And 3/4 of this board agrees with him.

The GOP, my party, is an absolute dumpster fire. We're 65 days into the Administration with no significant wins outside of Neil Gorsuch's likely confirmation.

Someone remind me when the winning is supposed to commence. I've been patiently waiting.

That think a bunch of different ways.

The way you win is have a bunch of morons who all think one way like the democrats.

I do. And that's rare. But it's no doubt for different reasons.

I'm. It disappointed this bill failed. Glad actually.

What's disappointing the the appearance that the GOP is just giving up, and will not do anything.

The best part was Ryan saying that the GOP hasn't figured out how to transition from an opposition party to a governing party.

Obama did a good job of artificially delaying the full impact of the ACA bill. Perhaps the best thing to do is let it take effect completely and let people understand how bad it sucks.

Pretty much what I posted to Old Yeller. Some people are spiking the football before they cross the goal line.

That's a pretty fricking big one, don't you think? That's like saying, we're 4 years into World War II and the allies have no big victories except for D-Day.

Well Donald Trump pushed hard for a bill that was worse than Obamacare. I am convinced he never even read it.

It reminds me of how proud Barney Frank was when he twisted arms to force lending to people who should have not gotten them.

A true "win" for us all.

That alone is worthy of this administration.


Thomas and Kennedy will both retire before Trump's tenure is up(even if his is a single term president) and he will replace them both.

IF

Trump gets to replace Ginsberg, Breyer or both with an Originalist then Trump should have his face and all of his fricking children and grand children carved in to Mount Rushmoore.

Clarence Thomas isn't even 70 years old. You're much more likely to see Stephen Breyer and/or Ruth Bader Ginsburg retire who are 15 years older than Clarence Thomas.

I, too, hope he gets a couple more justice appointments.

Which part? That Donald whipped for this bill as hard as he could and still failed? Art of the deal my arse.

Or the part about it being worse than Obamacare? Well it costs more and will insure less people...sooo....Yea.
