You start adding up all the people that the president has insulted, we start with the president wanting to get tax reform done, wanting to get something done on capitol hill. You talked about bob corker, a battle with Mitch Mcconnell. Of course, a constant battle with john mccain, Susan Collins who wont be governor because shes going to stay there to fight the good fight.
