Friday


It's interesting that Trump gets what he wants - at least most of the time while making no sense to others who try to cover for him. Do Trump's own surrogates actually believe what he says? Here's a clue.   Washington Post

Trump heads into the weekend hoping to win over conservatives and senators unhappy with the House Republican health plan. He is expected to hold rallies around the country in the coming weeks to build support for the bill. Yesterday, two important House committees approved the legislation, which would undo the American Health Care Act and roll back the expansion of Medicaid - Not good. When are people going to realize that there will never be a plan that will satisfy Americans unless everyone is covered by the government and healthcare is equal for all. Many are saying that this bill is - in part - a distraction from Trump's accusations that Obama wire tapped Trump Tower.
