Inside sources in the GOP are seriously peeved that President Donald Trump and his family can't stop concentrating on enriching themselves long enough to get Republicans through the November midterms.

Trump and Republicans are at risk in the upcoming midterm elections, due in no small part to regret from his own supporters, and even many Republicans who continue supporting him feel as if they are "walking the plank" on his behalf. Yet according to a recent report, Trump continues to focus on money-making projects instead of shoring up support from American voters — a fact that is worrying many of his fellow Republican politicians.

You can't say no to a rapist.

No billionaire ever had any concept of 'enough'. If they did, they wouldn't have become a billionaire.

Republicans upset that man who has only ever had his own enrichment as his primary focus at the expense of everyone around him doesn't care about helping them.

Color me surprised. Oh no, if they don't win then they can't continue with the heritage foundation and conservative plan, doesn't Trump care?

...no? What part of "he literally only cares about himself" do these people not understand?

Best he can do is start construction on other vanity project in two weeks. He will go on a rant and will brag about the big beautiful arch.

That and threaten the fed to lower rates or he will tank the economy.

His CNN interview where he admits he knows no one would build him tributes when he is gone so he has to... was a cool salve on these weary bones. Wish Trump the spaghettification of his anus.

He knows he rapes children, he knows exactly what he is

To be fair, who could have predicted that voting for a narcissist without a moral bone in his body would turn out to be a problem?

I imagine "enough" feels different bankrupting a casino.
