Tom Brokaw epitomizes it. Tom Brokaw is the face of it! And he\u2019s on with other members of the establishment, Matt Lauer and Savannah Guthrie, and they\u2019re all wringing their hands over, &#8220;Wha-wha-wha-what\u2019s going on with the Republican campaign?

Congressional Republicans were not interested in negotiation or compromise. They had their own problems with the Tea Party.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: It\u2019s NBC special correspondent Tom Brokaw report on why Americans&#8230; There\u2019s actually a special NBC report on why Americans are angry, and that\u2019s it. They couldn\u2019t be further wrong if they tried to be. What do you mean, Republicans were &#8220;intractable&#8221;? Did not everything Obama wanted happen? We\u2019ve got Obamacare, we\u2019ve got gay marriage, we\u2019ve got everything! Everything that he was serious about trying to accomplish, he\u2019s got. Well, maybe you throw Gitmo out of there, but what &#8220;intractable GOP opposition&#8221;?

They don\u2019t understand moving forward. They don\u2019t understand compromise.&#8221; That has nothing to do with why Trump\u2019s where he is right now.
