Once again, our whack-job “president” demonstrates that he has no care whatsoever for the American People. “Screw them all” is essentially his mantra. And for some reason his adoring supplicants who voted for him continue to rhapsodize about all the good he is doing. Stupid!

If this is going to be their strategery, then I welcome it. After all their theatrics on repealing it failing, all the numbers showing growing support for it, all the backlash they’ve already faced, etc., I can’t imagine that the equivalent of “so what if we stood there and watched him drown?” will do anything but backfire even more spectacularly.

We have both houses of congress AND the presidency, but we need more reps and senators, because no one in the party could lead a dog on a leash to a rotting fish.

Great picture of the Asshole-elect in all his assholeishness. Sad.

That would be a brilliant idea - if Obamacare were failing. As it stands, only direct sabotage will cause it to fail.

If you let Obamacare fail without having anything to fix it or catch people, that blame does go on you and Republicans jackass.

He promised we would be tired of winning. I am tired of his whining.

It’s all about the stupid slogan, anyway. So maybe sign a random executive order and then repeal and replace it with great pomp and circumstance, at one of your golf courses, of course, and you’ll feel so much better, Donald. And I’m sure millions will attend the signing ceremony.

“Own” is the word of the day in his first press conference in six months and of course the ever popular “I can tell you.”.

The Democrats will come to the next session with Rs not begging to fix anything but demanding work begin on single payer. It’ll take 18 months or more to get there just as it took 18 months for ACA to be completed but this is the right time.

It will be a lot easier and I think we’re probably in that position where we’ll just let Obamacare fail. We’re not going to own it. I’m not going to own it. I can tell you Republicans are not going to own it,” Trump said. “We’ll let Obamacare fail and then Democrats will come to us and say ‘How do we fix it?’”

The 2018 elections are only 15 months away. There IS a way we can stop Trump’s minions from destroying our Republic:

Run for office- if Trump and Louie Gohmert can get elected what’s to stop a qualified candidate?

Become a Precinct Committee Officer, sometimes it’s a Ward officer. You’ll meet with neighborhood Dems and get out the vote. Find good citizens willing to run for office.

Register people to vote. If you need to help people overcome the GOP-led Voter run-around help them do that.

Run for School Board. Make sure Civics is being properly taught. Think a majority of America knows how government works? Just 26% of eligible voters in America voted for Trump and half of eligible voters stayed home last November. Today’s 12-year olds will be voting for President in 8 years.

Run for Mayor, City Council, County Commissioner, Borough Assembly.

Get appointed to your Planning Commission. Know everything going on in your community.

Run for State Legislature or Congress. The next census is in 2020, then we’ll redraw Congressional Districts. Get rid of GERRYMANDERING! Safe GOP seats gave us such intellectual giants as Louie Gohmert and Steve King. In most cases it’s the state Legislature that draws Congressional boundaries. Make it FAIR, OPEN and HONEST!

Overturn Citizens United. Money is NOT speech and Corporations are NOT people- at least not until Texas executes one.
Overturn any voter ID laws the are clearly an attempt to disenfranchise.

Donnie keeps conflating losing with winning! For someone who prides himself in being a winner and adept at winning, it’s really quite pathetic. Loser!!

The Dems can’t let this happen. They have to sue the living bleep out of the Trump administration to force them to follow the law and implement Obamacare as written.

If he refuses to do so, then he is a lawbreaker and killed Obamacare, and he owns it.

If we just let him get away with it, like we did with the Supreme Court blockage last year, we deserve what we get.
