Didn't read anything I posted, didja?

Or are you OK with House Republicans voting on bills without any foreknowledge or input?

And he needs to divert attention away from all of the ridicule he is going to be the butt of because he was too much of a coward to go. What a child he is.

Absolutely this.

Actually, the healthcare bill was expected a few months ago. It was going to be so easy, according to Trump. Boy did the GOP look like a stupid mess. But somehow you're sure THIS time will be different. All set to eat another big heaping helping of crow this week, huh?

According to Trump the 100 day mark is a ridiculous marker set by the media.

Yeah it is...and you be celebrating it. Shaking my head.

Look -- he can hold a rally -- really he has enough money from donations to hold rallies every day for the next yea r-- well except the days he golfs.....so what.

But at some point when will people make him be slightly accountable for anything he says.

Hannity: I talked to Mark Meadows (Chair) of the Freedom Caucus. They now are on board with healthcare, so as soon as they get the language written up, they should be able to vote on it, it should pass the house. Apparently the Senate Parliamentarian also approved the language so there's not a reconciliation issue anymore.

If he thinks by doing this he will grow his base or expand support for his agenda, that train has left the station.

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).

HAHAH..Trump announces that he will hold a big rally in PA on the night of the correspondents dinner



Is the left wing media going to go into snippy mode?
Since he has no clue how to be President, might as well fire up the droolers and mouth breathers for another rally.

Actually Pence has been virtually invisible, compared to Trump.
And the biggest Tax Cut in history makes it impossible for anyone to beat Trump in 2020.
He'll win even easier than 2016.

OK - Here comes my boy John McEnroe again - YOU CAN NOT BE SERIOUS!

Health Care is the rubik cube that will never be solved by the Dumpublicans in charge, and without the taxes saved from that, Tax Reform is impossible.

Geez!
