My thread seems to have disappeared. Strange. One of the most important pieces of legislation almost a century, effecting every single citizen of this country is not to be discussed in the politics forum? It must be some kind of oversight.
The possibility that the President Of The United States simply made up the whole thing during the worst pandemic in over 100 years is a huge political topic as well.
Personally, I can’t see s president being that much of a sociopath, let alone still keeping millions of supporters. That would be mind boggling. Why, heck, I remember the furor over “You can keep your doctor”. It’s one thing to submit a bill to congress and have it rejected, but claiming an entire healthcare bill exists when it doesn’t would surely set those same people into a complete revolt against such a terrible president.
No, clearly the discussion of such an important topic deserves to be in a political forum.
Maybe the EO about prescription drugs is a precursor to the bill, and the Republicans are better at keeping secrets than I thought?
I genuinely think he believed that he could rule by fiat after the USSC ruling on DACA. Which shows just how poorly his understanding of that ruling really was. It was not about the Executive’s ability to rule via EO. It was about an ability to adhere to the Administrative Procedures Act. He is such a moron.
Yeah “it’ll be ready in two weeks” is just another version of the sir story. You know, when he says, “Someone came up to me and said, ‘Sir! Blah blah blah blah.’”
I actually laughed when I found out that he just made up that throwing the first pitch out at Yankee Stadium thing out of whole cloth because he was jealous of Fauci at the Nationals game.
I remember back in the old days when it was considered shocking when Bob Dole growled to HW to “stop lying about my record.” Suggesting that an “honorable” politician would lie just wasn’t done, because by and large the lies were the extreme exception rather than the rule.
Let’s put it this way, the office of the White House congressional liaison-the point man who talks to Congress about legislation that president wants passed-wasn’t even filled until almost three years into his term.
If you can believe this, Bannon wanted to primary Paul Ryan so he told Trump the president had nothing to do with passing legislation besides signing it.
More embarrassing for his defenders. Trump can’t help Trumpin’, but some people make a conscious, consistent choice to support him on a daily basis. It’s mind boggling.
