The Freedom Caucus will hurt the entire Republican agenda if they don't get on the team, & fast. We must fight them, & Dems, in 2018!

Trump found someone to fight….conservatives. He's a mainstream Republican after all. https://t.co/WKgqJYfGpp

Uh, wow. Trump appears to be calling for primary challenges to Freedom Caucus members https://t.co/5MP4sVCuFM

My favorite part of Trump going to war with Freedom Caucus will be watching "conservative" commentators agreeing with him.

Always a good strategy to divide your party when at 35% approval. https://t.co/htcdzHtgaM

We must fight the Freedom Caucus? Thanks for proving what we knew all along: you're an opportunistic huckster with no philosophical bearing. https://t.co/REZs9TwomM

What's new is the DC Establishment’s attempt to use Pres Trump to finish a war that began long before Pres Trump became candidate Trump.

Been saying all along Trump is a liberal Democrat. So naturally, his opponent on this issue is not the Democrats or even establishment Republicans. It’s the conservatives.
There have been times I didn’t care much for the Freedom Caucus. It was wholly ineffective during 8 years of Obama, but that may have been because the caucus was fighting a hierarchy of liberals in its own party. There are also a handful of caucus members I would not call conservative.
But in forcing the withdrawal of Trumpcare, the caucus did the right thing. And in doing so, the caucus demonstrated who was serious about gutting Obamacre and who was not. The liars who said they wanted repeal — Trump included — have been exposed, and the liars are not happy.
Sadly, there are some Kool Aid drinkers who still believe Trump can do no wrong, but I’m noticing that other Trump fans may be realizing that their worship of Trump was wrong . They may even feel betrayed. Perhaps there won’t be another 4 years of Trump after the present term is up. Of course, with the numerous scandals going around, this term may not last 4 years.
Interesting stuff. Is the GOP a political party or more like Trump, Inc.? Will the Fifth Avenue Principle continue to hold? I think so … https://t.co/05JO92PKNi

Pathetic. War on conservatives from the supposed anti-establishment hero in the White House. https://t.co/fwuMrHLjVi

It didn't take long for the swamp to drain @realDonaldTrump. No shame, Mr. President. Almost everyone succumbs to the D.C. Establishment. https://t.co/9bDo8yzH7I

I just heard that there were 18 Republicans that are not members of the Freedom Caucus who voted against the “Trumpcare” bill, while only 15 who are members of the Freedom Caucus voted against it.

I too noticed that some of his former supporters are finally waking up.
