tOfficial Trump Payback Thread

I have a feeling we'll be hearing more stories like this, where Trump reportedly tries to avenge a slight.

President Trump's enemies list
The president remembers every political slight — and the politicians who abandoned him during the 'Access Hollywood' scandal.

Donald Trump is less than six months into his presidency, yet one of the organizing principles of his political operation is already becoming clear: Payback.

In private, Trump has spoken of spending $10 million out of his own pocket to defeat an incumbent senator of his own party, Jeff Flake of Arizona, according to two sources familiar with the conversation last fall. More recently, the president celebrated the attacks orchestrated by a White House-sanctioned outside group against another Republican senator, Dean Heller of Nevada, who has also been openly critical of him.

He thinks he is. He thinks he can just do things the way he has always done them.

between watching TV, tweeting, playing golf, going to church and sexually assaulting women, I have no idea how he's going to find time to do this.

I'm surprised he hasn't gone all Jon Snow to keep them in line.

Trump administration signals that Murkowski’s health care vote could have energy repercussions for Alaska

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump isn't going to just let Sen. Lisa Murkowski's no vote on Tuesday's health care motion go.

Early Wednesday, Trump took to Twitter to express displeasure with Murkowski's vote. By that afternoon, each of Alaska's two Republican senators had received a phone call from Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke letting them know the vote had put Alaska's future with the administration in jeopardy.

The response follows Trump's no-holds-barred style of governing, even when it comes to his own party. It is his first strike of retaliation against Murkowski, however, despite her tendency to stray from the party line and the president's priorities.

Alaska Sen. Dan Sullivan said the call from Zinke heralded a "troubling message."

"I'm not going to go into the details, but I fear that the strong economic growth, pro-energy, pro-mining, pro-jobs and personnel from Alaska who are part of those policies are going to stop," Sullivan said.
