Yeah right. Trump's got nothing, just as he's always had. It's all talk and no action. CNN published a great article that demonstrates exactly this in one of his typical speeches. It consists of vague promises about great things to come to Americans in the future with no concrete information about how he will get it done. That's not surprising. He's completely unqualified to be president. Trump's incompetence surprises me not at all. What really surprises me is the fact that so many Americans would vote for a completely inexperienced candidate for president and EXPECT him to do a good job.

^ CNN? What a joke.
Even after next week when Trump reforms tax and healthcare, CNN will never have a good word to say.
They lost all credibility last year, as did the New York Times.

Historically big tax cuts when you have a big deficit and lots of things to fund isn't something to get excited about - its a bad idea.

Sean Hannity says that the Health Care proposal isn't even written yet, but Mark Meadows, Chairman of the Freedom Caucus, is "on board with healthcare". So Meadows is approving a proposal not yet written. This is a prime example of why Hannity has no credibility - his own words contradict the point that he's trying to make.

What about the other 29 members of the Freedom Caucus - who says they're on board with a proposal not yet written.

What about the rest of the House Republican members - who says they're on board with a proposal not yet written.

Do you expect nearly all of the House Republicans to vote on a bill next week, without any foreknowledge or input into the contents of said bill?

We really need to bookmark this thread so we can come back in a week and see what swayalot has to say when Congress fails to pass either bill. That's if swayalot is anywhere to be found a week from now.,,

By definition if it's on Foul News it is Fake News! Nothing but talk, get back to me when they actually pass a bill out of the House, gets approved by Senate, goes to conference committee and then is, approved by House and Senate again, and Trump signs it.

Until that happens you got a nothingburger!

The things Mr Trump does demonstrate that he never intended to be the president for all Americans, he is working on behalf of a small self-centered well heeled clique and he he continually lies to his base of supporters, who sop it up like a dog to vomit.

The man is not a unifier and he lacks grace in public. Most people by now can see through him, some can tolerate it and others can not.

Mike Pence outclasses him in every way (I don't particularly like the guy's politics, but he has class I'll give him that much).
I find it saddening that A President who likes to be with the people instead of hiding behind walls, innaccessable to everyone but donors is considered atrocious by liberals.

As I recall, Trump has never told people that they cannot attend his rallies. We know this because of all the arrogant, rude protesters who go there to disrupt the fun atmosphere.

So, you're dodging the question?

I find your lack of faith in the power of the Trump disturbing.
