President Trump targeted some unnamed members of his party in a tweet on Sunday, saying that “sad” Republicans who benefitted from his electoral coattails in the 2016 election now won’t “protect” him.
“It’s very sad that Republicans, even some that were carried over the line on my back, do very little to protect their President,” Trump tweeted.
It's very sad that Republicans, even some that were carried over the line on my back, do very little to protect their President.

You actually didn't carry anyone. Exact opposite. GOP lost seats last year and almost all those that won out-performed you. https://t.co/bAYgLHk7Ju

Here in deep blue WA even Republicans who lost had better numbers than Trump.

I get why a President would look for "support" but why is he looking for "protection"?

He sure lives in his own reality doesn’t he?
It's really pretty simple. Think we all agree its goofy and waste of time but – swing states-Trump votes vs. GOP Senate votes… pic.twitter.com/FWqaU3zFYB
