people accept that.

part of why they punted on the funding bill ...

The question is how much the media will do its equivalency thing.

If it were unbiased, Trump would be impeached by now.

Hell, he wasn’t ready for it from the moment he flattered himself into thinking that he could be president.

I strongly suspect that when the election was stolen for him, he assumed it was merely more of the trump organization, only BIGGER! And Holy Cannoli was he ever WRONG!
