    Instructed by whom, exactly? The article doesn’t say. It just says “a source in the Republican establishment”. That could be anyone.

    My money is on Stephen Miller. It sounds like a thing he would say…

      Instructed by themselves and each other. They don’t need to be told to circle the wagons.

        The article was quite clear that they were told by a particular someone in the “Republican Establishment”, which right now is a subsidiary of Trump.

        No, they don’t need to be told to hold the partisan line, but I wouldn’t put it past Trump (or even Stephen Miller) to treat them like employees. Which must be a bit humiliating for a Member of Congress…
