He angered McConnell (boo hoo) and said the new Senate ACA repeal bill is "mean"

and he used other words that they can't repeat on TV. The dems may actually have had something good to come out of the day's news. Who thinks that McConnell will change anything despite the fake prez's harsh words? Not me. McConnell is an evil monster like Ryan!

If this is true and he's not just saying it to then turn around and use it as a talking point or to place blame, I bet the portion he finds mean has to do with children.

Regardless, he just gave us all a perfect and very valid point to call our Rep Senators acting as hysterical as possible because 'according to President Trump, this Healthcare bill is mean, horrible, it's going to kill people, etc.' Perfect opportunity to use as a talking point to his voters on social media as well. We all need to call relentlessly- he opened the door for us.

I must break my longstanding rule to not use twitter and jump back in. Too much to share and keep on top of right now.

... word has come down to Trump that he'd better start "acting" like a president in order to distract from all the negativity surrounding his "presidency" - especially with the Russian collusion investigation noose now tightening around his neck.

First order of business was "get the wife and kid down here and start acting like a normal family in front of the cameras." The next order was obviously to feign concern about people losing their health coverage.

I expect that these orders are coming from his personal lawyer, who knows how such optics can serve to "rehabilitate" a defendant's public image.

Me.

I, of course, meant link. Got leak on the mind. I googled and could find nothing relating which is why I asked.

And it was not his greatness that gave the people their sugar for the day....and took away his glory and awe!

And let me include Nevada also. These states will show, single payer can work!
