This morning Trump was asked about the four Senators who oppose the latest Senate healthcare bill and here’s how he responded:
I’m glad Trump didn’t lambaste them or throw them under the bus. In fact he called them his friends who just want changes to the bill, which is true.
In fact he even retweeted this morning Ted Cruz’s video from yesterday where he made clear he wanted to get to a yes vote.
Of course this is just the opening salvo. Remember when he attacked the Freedom Caucus over their opposition?
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!

So we’ll see how this plays out. But I suspect that if Cruz and friends don’t fall in line quickly enough, they too could become the target of a few Trump tweets!
UPDATE:
I corrected the video above. And because I mistakenly posted it, here’s the other video of Trump that some of you have already seen:
I’ll let you guys do the commenting on this one.
