Has anyone talked about this yet?:

Apparently Trump absolutely hates Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell, and he dropped the GOP suggestions for a postponement of dealing with the debt ceiling in favor of one proposed by the Democrats. And when asked about it afterward, he referred only to “Chuck and Nancy”, while completely leaving Ryan and McConnell unmentioned whatsoever.
I read somewhere that Trump’s “drain the swamp” base hates the GOP establishment, and that Trump is actually following his base by not doing them any favors.
Shockingly, whomever was working on Trump’s newest campaign ad (yeah, nine months into the presidency but whatever) wasn’t notified.
On Wednesday, to the surprise of everyone, President Trump cut a deal with Democratic congressional leaders Sen. Charles E. Schumer (N.Y.) and Rep. Nancy Pelosi (Calif.) on the debt ceiling, affectionately calling them “Chuck and Nancy.”
But on Thursday morning, in an odd case of some pretty unfortunate timing, Trump’s campaign launched an ad deriding Chuck and Nancy as “career politicians” standing in Trump’s way.
