Republican Senator: "Does he need to be so unhinged? He says the dumbest things.

[kpete]

“Does he need to be so unhinged? He says the dumbest things,” said one Republican senator who vented frustration with the president’s outbursts on Twitter and in front of the White House press corps.

“Yeah, there needs to be a coordinated response to everything. There needs to be a coordinated effort to just shut up,” the senator said.

GOP lawmakers say that President Trump and his political team need to overhaul their strategy to regain momentum and prevent their party from losing the White House and a number of congressional seats next fall.

They say the White House’s efforts so far no only could limit Trump to one term, but could spell doom for vulnerable Senate GOP incumbents such as Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Martha McSally (Ariz.), Cory Gardner (Colo.), Joni Ernst (Iowa) and Thom Tillis (N.C.).

[tanyev]

2. Hang in there, Senator. One of these days he's going to pivot and start acting presidential.

It's only been three years, he's still learning.

3. unhinged? really...ya think?

[catbyte]

4. So s/he doesn't care about the horrific policies. "Just the dumbest things" he says.

Fuck you, you fucking coward. Excuse my French.

5. "put someone in charge of..

...developing a message."

It never ceases to amaze me how upfront pols are about telling us just how invested they are in coming up with PR bullshit rather than telling the truth.

6. Their "strategy" now seems to have switched to "arrest all the sheriffs who don't

go along with our shit". So don't worry anonymous coward. The got it covered. If you do your part and keep your mouth shut, you might get to stay out of the Re-education Camps.........

7. Here's a clue, asshole - he's not acting unhinged . . .

He fucking IS unhinged.

Do you understand now?

8. Way too late to simply just change their spots and move on. The idiotic things that they all...

done and supported will forever tarnish them as being corrupt and undeserving of anyone's support in the future. All that remains is just how much they get beat in the upcoming 2020 and 2022 elections...I suspect that they will get stomped and stomped big time.

9. That Republican Senator is as dumb as Trump. He supports him

11. How do these comments come without a name attached?

Fuck you, old white man.

12. Uh oh, you questioned Dear Leader! Somone hit the independent thought alarm!

13. They wish he would phrase things just a tad differently. They don't give a shit what he does.
