I don’t think it should be just any other teacher of kindergartners, simply due to the heft of the toddler involved. You’d need someone the size of this one.
For a moment there, I thought you would’ve been comparing Trump to Baby Huey. Surely you see the resemblance.
Bannon is probably not long for this administration, either. He might survive by playing dead - one report I read (forgot which one) suggested that Bannon is basically trying to regain Trump’s favor by hiding and being so far out of sight that the press basically forgets who he is. Bannon’s sin? Getting too much credit in the press for being Trump’s brain.
Credit?
I’m not sure I understand how Trump plans to do this. Congress controls the money, right? Is this just another temper tantrum or something he could actually do?
All of this because the ACA was passed under president Obama. Fucking up everything Obama is his reason for being president. If the ACA was a legacy of the Bush administration, he wouldn’t even be talking about it, much less overflowing his diapers and throwing tantrums.
What a punk piece of shit.
He might have. They need the money saved from the program in order to pay for the tax reform package they want to enact.
Usually when Congress passes major legislation with financial aspects, it gives the President executive discretion in a lot of the funding issues, rather than trying to set in law every single financial decision. I assume that’s what Trump is talking about, using that discretion in ways that will sabotage the programme.
It “reform” the word to use? Seems like “cut” would be more appropriate. Or “tax buggery package”. We do not have to use their bullshit words to describe their bullshit.
So now he’s threatening to punish the voters if Congress doesn’t blow his tiny dick? And the bloody Trump supporters still support him. Idiots.
I watched the Rick & Morty episode with Tiny Rick, who of course, keeps saying “Tiny Rick!” all the time. Now I’m picturing Trump running around repeatedly saying “I’m Tiny Dick!”
If Trumps follows through with his threat for a certain amount of time, his supporters will feel it.
That would make a difference.
Exactly what I came to post. I hope he fucking does it. It will hurt me, but I’ll weather it. It will disproportionately hurt his dumbass, drooling supporters in a way that nothing else has to date to drive home the point that Fuckwit Tiny Dick doesn’t give a shit about them.
Not to him. Because they won’t blame him. He’ll say it’s Obama’s fault, Hillary’s (her emails did it!), the Democrats, Putin, Angela Merkel, Priebus, Spicer, CNN, etc.-- his supporters will definitely feel it, and in fact, some of them will probably die, but they will not blame Trump. Trump is never at fault in his eyes or theirs. It’s always someone else’s fault.
50% of Republicans don’t believe that Donald Trump Jr. met with Russians to discuss the campaign after he admitted it on Twitter.
I get that there are supporters who will never abandon him no matter how much they may/will suffer from his actions (I can’t bring myself to characterize them as ‘policies’). But they are less than 30% of his supporters, maybe 27% is a figure I’ve seen. The roughly 10% between that number and that of his present supporters is more soft, I think. They’ve gone from ‘strongly support’ to ‘somewhat support.’ And this action on his part would hit people more directly and harder than anything else he’s done to date.
Of course he will try to hang it on Obama. It’s what he always does. That gets harder and harder to do the more time elapses between the end of Obama’s term and the changes in how Obamacare works since his departure. It will be hard for Donnie Two Scoops to distance himself from having pulled the trigger, since he telegraphed his intent to do it on Twitter. Fewer and fewer people are buying his bullshit. It’s painfully slow, but a move like this might hasten things a bit.
This is true. But 50% do believe it. Many of them appear to be in the House and Senate, as evidenced by their support for the sanctions bill. And that’s important, too.
A friend of the Mooch threatened to dig up dirt on Priebus, but then backed down, apparently after Mooch yelled at him (or so he says), but he’s running around making legal threats at reporters.
My sympathies and commiserations to both you and to Aspenglow.
More broadly: the Republican’s lizard-brain fear-of-“free-loaders” has drowned any common sense they might once have possessed: economies don’t thrive when people are terrified of health-care bankruptcy. Free markets don’t work when decisions are based on ‘how can I make sure my family has health care?’—instead of on shrewd observation of the marketplace, sound business principles, and innovative ideas.
The GOP is anti-business.
