'A Repub Death Wish!' Angry Trump lashes out at GOP again in early morning tweet rant

President Donald Trump on Friday took a break from tweeting about Hurricane Irma to once again attack his own party.

In a pair of tweets, Trump once against attacked the Republican Party for failing to repeal the Affordable Care Act, as well as failing to eliminate the filibuster, the Senate rule that requires 60 votes to close off a debate.

"Republicans, sorry, but I've been hearing about Repeal & Replace for 7 years, didn't happen!" the president fumed. "Even worse, the Senate Filibuster Rule will ever allow the Republicans to pass even great legislation. 8 Dems control - will rarely get 60 (vs. 51) votes. It is a Repub Death Wish!"

The president then ordered Republicans to start work immediately on tax reform legislation, and said they shouldn't wait until the end of the month.

"Hurry!" the president barked.

Trump earlier this week stunned the GOP when he agreed to a Democratic offer to raise the debt limit for merely three months, which completely undercut his own party leaders' strategy of voting for a larger debt ceiling increase that would have put the issue farther down the road.

Trump has also regularly attacked Republicans for their repeated failures to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, and last month he sent out multiple tweets trashing Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for his failure to secure 50 votes for a repeal bill.
