Trump is begging for help.

How could he have done that, when Obamacare was already a complete disaster?

Sorry, my friend, but he’s not in over his head. Never has been. Yeah, there’s a part of me that wished he’d cut back on the tweets, but there’s another part that likes hearing him directly without passing through the political filter of the media.

Yes, that’s his way of thinking exactly, except that he considers the media reporting his tweets to be fake news.

I’m still waiting for him to just give us that wonderful health plan he promised back in January. Everyone covered, lower premiums, already drafted and just waiting for Ryan to bring it to the floor of Congress. You don’t think he was, you know, lying about that do you?

No. What I really wish is that he would spearhead the movement to axe Obamacare completely, and not get distracted by the “fix it” mentality. It can’t be fixed.

Certainly not with that type of attitude, it can’t be.

Are you against everything that the ACA did, or are there any parts of it that you would want to keep?

Bolding mine.

There is this consistent trope of the right about some sort of filter on the President’s words. Where did this garbage come from*?

Every President since Bush II has had a website where 100% of everything they want to write or vid-record is immediately available with no filter.

When the President gives a significant speech, the recording is available verbatim on news media and the printed press publishes a transcript.

The President can of course publish whatever he/she wants whenever on YouTube and umpteen other outlets.

All of this has zero “media filtration”.

So quit already with the fake strawman.

• That was a rhetorical question. We know exactly where this deliberately false notion came from.

I look forward to the day that Angela Merkel finally loses her cool and puts him in an armbar at a summit meeting.

I imagine a swift solid kick to the orange groin. The image of that fat buffoon rolling around on the floor crying in agony is priceless.

You can’t kick Trump in the balls.
