https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=sslIn the LA Times today: What's behind Republican voters' support of Trump? Anger at Republicans.
By Mark Z. Barabak
After years of raging against President Obama, unhappy conservatives have a new target for their anger and disgust: the Republicans in Congress.
The GOP seized control of the House in 2010 and four years later took the Senate. Yet even with those majorities, Republican lawmakers have failed to achieve such conservative priorities as rolling back Obamacare, their derisive name for the national healthcare law, or cracking down harder on illegal immigration.
The controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline is no closer to being built indeed, it may soon be dead tough antiabortion legislation has languished in the Senate, and a fiercely disputed nuclear deal with Iran seems virtually certain to take effect, despite near-unanimous opposition from Republicans in Congress.
In short, as many see it, the promise of the 2010 tea party movement and its 2014 echo have been dashed on the marble steps of the Capitol.
