Trump hasn't lifted a finger or put a single ounce of pressure on anyone to get SAVE passed.
He could have used Lindsey Graham to put pressure on Thune and withheld and leveraged his endorsement.
The old Trump would have said "you get Thune to use nuclear option on SAVE and youll finally get your Iran war" and Graham probably would have delivered
Trump SUCKS. Hes a lazy megalomaniac who only cares about his own legacy.
He would just threaten to destroy someone in the media in the past and it was effective enough. I feel like he's trying to do some big thing in his last term to be remembered and punting important stuff we need done that isn't as flashy. He wants to overthrow Iran or get a 51st state so he is the one to have done it.

That’s true too. However, it’s almost a certainty that it’s either JD or Rubio. Neither are great choices. Hence me starting that I’m not feeling great about the future.

I believe in Little Marco. He has gained confidence and bravado working with Trump, but still knows how to play the game from his time in the Senate.
Vance would be ineffective because I don’t think people take him seriously.

Jesus dude we may as well elect Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton as Marco Rubio 
Posted on 4/13/26 at 9:51 am to DVA Tailgater
With Little Marco, you are going to have to put up with interventionist military campaigns that gain us nothing and cost us money we don’t have. That’s just a fact.

He’s about a month away from talking about Corn Pop and calling crowdgoers dog faced pony soldiers

Marco has a chance because of the Hispanic vote. If he wasn't id so no chance. But he may just be the first president in my life under 6 feet tall.

How can anyone think this is appropriate behavior for any grown person? I know people will claim he's trolling or whatever, but he's an 80 year old man and the acting POTUS. Why is it acceptable for an 80 year old man representing an entire nation and our interests to post inflammatory things like this at work?

Trump would be so much better off if he'd just stay off social media and not tell people what he's thinking. Posting shite like this is just dumb.

His party has nominal majorities, but only by a hair. Congress is effectively 50/50. The Senate requires 60 votes to do much of anything, and the GOP has 53 on a good day. The number of senators and house reps who are utterly opposed to Trump regardless of being members of the GOP is enough to make Trump’s coalition effectively a minority party in government. As a result, Trump’s administration has only managed to get one mediocre bill passed in over a year.
You can call that incompetence on behalf of the administration or dedicated defiance on behalf of Congress, but it is what it is. If Trump could court enough Reps and Senators to get majority support in key committees, bring votes to the floor, and defeat a Senate filibuster, it would massively improve Trump’s ability to pass meaningful legislation that might outlive his presidency.
This is the correct answer, and it begs the question of why Trump seems to not care at all about the midterms.
If you're going to theorize about the hypothetical nefarious intentions of the anti-Trump Republicans, I'm going to offer that this complete disregard for the midterms is one of the things that is making me increasingly uneasy about Trump.
it could be nothing. It could be that he doesn't care just because he doesn't care.
But Trump is far more likely to be impeached by having more Democrats in Congress than he is by whatever plot Never-Trump Republicans come up with on their own steam. And it's not like he doesn't know that they are going to come after him as soon as they possibly can. They've already tired everything they can think of—including, at the very least, intentionally (IMO) inciting loonies to kill him.
So why doesn't he care about the mid-terms?
There's part of me that wonders whether he really is going to try to stay in office no matter what and disregard the power structures and checks and balances that comprise the US system.
I could be completely wrong about that, but...

It’s the own goals that are damn frustrating and destructive.
Makes no sense.

Still no explanation of how his trolls Catholics or how this isn't trolling his own Christian base, or why that would be a good/smart thing.

Why is this necessary?
Because populism hasn't taken over the entire Republican Party yet.
It took over the whole Democratic Party a long time ago, which is why they have voted as a monolith for decades.
But there are still (a few) conservatives in the Republican Party, so it does not vote as a monolith yet.
In 1994, they were pretty much all conservatives, so they voted together then too.
But starting in the 2010s the party started to split.
