WASHINGTON — White House aides tend to shield President Donald Trump from opinions that diverge from his own worldview, but this afternoon, he got chewed out by one of his fellow Republicans at the U.S.
Capitol.
After four Senate Republicans bucked the president last night and voted to limit his ability to wage war against Iran without congressional approval, the president aired his frustration with members of his own party at today’s Senate Republican Party lunch at the Capitol.
But Sen.
Bill Cassidy (R-LA) — one of the Republicans who sent Trump a harsh rebuke last night — was having none of it, especially after Trump reportedly told him to sit down.
“I stood and said, ‘You have not told the American people what's going on.
It's lasted four months.
Our original objectives have not been achieved, and I want to know what's going on,'” Cassidy told congressional reporters after the heated exchange.
Cassidy said he’d heard it all before from Trump.
“The president just kind of talked and talked and talked and talked and talked,” Cassidy bemoaned.
“I lost my temper,” Cassidy admitted, before quipping, “It’s the Irish in me.”
But it seems to be more than the Irish in the retiring senator who recently lost a primary challenge to Rep.
Julia Letlow (R-LA), a more MAGA-aligned lawmaker who had the backing of President Trump.
According to Sen.
John Kennedy (R-LA), Trump was “mad as a murder hornet about the war power vote.”
But when facing the congressional press corps after the closed-door meeting, the president put on a happy face for the cameras.
“I think we had a really great meeting, and we’re very proud of the party,” Trump told the congressional press corps after the meeting.
“And we like the leader, we like everybody — really in the room, I don’t like a few people, but that’s okay, I think you know who they are.
I’ll give you that information someday.”
Few to no Republican Senators were buying what the president was selling this time.
“It was not a good discussion,” Sen.
Roger Marshall (R-KS) told reporters after the meeting.
“But you know, sometimes two guys just have to get it off their chest.”
