(44,738 posts)On record, who me? I knew nothing about this subterfuge by the fake Christian from Louisiana after the bill is passed. Who wants to be Speaker?

(5,252 posts)so it is actually plausible that he may not be well-informed about what is in "his" bill---
and if it gets to his desk, he certainly isn't going to read it beyond page 3... if that far
However, I have to judge that he is lying--- he DOES lie about almost EVERYTHING...

(10,091 posts)All he really wants is to play golf at the taxpayers expense and charge the USSS top prices for their staying at his hotels. Oh, and the never-ending praise and adoration from his close circle of sycophantic idiots he chose in his cabinet... That's about all he really cares (plus the security of never ending in a jail cell for the rest of his psychopathic life that was never his responsibility and never will be). Why would he have to bother with anything he can't comprehend by reading, something he hates to do. He doesn't care about voters, he only wants their votes.
Bonus: A gold-plated (inside) 747 "Flying Palace" and bribes from corporate "media" outlets he sues as settlement based on quid-pro-quo's because he can illegally threaten them to remove their licenses if they don't pay tens of millions (to pay for the fuel his future taxpayers-funded $1 Trillion refurbished plane based on AF1 designs and features will need to travel to Saudi-Arabia and Moscow after his term, which could never come since he may be plotting with his corrupt DOJ to cancel all future elections).

(13,493 posts)will he veto the bill? Will he insist that those cuts be removed before the House votes on it? I think not.

Figarosmom
(13,427 posts)He doesn't care. He doesn't know really what's in any bill he signs into law. That's why when the folder is handed to him and they have to explain to him what it is, he nods and says something stupid like " that's good" or " that's needed" or he misrepresents what it is.
HE DOESN'T CARE.

(5,252 posts)if we got extremely lucky he would TACO
but more likely he will claim that it doesn't matter,
because his BBB will do so 'much good for our country'
(although all prominent economists have explained
the many ways that it will be DESTRUCTIVE to our country AND economy...)
He will forget what he said after he naps,
and then awakes to post on "Lies Central"

(106,605 posts)Especially one that proves him wrong - that wouldn't "feel" right to him:
Trump hosted a meeting with some moderates and some members of the Main Street Caucus on Wednesday, where he listened to concerns and touted the wins in the legislation, two sources told NOTUS.
But Trump still doesnt seem to have a firm grasp about what his signature legislative achievement does. According to three sources with direct knowledge of the comments, the president told Republicans at this meeting that there are three things Congress shouldnt touch if they want to win elections: Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security.
But were touching Medicaid in this bill, one member responded to Trump, according to the three sources.
Three things legislation must do is not touch Social Security, not touch Medicare, not touch Medicaid, and not have massive upper class tax Ill come in again.
