Republicans Finally Get a Partner In Trump

Politico: “In the last three months of 2017, Trump has quietly racked up a series of policy victories that Republicans have eyed for years, securing the passage not only of the tax overhaul, but also reversing the contours of Obama-era foreign policy and confirming a spate of judges to the federal bench.”

“Over the past week, even Republicans themselves have appeared surprised at their own successes… Republican leaders, whose relationship with Trump has been strained since he took office by both temperamental and ideological differences, heaped praise on him at a White House ceremony on Wednesday marking the passage of the tax legislation.”
