Allies worry as Trump's woes mount
Republicans, including some allies of President Trump, are worried that the White House is ill-prepared for the sea of troubles it is facing.
Those concerns were made more acute by two dramatic developments on Tuesday and Wednesday: the president’s stormy meeting with Democratic congressional leaders at which he said he would be “proud” to shut down the government, and his former lawyer Michael Cohen being sentenced to three years in prison.
One GOP operative told The Hill the White House had “zero plan or interest” in developing an approach to deal with a radically changed landscape on Capitol Hill.
Come January, Democrats will be able to set large parts of the legislative agenda, frustrate Trump’s objectives and subpoena his allies, likely including family members, to testify before House committees.
