Discussion: Trump Calls For Repeal And Delay Strategy After Senate Bill Stalls

Good thing an experienced poltician like Donald can show McConnell how to do it…

McTurtle is now going through the motions to run out the clock. He knows it won’t fly – it only flew in 2015, because they all knew it was a no-lose, no-cost, posturing-only situation because Obama wasn’t going to sign it.

If McTurtle doesn’t do this, then he’ll have Drumpfie breathing down his neck. Because, of course, the Dems are going to be all for this, just like Drumpfie says. Until they aren’t.

Lordy, what I wouldn’t give to have a grown-up in the WH again. Sigh.

Sequester worked goodly. This will too.

I think the aftershocks of a conservative Senator calling McConnell a liar (Thanks, Alice!) have yet to finish.

I’m sure that “repeal and delay” will prove to be even more popular with the public than the highly regarded “repeal and replace”.

Ya gotta love a guy with a great plan to make sure everybody - rich, poor, middle class, old, young, healthy, sick, disabled - is covered by better, cheaper, more comprehensive insurance with great benefits. Develop a detailed plan and stick with it - prove it’s benefits and viability with hearings and debate, get widespread bipartisan support. Trump - focused, steadfast, a leader for the ages. So much Winning!

I think this is it. I think we’ve reached the point where George III – sorry, Hair Furor has been sat off in the corner to quietly babble to himself, while the rest of government works on governing. No one cares what you have to say, crazy old man!

Not that I’m saying we have effective government happening right now – just that I don’t think even the Rs care what he has to say, anymore.

The insurance market won’t respond well to this. Once again, impatience and racism are overwhelming leadership and sound judgment.

Yeah, that’s the ticket, you moron. Just blow the whole thing up if you can’t get your way…Once again, this idiot doubles down on more idiotic stuff. No one’s listening to you bub.

Also tRumpf Logic: No coffee or tea because caffeine is bad, but will drink diet Coke religiously and an occasional non-diet Coke. Makes total sense. SMH

Another Trump tweet just reported
“As I have always said let Obamacare fail, and then come together and do a great healthcare plan.”
Always said, when he wasn’t saying something else.

So much winning.

Oh, I don’t think the sequester is the kind of solution that appeals to either Mitch or Trump or Putin. After all, the sequester was at least partly functional.

As I have always said, let ObamaCare fail and then come together and do a great healthcare plan. Stay tuned!

Pretty much the usual here: He’s always been right, and wonderful things will happen easily in the near future. There’s actually a linguistic term for this crap, which is “deictic,” denoting words whose meaning is dependent on context and their relationship to something else, like “yesterday.” The great, wonderful, beeyootiful things are always in the near future, and never in the present.

It was meant to spur them to make difficult choices. They no longer acknowledge there’s such a thing in life as difficult choices you have to be an adult and make.
