After reaching a deal to proceed with bipartisan legislation on sanctions against Russia, in response to the foreign adversary’s interference in our election, the House of Representatives passed the bill Tuesday with overwhelming support, 419 to 3.
The bill, which includes sanctions against Iran and North Korea as well, puts strict limits on Trump’s ability to waive or override the measures, in direct contradiction to the White House’s demands.
Coupled with the Senate’s bill, which passed in June by a vote of 98 to 2, that comes to 517 voices daring Trump to stand with his own country, or to blatantly take sides with Russian President Vladimir Putin instead.

If you're getting the sense that maybe, just maybe, Congress is a tad fed up with Trumpsky, then you're heading in the right direction. Behind closed doors, many, if not most, Congresscritters think he's completely cracked.
Could this be the beginning of the end of Trumpsky? Yes, yes it is.
