Trump blames Senate GOP, not himself, for stalled agenda

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump blamed Senate Republicans, not himself, for the stalled GOP agenda Monday ahead of a crucial White House lunch meeting with Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on getting make-or-break tax legislation back on track.

The president also expressed understanding for former senior aide Steve Bannon’s all-out war on the GOP establishment, an insurgent attack on McConnell and others that unnerves the GOP and could threaten the party’s majority grip on Congress.
