Machiavelli would have loved this WH.

He'd would write the Anti-Prince. Subtitle: The Evil Bumbling Idiot.

Whatever Trump does to Obamacare it's on his head. People won't want rights taken away and Democrats won't vote to make it worse.

It's also a good thing that Medicaid extensions are largely dependent on States, not the Federal government.
I am not overly familiar with the initial process, but I'd bet this was insisted upon by GOP. However, even GOP governors have expanded it, and the Federal Government have their hands tied. I bet they are kicking themselves.

A reminder...
We will immediately repeal and replace ObamaCare - and nobody can do that like me. We will save $'s and have much better healthcare!

What they think:

"Nobody does it better"

Reality:
"You're so vain"

And this one is for the Democrats

Hmmm
Carly Simon had more songs than I remembered.

On Scaramouche and the evil Princes, the key is that the WH should work as a team. If they're fighting eachother, then how can they get things done?

cozietoesie · 28/07/2017 08:52

He shouldn't have dissed McCain's Vietnam incarceration. He really shouldn't.

Roussette · 28/07/2017 08:54

God knows how they can get things done, it must be a horrible place to work.

This will be a whole new level of backstabbing, flip flopping, schmoozing, whispered conversations, secret meetings, turncoats, and everyone holding their breath whilst their Leader completes his first bowel movement and they wait to see who Trump is attacking that day or what new unknown Order he has just made up after catching something on Fox.

Ghastly

Roussette · 28/07/2017 08:57

I worked in a place once where it was forever damage limitation or fire fighting. It was soooo stressful.

cozietoesie · 28/07/2017 09:19

Mr O'Donnell talks about The Mooch's recent outburst.

Lweji · 28/07/2017 09:32

Great minds

I may not be wrong about him being fired soon.
The only problem being who'd replace him. Only such men would be up for this job.
Even Sarah looks like she's doing community service.

cozietoesie · 28/07/2017 09:34

Not to forget Murkowski et al but......

Lweji · 28/07/2017 09:43

I'm having recurrent chuckles over this:

Anthony Scaramucci

I made a mistake in trusting in a reporter. It won't happen again.

Maybe this is what we need, let them take each other out rather than trying to look for a way to do it. Kind of like the rats in a barrel story - trap them in there long enough and they will turn on each other.

Lweji · 28/07/2017 10:13

The problem is the damage they'll cause before they implode.

I envision Trump alone in the WH surrounded only by vultures, eventually.

Although the head vulture may already have a plan.

InigoTaran · 28/07/2017 10:27

I actually cried this morning when I read about what McCain did.

A week 's a long time in Trumpland!

Stuffofawesome · 28/07/2017 10:37

Wonder how long until Trump strongly encourages McCain to retire on health grounds (or just openly mocks him as weak for having cancer)

cozietoesie · 28/07/2017 10:49

I was just about to say that he couldn't possibly mock him for anything to do with his illness - and then I remembered...........Sad

I still think it would be going too far even for this GOP though. McCain is facing death now - again - and has no reason to do anything that he thinks is wrong. Ever again.
