Oh, Politico, you comedic geniuses—you’ve just dropped what might be the funniest headline of 2026, or heck, maybe of all time: “Donald Trump can’t count on Congress to have his back any more.” As if the GOP establishment ever had his back to begin with! For over a decade, these spineless RINOs have been scheming like rats in a sewer to ditch the Donald, from the Never Trumpers in 2016 to the backstabbing during his first term. This pearl-clutching proclamation acts like some grand revelation, when in reality, it’s just the latest episode in the endless sitcom of establishment Republicans pretending to support the MAGA king while sharpening their knives behind closed doors. The irony is thicker than a DC lobbyist’s wallet—Trump’s been carrying the party on his back, not the other way around, and Politico’s treating this like breaking news.

Flash back to the good ol’ days: the GOP elite tried everything short of a public exorcism to exorcise Trump from their ranks. Remember the 2016 primaries, where Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio, and the whole Bush dynasty threw millions at stopping him? Or the Mueller hoax, where swamp creatures like Paul Ryan sat idly by, hoping the Russia collusion fairy tale would do the dirty work? Fast-forward to impeachments one and two, where Mitch McConnell and his turtle-paced cronies played footsie with Democrats, all while Trump was rebuilding the economy and exposing the deep state. And don’t get me started on January 6—the establishment used that as their golden ticket to distance themselves, even as Trump’s base kept winning primaries and flipping seats. Politico’s headline ignores this decade-long betrayal, painting Congress as some loyal sidekick that’s suddenly gone rogue. Hilarious, if it weren’t so predictably biased.

But here’s the cherry on this laughable sundae: the article itself details a few GOP senators voting to limit Trump’s Venezuela moves and some House reps bucking on Obamacare subsidies, as if that’s a seismic shift. News flash, Politico—Trump’s never needed their “back” to get things done; he’s bulldozed through their obstruction before, and he’ll do it again. With midterms looming and Democrats cheering from the sidelines, this headline just underscores how out-of-touch the media is, thinking Trump’s power comes from these fair-weather friends. In the end, it’s Trump who’s got America’s back, and the establishment’s perpetual plot to “get rid” of him only makes him stronger. Keep the comedy coming, Politico—we could all use the laughs in 2026!
