Scoop: Trump readying "living hell" for GOP senators over nuking filibuster

[demmiblue]

President Trump's Truth Social demands to end the filibuster are just a hint of his coming rampage if Senate Republicans hold out against him, advisers tell Axios.

Why it matters: Most Senate Republicans have no interest in nuking the filibuster. But Trump's frustration is the first clear sign that the shutdown, which becomes a record on Wednesday, is getting to him.

"He will make their lives a living hell," one Trump adviser told Axios.

"He will call them at three o'clock in the morning. He will blow them up in their districts. He will call them un-American. He will call them old creatures of a dying institution. Believe you me, he's going to make their lives just hell," the source continued.

Another adviser emphasized: "He's really mad about this."

And, of course they’ll do his bidding.

1. This is cool

It would be great to see the establishment GOPers vs Trump MAGA full cage match

7. As Stephanie Miller says on her podcast...

"Fight...Fight...Fight, Big bag of RATS"

13. Ha ha ha ..... He is such a monster

[enough]

2. A true statesman.

3. Well

✌🏻

4. Hopefully he will create a few new Massie's

And get rid of the filibuster

5. Weird to realize that many adults still pretend his tantrums are "Leadership"

and that destroying the lives of Americans is "Real Strength"

I'm guessing Berthold Brecht and Dietrich Bonhoeffer both expressed similar puzzlement at one point in their lives.

6. He really needs to read the latest disapproval poll results.

Even his lily-livered puppets—at least those not in the reddest districts— will soon start to worry about his dragging them down in the midterms.

8. Oh noes!

It’s Sluggo! And, he’s gonna be mean to me!

Fuk … these spineless creatures

9. Congress slightly leans GOP at this point

If he pisses off enough Senate Republicans, they may just turn around and impeach his pink ass

It would take only a few crossovers to succeed ...

10. 🥱 Yawn. Can't he think of anything more original?

I'm getting the impression that some in the party are just a bit fed up with him. Whether they (or their donors) will do anything remains to be seen.

11. With a little help from the House the Senate could end his presidency

Now wouldn't that be something?

[Fiendish Thingy]

12. I wish the president all possible success in this endeavour

Kill the filibuster now, so Dems don’t have to when they regain power.

Expanding the court requires killing the filibuster, and it is the only way to restore democracy after the destruction of the Trump era.

14. If theyre really stupid enough to get rid of the filibuster,

Then they deserve everything that's coming their way, INCLUDING whatever trumps gonna do to them lol.

15. Ooh, he'll call you at 3:00 in the morning.

Do senators really need to be available 24/7? Put your phones on do not disturb so it goes to voicemail. Report as junk and delete every message he leaves. Block every number he calls from.

If they really think they’re so important that they need to be available all the time, then they should have a staff member monitoring calls and wake them only if it’s a REAL emergency and not a Donald Trump tantrum.
