Title: It's finally dawned on Trump how much people 'hate' him — and he's pivoting to a new strategy

start to his term.

One adviser told Axios' Mike Allen that after seven months in office, the president finally realized, "people really f---ing hate me."

Trump's decision this week to work with House minority leader, Nancy Pelosi, and Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer, may signal that he's open to pivoting to a different strategy after hovering at record low levels of popularity during his first seven months in office: working across the aisle.

Earlier this week, Trump sided with congressional Democrats to bundle Hurricane Harvey relief funds, a three-month debt-limit increase, and a three- month continuing resolution to keep the government funded. The decision pitted Trump against leaders of his own party who wanted a longer extension on the debt ceiling.

House Speaker Paul Ryan had hours earlier called a three-month debt-limit increase "ridiculous" and said Democrats were trying to "play politics" by suggesting tying in aid for Harvey relief.

As the leaders appeared ready to agree to disagree, Trump reportedly interjected and said the group should go with a three-month debt-limit extension and a three-month continuing resolution.

One senior administration official told Axios that Trump's deal with the Democrats had come because "he just wanted to do something popular." The president, famed for his focus on the way he's perceived in the media, reportedly basked in the praise he received from "Morning Joe" after the deal was struck.

Trump has appeared to grow impatient with Republican leadership in recent months after several botched attempts at passing healthcare reform. His relationship with Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell has reportedly soured since the failed effort, and Trump has openly backed primary challengers to congressional Republicans like Arizona Sen. Jeff Flake, who frequently criticizes him.

Axios reported that by working with Democrats, Trump could be hoping to boost his popularity with the American public and engineer a turnaround in which he can blame congressional Republicans for legislative setbacks. The pivot could also be reflective of the new environment Trump created in the West Wing after dismissing divisive, nationalist figures like former chief strategist Steve Bannon. With Bannon gone, the more moderate faction of the West Wing, consisting of New Yorkers like economic adviser Gary Cohn and senior adviser Jared Kushner, will likely hold more sway over the president's decisions.

Trump's compromise with the Democrats may prove useful in the future as well, when he'll need votes from across the aisle as he works to push more legislation and reform. Republicans are acutely aware of that possibility, Axios reported. One Republican told the news website that Trump "accepted a shakedown when he was holding all the cards ... This is quite literally a guy who watches 'ER' trying to perform a surgery."

Here's why I want Trump. Yes, he's a bit of an ass; yes, he's an egomaniac; but I don't care.

Me Too !!! This email reflects how many people feel today.

I am now in my 60’s. Recently I received a questionnaire and request for money from the Republican Party and strongly agree with every question, as I have since Obama was elected.

Unfortunately the one question that was missing is: What have the Republicans done for the American people?

We gave you a majority in the House and Senate, and you never listened to us. Now you want our money, my money, more money. You should be more concerned about our votes, not our money.

You are the establishment which means all you want is to save your jobs and line your pockets.

Well guess what? It's not going to happen.

So far, TRUMP hasn't asked for a dime.

You might think we are fools because you feel Trump is on a self-destruct course, but look beyond Washington and listen to the masses. Nobody has achieved what he has, especially in the state of New York.

Here's why I want Trump. Yes, he's a bit of an ass; yes, he's an egomaniac; but I don't care. The country is a mess because politicians suck. The Republican Party is two-faced and gutless, and illegal’s are everywhere. I want it all fixed! I don't care that Trump is crude. I don't care that he insults people. I don't care that he has changed positions. I don't care that he's been married 3 times. I don't care that he fights with Megan Kelly and Rosie O’Donnell. I don't care that he doesn't know the name of some Muslim terrorist.

Our country has become weak, and bankrupt. Our enemies are making fun of us. We are being invaded by illegal’s. We are becoming a nation of victims where every Tom, Ricardo and Hassid is a special group with special rights to a point where we don't even recognize the country we were born and raised in, "AND I JUST WANT IT FIXED."

And Trump is the only guy who seems to understand what We The People want and need.

I'm sick of politicians, sick of the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, and sick of illegal’s. I just want this thing fixed.

Trump may not be a saint, but he doesn't have lobbyist money controlling him; he doesn't have political correctness restraining him; all you know is that he has been very successful; a good negotiator; he has built a lot of things; and, he's also not a politician.

And, he says he'll fix it. And, I believe him because he is too much of an egotist to be proven wrong or looked at and called a liar.

I don't care if the guy has bad hair.

You are welcome to pass this on, or not.

Thought for the Day "No country can sustain, in idleness, more than a small percentage of its numbers. The great majority must labor at something productive!"

I couldn't care if you did. I have no interest in Zionist neocons like yourself. Those like you are the ones that made many conservatives move to the Libertarian and other parties. You sound like a little child on here.

Zionist neocons

Neocons are not Zionists.

When I work for State of Illinois, we had a big shot engineer who wrote an op- ed for Chicago Tribune which was titled, "I Am A Zionist".

He was in the yard a little later. His car was dirty and I wrote, WASH ME on it. When he saw it he started jumping up and down and screaming.

They made the yard toadie wash his car. LOL

I think neo-cons are communist - fascist - no holds barred warmongering sons of evil bitches and many are Jews too.

Other than accepting Jerusalem as the capital of Israel I think Trump is getting the country moving in the right direction despite the best efforts to thwart him by unpatriotic asshats in congress.

WHERE IS THE NUNES MEMO ???
