    Trump is upset that the Republicans in Congress refuse to be his loyal slaves.

    Instead they have several investigations in the House and Senate looking at Russian interference in our Presidential election. And possibly collussion by folks in the Trump Campaign.

    Congress is about to pass new sanctions on Russia, and Congressional oversight of any Trump attempt to reduce Russia sanctions.

    The GOP even has a Special Indendent Counsel looking into all this.

    Trump, thinks the GOP should act like his corporate personnel, and protect him.

    But Congress works for the PEOPLE, not for the President.

    Suck it up Trump, you're not at Trump Tower anymore.

    YOU'RE IN OUR HOUSE NOW!!!!

    Wow. So pathetic. Looks like Emperor Snowflake is in full melty mode.

    May this will help untwist his panties a bit:

    Trump is a COMPLETE JOKE.

    The living, breathing, definition of an UNPREPARED IMBECILE.

    The poor delusional naïve POS doesn't understand how politics works.

    As others have said these are representatives. And that word is used for a reason. They represent the people who voted for them. But the absolute bottom line is you have to earn loyalty

    Anyone anywhere including Kings and Other royalty have learnt what Trump has not. That if you want to keep your head in politics the first step is to earn loyalty

    Actually they understand loyalty well. They were loyal to Obama. Their media was loyal to Obama.

    Loyalty and unity is strength and power. The Democrats obviously just don't want the Republicans to be strong and Powerful...............

    Congressmen are public servants who swore loyalty to their constituents and the Constitution they need to uphold. I fail to see where they are obligated to be loyal to any President. This isn't England, and a President isn't king. Trump showed once again, he have no clue how the government works.

    Trump feels that loyalty is an entitlement owed to him by all Republicans, but he feels no obligation to reciprocate.

    and that is exactly what I meant. Part of earning loyalty is to show you are layal to others. Marie Antoinette would have kept her head if she had kept her head over bread;)

    His biggest impediment here, is this bromance with Russia. I may accuse Republicans of a lot of faults, but naiveté in international relations is not one of their sins. They know a bully and a dictator when they see one, and they know an ally from an adversary. They are not going to pretend Putin is not a threat and a huge global problem, for Trump's convenience. That is a bridge too far for the rank and file in Congress.

    I think the more important question is what has Trump done to engender loyalty?

    Purely self-serving. . . . He is frustrated because his threats get him nowhere and he can't fire Congressmen.

    He's a patriot. He's earned my loyalty. And there are millions like me.

    Do something about it.

    We are going to need Russia to be at least neutral, not fully behind China, at some point in the not-too-distant future, and any of our politicians that do not understand this are fools.

    The "Even some that were carried over the line on my back" is particularly laughable - my understanding is that most had bigger margins than he did - after all, he DID lose the popular vote.

    He whines more than a catty high school cheerleader.

    What an embarrassment for our country - an immature reality show host.

    These guys don't remember their Oath of Office? It clearly says

    “I, AB, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Donald against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same;[...] So help me Trump.”

    It's perhaps been a while since GOP congressmen, particularly establishment fixtures, actually sought imput from their constituencies. They'll come around.

    The Establishment transcends both parties. Trump supporters have always known that. Trump won in spite of the RINOS. Now it is time to weed them out and take them on. There are enough Conservatives and Independents being activated to take on the establishment of both parties! Funny how liberals have become establishment.
