Rep. Charlie Dent on Sunday would not deny a report that President Donald Trump told the Pennsylvania Republican that he was "destroying the Republican Party."[/FONT][FONT="]In an interview on "Meet The Press," anchor Chuck Todd asked Dent to confirm a New York Times report that the president angrily said he would blame Dent for the failed Republican healthcare legislation — and if tax reform succumbed to a similar fate.[/FONT][FONT="]"I'm not going to deny that," Dent replied. "I listened very respectfully to what the president had to say. But my bottom line is this: This discussion has been far too much about artificial timelines, arbitrary deadlines, all to effect the baseline on tax reform. This conversation should be more about the people whose lives are going to be impacted by our decisions on their healthcare."

What fun news! Trump vs the GOP! More fun than a cockfight. Four years of this? Can we survive the scorched earth politics of the GOP with itself?
