On a funnier note - Alex Jones apologises for Pizzagate coverage. Looks like someone got sued

So no healthcare reform, no EO keeping Muslims out. Now, what's happening with that wall?

It oozes out of every post you make on this thread chaps. There is zero objectivity or balance. None whatsoever. And your tone towards those with a counter opinion is hardly constructive.
Your call of course. You are free to express whatever opinions you want in whatever way you want. But don't be surprised when mass decisions like have happened over the last year happen. And try not to be dismissive of them. Understanding the root of them is important. Congratulating those with identical viewpoints only has so much use
I completely understand the root cause of these "abnormal" type election and referendum results. It boils down to a fundamental disenchantment with "normal" politics and "normal" politicians.Your call of course. You are free to express whatever opinions you want in whatever way you want.

The problem is that the alternatives are SO much more worse.
As Winston Churchill once said, "Democracy is the worst sort of politics - except for all the alternatives".
People need to be more historically aware.
I presented sensible, sane arguments without hysteria or fiction.
Had a decent enough debate and raised some decent points, but had absolutely no useful backup from the Trumpites on here, so I got bored and returned to reality.

Dear me.
Key pledge, fked up massively. And his response?
Blame someone else. Ryan. The Dems. His daughter and son in law. Rep rebels.
What a complete failure of leadership.
Schzerkeks will still back him though.
Where's Murph to provide some balance to all this unbalanced view. Key pledge, fked up massively. And his response?

What a complete failure of leadership.
Schzerkeks will still back him though.

Played well? In what possible sense. For nigh on two Presidential terms Obamacare was fought tooth and nail by the GOP. Trump himself made enormous capital over rescinding it and replacing it with something more beautiful. This isn't the end of it. It's just part way through a colossal feck up.

Healthcare bill was played well, IMO. No one wants Ryancare. Trump's ultimatum was a wise move, as he can wash his hands of the issue now. We should have gotten single payer; but it is of no concern to me. Healthcare in Germany is excellent.
Played well for Trump, not particularly great for the GOP or for the country though. He's only looking out for Trump. IMO It was an awful bill - fudged beyond belief with no clear direction or vision, but it's unsurprising that it's that bad since they tried to ram it through congress so quickly.

Down the road there may be a new opportunity, and in the meantime, all of the problems of Obamacare will persist, further tarnishing the Drone Ranger's legacy.
Wise choice. The sad part for us is that Trump is actually the last chance for decent health care. No establishment corporate crony from the Dems or Reps is going to step up (not that Trump necessarily will either). Single payer is a pipe dream.
Highly entertaining. Resident nutjobs; 'Y'know, this is actually good for Trump he played a blinder'. The bill that he was pushing, the same bill he was chasing people's votes for, now that even Reps are saying; 'Listen, it's a ste bill, O'care is better than this'. But local faithful see the bigger picture.
Comedy central.
