President Donald Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan have gone public with their war against the House Freedom Caucus[1], a week after the GOP health care bill crashed amid partisan infighting.
Trump appeared to target conservative House members in his own party in a tweet Thursday morning that told his supporters "we must fight" the House Freedom Caucus as well as Democrats next year.
Trump's message came soon after Ryan made clear that if his party can't unify, Trump will likely turn toward Democrats for future legislative deals.
Speaking to reporters later Thursday, Ryan amplified Trump's comments[2]: "I share the frustration."
