Trump Says He Will Sign Imaginary Healthcare Plan In 2 Weeks

From the article:

WALLACE: But you’ve been in office three and a half years, you don’t have a plan.

TRUMP: Well, we haven’t had. Excuse me. You heard me yesterday. We’re signing a health care plan within two weeks, a full and complete health care plan that the Supreme Court decision on DACA gave me the right to do. So we’re going to solve — we’re going to sign an immigration plan, a health care plan, and various other plans. And nobody will have done what I’m doing in the next four weeks.

In the interest of clarity, when Trump speaks of doing things, is he talking about:

1) golfing

2) tweeting, or

3) lying?

2. Deferred Affordable Care Act.

Deferred until end times, of course, because the GOP has no real plans to fix anything.

was advising the WH that the courts ruling on the DACA case essentially meant the president could 'pass' whatever 'laws' he wanted in absentia of any prior congressional action (or something to that effect) via Executive Orders, as was done with DACA (not really, but they're GONNA GO THERE if they think they can get away with it, right?).

THIS is what President Lunatic is likley referring to.

I knew we should have put that lowlife fucker Yoo in prison when we had the chance. Am I the only one who hates being goddamn right all the time?!?

Baffling that nobody in the media seems to remember this. "Another two weeks? Okay, we'll look for it then." All hell breaks loose again. Five months later: "Another two weeks? Okay, we'll look for it then." Repeat.

Trump is good for revenues.

And soon, very soon, Trump will sign a plan to revitalize the economy.

He'll increase the promises he knows he'll never keep. I did hear he was going to promote trash can policies, Obama outlawed them because they were so bad.

And, Lincoln Project will do ads showing all the punitive aspects of the "plan".
And it will be somebody else's fault.

Republican senators up for reelection may try to do something with this inept effort.
