Top GOP officials and senators say White House chaos and impulsiveness are crippling efforts to expand the Republican Senate majority in 2018, unraveling long-laid plans and needlessly jeopardizing incumbents.
There's a widespread sense of exasperation with the president, interviews with nearly two dozen senior Republicans reveal, and deep frustration with an administration they believe doesnt fully grasp what it will take to preserve the narrow majority or add to it.
The most recent flash point involves Nevada Sen. Dean Heller, who was attacked by a White House-sanctioned outside group after announcing his opposition to the now stalled Obamacare repeal bill. Heller, the most endangered GOP incumbent up for reelection in 2018, was initially targeted with a surprise $1 million digital, TV and radio assault an act of political retaliation that stunned senators and other top GOP officials.
The TV and radio commercials, produced by America First Policies which is staffed by a number of Trumps top campaign aides accused Heller of refusing to keep his promise to dismantle Obamacare.

Top Americans With Brains say White House chaos and impulsiveness are crippling efforts to stay healthy, unraveling long-laid plans and needlessly jeopardizing life.
There's a widespread sense of exasperation with the president, interviews with nearly two dozen Americans With Brains reveal, and deep frustration with an administration they believe doesnt fully grasp what it will take to preserve life.
The most recent flash point involves Nevada Sen. Dean Heller, who was attacked by a White House-sanctioned outside group of fascists after announcing his opposition to the now stalled Obamacare repeal bill. Heller, the most endangered GOP incumbent, and one of the few with several functioning brain cells, up for reelection in 2018, was initially targeted with a surprise $1 million digital, TV and radio assault an act of political retaliation that stunned Americans With Brains.
The TV and radio commercials, produced by America Last/Russia First Policies which is staffed by a number of Trumps top emotionally disturbed aides accused Heller of refusing to keep his promise to dismantle Obamacare and kill Americans, especially those with brains.

They carved up areas and stayed in their own backyards. The only thing that surprises me about this is that the repubs are surprised by Twitler's actions. This has been his MO for as long as he's been alive. Guess they got confused and thought he'd start acting presidential after he got elected. Silly repubs, they been tricked.
