Its pretty clear to me that Donald Trump thinks that he won the US Presidency because he gambled and pushed in all his chips. He gambled on the nomination, he gambled during the election, he thinks he won because of his seemingly scary risk embracing behavior, thus as President he just goes on taking wild reckless chances. By his logic that is what "works for him".
His GOP Opposition on the other hand, are almost all risk adverse to a fault, John Kasich A Giddy Sky Grifter, Mitt Romney? A Champion Trimmer, Mitch McConnell An Inept Political Conjuror.
All these guys (an many more besides) were weaned in the "Conservative Echo Chamber", which posits one rises by doubting nothing & embracing "The Agenda".
So my point is, until some starts making sacrifices in the GOP or taking some serious risks, his intra-party opposition won't amount to shit.
Not to make a heavy handed historic anology, but Neville Chamberlain, Eduard Deladier
& Paul Reynaud all pursued risk adverse policies with that supreme gambler Adolf Hitler and did naught but bring down annihilation on their heads.
Thats my point until someone in the GOP starts wagering recklessly (and we'll know this behavior when we see it believe me) the notion of "republican opposition to Donald Trump" is pretty much hot air....
