Donald Trump is on a Twitter rant this morning. Apparently, they need to change to rules of the Senate so that republicans can do whatever they want with no Democratic votes, ever.

Here's two:

....8 Dems totally control the U.S. Senate. Many great Republican bills will never pass, like Kate's Law and complete Healthcare. Get smart!

The very outdated filibuster rule must go. Budget reconciliation is killing R's in Senate. Mitch M, go to 51 Votes NOW and WIN. IT'S TIME!

Now, let's leave aside the inconvenient truth that republicans couldn't get 51 votes on the repeal.,,,,,,,,,

What happened to this great dealmaker that we elected? He has written off the possibility of working with any democrats?

What a loser.
Here's an example. Trump won West Virginia by more than 30 points.
Those same WV voters sent a Democrat to the US Senate.
If the President had any political skills whatsoever he ought to be able to work with Joe Manchin on some issues.

There are others. Sen McCaskill (D) comes from a state that Trump won by 19 points.
Sen heitkamp (D) comes from a state Trump won by over 30 points.

Joe Donnelly (D) cames from a state Trump won by 20.

Like I said, if this President had any skills at all,,,,,,,,
