"If you like your plan, you can keep it." I know you would prefer to go back and forth on this vs the actual issue, which is the overstep of government. But anything the government offers you will likely loosely, if at all, be tied to the truth.
I would argue Trump removing the mandate on day one was far less dishonest than Obama's claim to keeping your plan.

Aside from Carter, Clinton an Obama. Those were brutal.

Rough start for the "Dealmaker"

The travel ban , was going to be opposed that's why the language was rewritten. The new democratic opposition has zero chance of winning. The 9th circuit dosent enforce the constitution it makes shite up. I don't count that as a loss.
The health care bill is only a glitch. He didn't come up with it Ryan and the house rinos did, now he semi backed it but as much as he speaks he never hammered this bill like he does others leaving him wiggle room and the pie on Ryans face. Why do you think he wanted to force the vote. This in my opinion was a way to make Ryan put up or shut up and he couldn't get the job done.

Democrats agree that the bill is imperfect, but that repealing it is harmful and ignorant.
Wanting slight changes to make something better is not the same as wanting to rip it out "root and branch", which you claimed was equivalent.
Be better at English.

>Obamacare wil crash under its own weight
>Support up for Trump +7 in Gallup (41 from 34)
>Repubs more united than ever- all hate Ryan
>Dems continue to slip in polls (2018 rising)
>1 million illegals deported in 60 days
>Gorsuch will be on SCOTUS via nuclear option (thanks Dingy Harry)
h-h-holy shite
I am finally starting to get tired, Mr. President

I'm completely satisfied with Trump so far. In 4 years, nobody's going to care about anything except a roaring economy.

Let me get this straight...are you saying you wanted a no-bid contract on the Wall? Really...you know the best way to get the best price on the Wall is to bid it right?

Clinton, almost getting impeached for lying about having sex with Monica.
Obama's Obamacare.
Carter's handling of the Iran incident and his brother making Billy Beer.

And you might be right. I'm not sure we, as a nation, needs to go back and forth on health care issues every 4 years. The ACA is here, and for me fixing it might be the best solution. But with a majority in the both Houses and the WH....not to mention haivng the WH in the first 4 years, you would have thought the Dems would have seen the obvious pitfalls the ACA had. Instead they forced it through and now are living with the consequences of their actions.
If the GOP doesn't get their act together, they will have to live with the aftermath of what is going on right now. We desperately need politicians that put the nation first, instead of just trying to get reelected, or furthering their partys ideology.

Ummmm...mind showing me where i said it needs to be ripped out "root and branch"? Are you getting me confused with someone else? I said there are obvious problems...are you denying that?

Donald Trump had heard enough about policy and process. It was Thursday afternoon and members of the House Freedom Caucus were peppering the president with wonkish concerns about the American Health Care Act—the language that would leave Obamacare’s “essential health benefits” in place, the community rating provision that limited what insurers could charge certain patients, and whether the next two steps of Speaker Paul Ryan’s master plan were even feasible—when Trump decided to cut them off.
"Forget about the little shite," Trump said, according to multiple sources in the room. "Let's focus on the big picture here."
The group of roughly 30 House conservatives, gathered around a mammoth, oval-shaped conference table in the Cabinet Room of the White House, exchanged disapproving looks. Trump wanted to emphasize the political ramifications of the bill's defeat; specifically, he said, it would derail his first-term agenda and imperil his prospects for reelection in 2020. The lawmakers nodded and said they understood. And yet they were disturbed by his dismissiveness. For many of the members, the "little shite" meant the policy details that could make or break their support for the bill—and have far-reaching implications for their constituents and the country.
"We’re talking about one-fifth of our economy," a member told me afterward.
Trump prioritized his image over the "little shite" that matters

As much as I can't stand Trump, I am not going to judge him just yet. Especially holding him to a standard of fixing all of Obama's eff ups in 100 days when it is clear the Republicans are going to fight Trump harder than they ever fought Obama.
What is happening in Washington today should be alarming to everyone. The Uniparty is showing themselves to anyone who will pay attention, but since the "left" gets to keep millions on a subsidy today that is set to crash in a few years (again), it is a "victory".
Anyone who pays taxes and works for a living is still losing thanks to these Progressive thieves and their Republican't friends.
