Frustrated Trump slams Republicans

WASHINGTON – The Associated Press

President Donald Trump is taking swipes at his fellow Republicans. In a series of tweets, the president is accusing Republicans of not protecting him and criticizing their handling of the health care overhaul.

Trumps’ frustrations with Republicans surfaced anew on July 23 when he tweeted, “It’s very sad that Republicans, even some that were carried over the line on my back, do very little to protect their President.”

It’s not clear in what way Trump sees a lack of protection. But a few hours later he criticized the Republican effort to do away with President Barack Obama’s health care law.

In that tweet, Trump said, “If Republicans don’t Repeal and Replace the disastrous ObamaCare, the repercussions will be far greater than any of them understand!”
