The story goes on to quote several politicians who say that the NHS is enormously popular and they are committed to protecting it. Of course, all Trump’s fans will hear is how Trump stuck it to those socialists with their terrible health care. ---

> [@Mollie\_Magill](#): > > I’m sure he doesn’t know yet. I don’t think they talk about the market on Fox & Friends, do they? Speaking of whom…in the day’s other developments on Twitter: Apparently, Fox News has decided that we really want to keep talking about health care. So they invited Nigel Farage on to Fox & Friends, to comment about protests in the UK related to National Health. And of course the Re-tweeter in Chief had to echo Farage’s remarks, bashing the NHS (and Democrats, for some reason). Pissing off Her Majesty’s government, and throwing another wrench into our special relationship. We’re living in a world where Fox News drives our diplomatic agenda, god help us all. ---

“Wow! -Senator Mark Warner got caught having extensive contact with a lobbyist for a Russian oligarch. Warner did not want a “paper trail” on a “private” meeting (in London) he requested with Steele of fraudulent Dossier fame. All tied into Crooked Hillary.” > Marco Rubio says this isn’t true. “Sen.Warner fully disclosed this to the committee four months ago.Has had zero impact on our work.” > Of course, Il Trumpo saw it on Fox News so it has to be true. ---
