Twitter:Trump :: Hair:Samson
Trumpâs only real strength is using Twitter as a club. If you take that away, heâs got nothing. The more people stand up to him like this, the weaker he becomes, like cutting Samsonâs hair.
It is a bit like âthe blind leading the blindâ however,
Or the âblond leading the blandâ
The beauty of the responses are their tone. Trump wins on these things because his fanbase like his bullying, they love it when he twitter beats people up. If he responds nastily (and we know he will.) Then they keep responding like this - to all who read (because it will keep being followed in non twitter media) he will keep looking unhinged and in stark comparison to the responses that are cogent and have an air of decorum.
Then there is the thing that both Trump and the FC appeal to much of the same base. Come on Don, respond! Keep it up VC lets drag this out a little bit and fragment a little more of your shared base.
More popcorn please.
âWe can do better than a plan only 17% of Americans support.â
NoâŚno. You really canât.
Dear âfreedomâ caucus maniacs,
No, any plan you come up with would likely be far worse than the already horrible plan you just helped defeat. That said, please continue to believe you can do better, and keep up the intra-party warfare.
Thanks in advance for your cooperation (we know you wonât be able to do anything but).
Disrespectfully,
America
They are ALL a bunch of liars. With the latest flurry of âcrapâ they are only giving each other cover for their equally preposterous BS claims.
Itâs like listenening to my three young daughters arguing and sniping at each other after two hours into a long trip. âDaddy, sheâs touching me.â
âShe bit me.â
Sheâs looking at me funny."
âWe want a frozen yogurtâ
Brings to mind my life when my daughters were little. Just a glance and all hell broke loose. I remember my breaking point when I announced breakfast would be in perfect silence because I just couldnât stand the battles first thing in the morning then the âlooksâ took over and I was defeated. I ended up just getting up well before dawn just to have one damned cup of coffee in peace. I think the sniping ended when the first one went away to college.
The best part about this is Trump is trying to retroactively de-humiliate himself. Itâs not how a sane person deals with a setback but who said anything about sane people?
Youâre giving these clownsâ way too much credit with that comparison. Iâm referring to Trump and the FC, of course, not your daughters.
Meanwhile Atlantaâs highways are literally burning down.
Thanks for your commitment to infrastructure Orange Hitler! We appreciate how youâre always focused on the important shit!
Anybody else could.
he will keep looking unhinged and in stark comparison to the responses that are cogent and have an air of decorum.
A lot of his opponents have counted on that factor. Doesnât seem to work that well. For reasons which are unclear to me.
The Freedumb Caucus tweets that only 17% of Americans supported the ACHA. Surprisingly, they failed to mention the percentage that supports Obamacare.
Do we really think that if the Freedom Caucus bill for healthcare was supported by only 17% of Americans that they would pull the bill?
Off topic, but while all these sideshows are going on, something rather interesting happened in Congress yesterday. The Senate killed the rule that kept federal funds flowing to clinics that provide contraception and family planning care in states such as Texas that want that funding blocked. The Congressional vote was tied. Pence cast the deciding vote. This seems like a pretty big thing to me and Iâm disappointed that TPM never even mentioned it. We need to keep our eye on Congress. Theyâre going to keep slipping stuff past us if we donât.
No worries. I am sure 250,000 motorists will easily find new routes to drive to and from work. Atlanta has long been know as an easy commute. I seriously doubt they will even want to rebuild the overpass. And Republicans will conjure up the best health care ever, also, too. Oh look! A unicorn.
