Trump Presidency
#131

Well, the Republican replacement of Obamacare is going to throw millions of Americans off of health insurance, just as expected. Here are some statistics released by the Congressional Budget Office just some time ago:
  • In 2018, 14 million more Americans will be uninsured under Trumpcare than under Obamacare
  • In 2020, 21 million more Americans will be uninsured under Trumpcare than under Obamacare
  • In 2026, 24 million more Americans will be uninsured under Trumpcare than under Obamacare
  • In 2026, 52 million Americans will be uninsured under Trumpcare as opposed to 28 million under Obamacare.
The one good thing that this legislation would do is reduce the national debt. However, there are ways to do that without issuing death sentences to millions of Americans. It is clear that Speaker Paul Ryan doesn't care whether people live or die. He doesn't have to. As a congressman, he's guaranteed health insurance.

I believe death sentence is an exaggeration, but I agree with the sentiment Smile

Obamacare wasn't perfect, but this is useless. Trump has no idea what his administration is doing/no control over them. Either way, it's bad

A federal judge in Hawaii just shut down Trump's revised travel ban, which was set to go into effect tomorrow, the 16th. Think about this: Trump is now 0–2 for the Muslim ban.

Watch Trump call on conservative media, like he did with other world leaders. He wants to dodge questions on: false wiretap claims, travel ban, healthcare, etc.

EDITS:
  • One thing I can agree with Trump on is that NATO members should pay their fair share: 2% of GDP.

Merkel said, Germany would reach this goal until 2024, like stated in some kind of agreement of Wales.

EDIT: I had to laugh out loud. He really hates this dpa-reporter Happywide (now have to eat, need to watch the rest of the conference later).

German reporter: "Why are you scared of diversity in the news? Why do you mention allegations that can't be proved such as wiretapping?"
Trump calls her 'fake news' for calling him an isolationist.

Well everyone, you are looking at the Trump playbook. Instead of apologizing to the UK for claiming that GCHQ wiretapped him, Trump diverted and said, "Talk to Fox [News]." He never takes responsibility and never apologizes. When Navy SEAL Ryan Owens died in that Yemen raid, Trump said, "They, [the generals], lost Ryan." Despicable.

In a House Intelligence Committee hearing, FBI Director James Comey has refuted Trump's wiretapping claims. Director Comey has confirmed that the FBI is investigating potential collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government.

Donald Trump's approval rating is at an all-time low, 37%. Obama's lowest was 38% (11 December 2013) and look at what Trump tweeted then: "President Obama's approval rating, at 38%, is at an all-time low. Gee, I wonder why?" Gee, I wonder why Trump's approval rating sits at 37%, and these numbers came in before the Director of the FBI testified before Congress, under oath, and said that the President was a liar (wiretap). I'm loving the roast:
  • My former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger: "Oh, Donald — the ratings are in, and you got swamped. Wow, now you're in the thirties?"
  • Former Mexican President Vicente Fox: "Donald Trump, if this were TV, you'd be fired. America, tell it like it is: Donald, you're fired!"
