Price probably is rich enough to own a private jet.

I’m guessing I’ll never disagree with Rep. Schiff again, tho.
Tweetstorm INCOMING!
President Donald Trump on Monday night appeared to joke about firing Health and Human Service Secretary Tom Price if he does not corral enough votes to get an Obamacare repeal bill through the Senate tomorrow.
“By the way, you’re going to get the votes?” Trump said to Price, who stood beside him onstage at a national Boy Scout event in West Virginia.
“He better get ’em. He better get ’em. Oh, he better,” Trump said, turning back to the crowd. “Otherwise I’ll say, Tom, you’re fired. I’ll get somebody.”
From a July 24 article on TPM. His real offense was embarrassing Trump on ACA repeal.
Price has no value to anyone. He failed Trump on ACA repeal and he’s failing the American people by purposely sabotaging it.
He Committed ‘Unpardonable Sin’ Of Not Owning Jet
Zinke: I am working on it. I just need another year.
Why in the world would he buy his own jet when he can use taxpayer money? HHS spokeswoman Chairmane Yoest explained it this way
Secretary Price leads a $1.2 trillion agency — the largest agency in government.
Waste not of your personal funds, want not.

Too faced swamp monster on one cheek has his rich friends on the other cheek he has Puerto Rico. 3000 containers sitting there waiting for distribution people are starving need water and medical supplies in it he finds the time to brag about his rich friends in there . Their sense of entitlement is sickening. We don’t give a crap about your rich friends and their private jets get some help to Puerto Rico now you low life.
Oh Price is rich enough esp. from his insider trading stock purchases, he just wanted to
put to the taxpaying public.
Ok teabaggers when are you coming to chime in?
That answers the question, “what breed of rat wants to board this sinking ship?” A rat who’s rich enough to afford a private jet.
This was atypical for Schiff. Wonder what he’s looking to accomplish here? Sounds like he’s stirring a pot, but what pot is it?
Might just have making a remark off the cuff. Situation speaks for itself to an extent that he probably didn’t see a downside.
Schiff’s not an off-the-cuff sort of guy. Not even in live interviews. He’s extremely calculating. He’s not going to tweet something that provocative unless he has a definite reason for it.
“It’s just appalling, my good man. Flaunting nonexistent wealth is so nouveau riche. Sad.”
Overheard at Trump’s golf club today
There are live interviews in the rotunda, and live interviews over the phone when he’s not at work. Just because I can’t see a purpose here doesn’t mean there isn’t one, though.
The response:
“Who you talking about? I hardly know the guy.”
Every private jet is financed by some organization or other. It’s an interesting question why people are less contemptuous of Betsy DeVos buying a jet with her husband’s Amway inheritance, than of any other person whose possessions are equally divorced from effort or accomplishment.
Tom Price will not go unrewarded. He’s a frontrunner for the next US Senate seat vacancy in Georgia.
Betsy probably has as much if not more wealth from her father, who founded an automotive supplier. That’s where her mercenary brother got the money to go play spook.
Here’s a thought. I recall seeing a TPM headline I think yesterday that deep-pocketed donors were really unhappy that they spent so much $$$ defending Price’s House seat against Ossoff…only to have Price resign his HHS directorship eight months in.
But Price didn’t just resign. Trump pressured him into resigning to ward off yet another scandal in his administration. Schiff’s tweet brings out the pettiness in this whole thing…and Trump’s erratic, childish, and self-wounding reactiveness. Trump’s not on their team. He’s only interested in preserving and protecting his image and will betray them in a heartbeat to that end. Could be that’s the pot Schiff is stirring here.
Time to bring Tommy Price, the sleazy corrupt ex-congressman and greedy, thieving ex-HHS secretary who failed at his main job three times, to justice. Make him return the money he stole from tax payers.
