I just realized that tRump has a lot in common with little Anthony in this twilight zone episode

He's surrounded by yes men, women who are afraid to confront him, throws fits when he doesn't get his way, lives in his own, distorted reality show

Lets not make the same mistake twice

The GOP is again going after our top candidates with absurd accusations and our party is again wasting valuable time and resources defending against these accusations. The Sen. Warren ancestry issue is just a repackaged Obama birth certificate attack aimed at distracting the party and voters from focusing on what really matters, like, the GOP's attack on the safety nets, voter suppression, the rich tax giveaway, ect… We need to ignore these baseless attacks and go after these thugs with facts, the fact that they are all about destroying Democracy and this country.

Back in 2000, Trump was all for single payer, loved the Canadian system of Healthcare

From Trumps quickie campaign book of 2000

"We must have universal healthcare," wrote Trump. "I'm a conservative on most issues but a liberal on this one. We should not hear so many stories of families ruined by healthcare expenses."

The goal of health care reform, wrote Trump, should be a system that looks a lot like Canada. "Doctors might be paid less than they are now, as is the case in Canada, but they would be able to treat more patients because of the reduction in their paperwork," he writes.
