John McCain was undoubtedly THE biggest pain in the neck to Trump from the GOP side. With his passing, which GOP member (if any) do you see taking up the mantle and getting under Trump's skin?

Trump rewards loyal dogs and publicly humiliates those who don't fall in line.

Lindsey Graham plays the game, well.

Robert Mueller.

The only ones in the GOP who have dependably challenged Trump, have been those who are retiring at the end of this year. Of course, if John Kasich does decide to run against Trump in 2020, he would be taking a strong stand against him. That's a fanciful idea, however, as it turns on the unlikely survival of Trump in office for that long.

In congress, I'd go with Lindsay Graham, if he'd ever remember that he has a spine. Some of his comments regarding Trump pre-nomination definitely showed promise of greatness.

Nobody in congress has the guts to go against Trump. Lots of talk behind his back. Nobody is apparently up for the challenge. Pretty bad.

How so?
  • McCain is Dead
  • Trump is President
I'm not seeing it.

The idiot from Utah Romney. Its going to be his job now.

The guy will get more camera time than Adam BullSchiff and he set records.

"From January 23, 2017 until February 25, 2018, Rep. Schiff, the Ranking Member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, participated in a whopping 227 television interviews, clocking a cumulative total of 26 hours, 4 minutes, and 10 seconds on television."

I'm betting Romney will break Adam's record. Maybe even shatter it.
He will get the opportunity to bloviate from leftist media every time he disagrees with Trump.

Then every time he agrees with Trump the right will have him on and when he disagrees also.
So his time will be divided more evenly.

Maybe. I would be happy to see Romney step up to the plate and take on Trump. But I don't think he has the spine for it. I remember him practically groveling when Trump held up the prospect of secretary of state and then pulled the rug out from under him. Romney looked like a fool.

Romney? That rich fool should be shopping real estate overseas because this slice of hell is about to get hot. Mr Trump is about to take the GOP and send it where back it belongs. He has said as such for a long time and people tune him out at their peril. Romney should be like Carter and stick around his many houses except to shop and attend church.

There is no savior for the GOP, and perhaps both parties will fall this time.

People aren't taking Trump serious and this is a mistake.
