So How Is Trump Going To Blackmail The Repug Senators At This Lunch Today?......

These Senators need to turn the table on him and have a 'come to Jesus meeting' with him. They need to perform an intervention on Trump.

Fall in line Trump and act like a president or we're going to take you out of office.

I Don't Know How To Express This - But This Voter Commission That Trump Is Addressing Now....

says the right things and hides behind the words of Past Presidents - all the while that we all know that their real intention is to suppress the vote with the motive to steal future elections.

How can we have voter integrity - when the people that are running this commission have no integrity.

We're watching our rights just slip away right in front of us and we have no recourse. We just have to sit back and watch it happen to us.

We know that this is bogus. The MSM knows that this is bogus. They know that this is bogus. Yet it is all being laid out in front of us - like Trump shooting someone in the middle of Times Square in broad daylight.

Doesn't this have the smell of this was planned all along. The Russian collusion/hacking/interference. The clean sweep of the Repugs in the House, the Senate, the presidency. The challenge by Trump saying 3million voted fraudulantly so that he could appoint this commission. So that they can take a little more of the rights of the American People away on a day-by-day basis.

How can we just sit back and let this happen. Did our founding fathers intend on letting one Party have total rule without the input by the other Party?

I just don't get it. But everyday - I feel worse and worse as I see our democracy slip away from us. This is demoralizing!!!!!

Trump Is The Repug Party's Greatest Liability....

He didn't go out around the country to campaign for their health care bill. The Repugs haven't passed any legislation of substance with him a president. The only thing they were able to do is get a SCOTUS seat. All he does is talk up and embellish everything he touches and sits and waits in the Oval with pen in hand to sign legislation. His tweets are so irratic that he contradicts himself from one to the next. All this puts the Repugs at odds with each other (like herding cats) and with the American People.

The only thing worse Trump could have done today after their health care bill cratered - was to invite the Dems over to the WH for a celebration beer and pizza party - like he did with the House members. I'm surprised he didn't.

Ali Velshi Has Been A Tremendous Addition To MSNBC's On Air TV Hosts......

I like his coverage of the health insurance issues. He's been the only one that has been taking apart the Repugs attempts to repeal and replace ACA. He's the only one I've heard speak to the issue of the sabotage by the Repugs of ACA.

Kudo's to Velshi and MSNBC.

Why Did Reince Priebus Get The Job With The Trump Administration?.....

Didn't he have a cushy job with the RNC? Why would he give that up?

The Repug primaries were very contentious. Soon after Trump wond the nomination - things got very cozy between the RNC and Trump.

The RNC then took Trump - the nominee of the Repug Party - into their confidence and the RNC and the Trump team began to work together. They shared a common goal and they shared the inside workings of both organizations in order to secure the presidency.

I'm sure that Trump learned all the Repug dirty tricks with respect to voter suppression, disi-nfranchising people from voting and how to win an election by using these dirty tricks. At the same time the Trump people shared their inside info with the RNC with respect to their Russian connections.

I have to believe that Priebus was hired into the Trump organization to meld the two groups together to beat Hillary and the Dems.

Priebus knows too much about this whole thing. He got the Repugs involved in this mess and they are in it up to their necks.

This is also why I think that the Repugs always circle the wagons and protect Trump. They know that he can take them down - if they try to take him down. This is what I believe he is holding over their heads.

They are lying for Trump to save their jobs and their Party. Cause if the real truths were revealed - the Repug Party would be dead.

Therefore - it makes perfect sense to me - as I've heard some people here on DU say - that Priebus was probably the eight person in Jr's meeting.

Was Obama Playing Three Dimensional Chess When He Signed ACA Into Law?.....

Did he anticipate Repugs being inept in legislating and set the tone for single payer?

It getting more and more apparent day by day that a Medicare for all is the only way to go.

The Dems Need To Push Back On The ACA Lies That The Repugs Spew....

the sabotage that they have inflicted on ACA since its inception is causing the problems with it. They refuse to support it and thereby they are sandbagging it. Their attempts to repeal & replace with their continuing failures to accomplish that has created more confusion and problems with the insurers.

This needs to be explained by the Dems to the American People and they need to show how some tweaks to ACA can stabilize and continue ACA by making it work the way it was intended.

I Hear That McCain Wanted To Get His Surgery/Medical Problem In Under .....

ACA and before the Repug bill got passed. He didn't want to take any chances of it not being covered.

I'm Perplexed - What Does The WH Think It's Accomplishing By The Audio Only Daily Press Briefings?..

Why don't they want them televised. Are they afraid SNL will get too many 'bit' ideas?
