A Republican resides in the White House. Republicans control the House and Senate. But most lawmakers who have filed into the White House this week to sit down with the President haven’t been members of the Grand Old Party — they’ve been Democrats.

Aboard Air Force One on the way back from visiting Florida to see the damage wreaked by Hurricane Irma, President Trump fielded questions from reporters. Someone asked about Trump’s meeting with South Carolina Sen. Tim Scott, the lone black Republican in the Senate and someone who had been deeply critical of Trump’s both-sides-do-it response to the white supremacist violence in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The media organs that have so steadfastly supported Donald Trump, from the golden escalator to the White House, are turning.

President Donald Trump said Thursday that one of the signature promises he made during his 2016 campaign — building a wall along the US-Mexico border — will come after a deal to help children brought to the United States illegally by their parents.

The news that President Donald Trump appears to be nearing a deal with Democrats to protect those undocumented immigrants covered by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program is the second time in the last week in which he has openly broken with the base of voters who got him elected.

Democratic leaders Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi said following a Wednesday night meeting with President Donald Trump that they have “agreed” to a fix on DACA and resolved iron out a border-security plan — “excluding” the US-Mexico border wall that was one of Trump’s most memorable campaign promises.

Sen. Ted Cruz denied Wednesday that he was the one who liked a pornographic video from his Twitter account.

The Republican Party does not like porn.

Much like the rest of his party, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz is advocating Wednesday for an overhaul to nation’s tax system.

Sen. Ted Cruz’s opportunity for an I-told-you-so moment came Wednesday, when he was asked about President Donald Trump’s deal with Democrats Sen. Chuck Schumer and Rep. Nancy Pelosi to keep the government funded and raise the debt ceiling until December.
