To me, heĀ“ll always be known as Ā“Aqua BuddhaĀØ, even if he ends up voting the right way for the wrong reasons.

Pretty obvious at this point, there is a reality. This idiot in denying it is either delusional or complicit. I will go with the latter.

Rand Paul, or whoever votes against Hcare Bill, will forever (future political campaigns) be known as ā€œthe Republican who saved ObamaCareā€¦, and saved the lives of tens of thousands, and kept health care available for millions more.ā€

I have noticed the need to call it Obamacare is heavy right now. Again, a dog whistle to misdirect people. Sad part is I keep seeing our media news folks falling in line even when they are for it.

Iā€™ve been tough on the headline writers here in the past. But ā€œTrump hits Rand Paulā€ is the kind of pleasant, positive image that will help get me through the day, at least until itā€™s time for the Friday afternoon Newsbomb that I hope awaits.

The image also inspires me to picture ā€œRand Paul supporter stomps %^&&* out of Trumpā€,enhancing the positive effect.

Well, it has to be Trump vs. Obama or the Republicans vs. Obama. Gotta be personal for the media story line, and for the Republicans to sell their piece of crap. It absolutely cannot have to do with the substance of the matter, the availability of health care the Republicans want to take away fro tens of millions, or the lives that are at stake. That would be too real and not fit the meme that must be preserved. Besides, they used that reality story all spring and summer. And even though thatā€™s still the story, gotta move on to the new season - no time for reruns now.

ETA: Although, for Trump it probably is more personal against Obama, since Trump has little understanding what the ACA does or what the various versions of the Republican bills do. All he knows is ā€œRepeal and Replaceā€ gets applause and that the black President made fun of him at the WH Correspondents Dinner.

If Rand is known as the Republican who saved Obamacare, that will be the best compliment heā€™ll ever get.

Threatening a sitting Senator, the Donster Monster goes about his unaware daily routine of watching TeeVee and random behavior. Tomorrow: more of the same. And cheating at golf, a game that can not be won.

Ouch. Rand probably already feeling terrible, to know that heā€™d done some good in the process would really twist the knife

Iā€™m going to guess at this point that any Senator who opposes a bill to repeal ACA is already aware that Trump would prefer he or she vote otherwise. He keeps hurling these tweets like Jovian thunderbolts in a silent film, seemingly unaware that the Senators in question have already weighed all these considerations before announcing how theyā€™ll vote because thatā€™s what they do for a living. Heā€™ll be marched away in chains before he ever figures that town out.
