What is this “beautiful” BS? Even if there was a bipartisan push to create a “beautiful” healthcare bill, it couldn’t happen in 20 days. A “beautiful” bill would take months of hard work.

What she actually said was that it was up to each country to decide who would represent it, so this was not out of line. She did not say whether or not she thought the US choice was good or not…
Also, why is the president relying on the leader of a foreign country to say it was OK? A REAL leader would just say that’s my decision and I stand by it.
I cannot imagine that Donnie does not understand that the Senate does not work that way. His ignorance of the actual functioning of government is staggering. How did we end up with this idiot in the White House again?
Leaders in foreign capitals have taken his measure and realized he’s an empty suit.
I suspect Republicans understand this also and as the Russia collusion story gains intensity, turning into a level 5 shitstorm, the less they have to worry that a weakened President will campaign against them if they defy him.
Ah. But you know, I think it was Masha Gessen who observed that even Fearless Leader isn’t really unusually intelligent in the raw-intelligence sense. Very cunning, brutal, much more focused than Trump, willing and able to do wild stuff like all the crazy psyops manipulation. But kinda dumb too. Like, he works with Donald Trump. Would you? I wouldn’t.
