Don's biggest con was convincing fools that he is teflon. he's not. he fails all the time. in fact, he almost never succeeds. but he has no shame, so the gullible think he's invincible.

he's failed in the travel ban and now he's failing on health care.

Don't forget he has billions in his budget to build the wall... another broken promise that Americans weren't going to pay for it.

and his claim that he had a solution for Isis that was better than what the generals could come up with.

That's not his fault though... that is the fault of the liberal judges who are making us look weak! He had his perfect plan in place to just ban some country's citizens from entering the USA

Probably the best post I've seen all day. Da Libbies are fighting Da Don too much and are getting in Da way of Thomas Da Train and Rosie Da Riviter making the coal rain down on Da Rust Belt.

Back to reality... I love the last paragraph

When President Trump sent greetings to the Iranian people on Wednesday for the Persian New Year, or Nowruz, it offered a glimpse into an administration that is still debating how to deal with a country that Mr. Trump has painted as an implacable foe.

The five-paragraph statement went through multiple drafts, according to two people involved in the process. Hard-liners in the White House first tried to kill the message, and when that failed, stripped it of references to engaging with the Iranian government or a future in which Iran and the United States might peacefully coexist.

Instead, the statement, issued a day after the holiday began, reached out to the Iranian people while ignoring the government in Tehran. It paid tribute to Iranian immigrants in the United States, even as Mr. Trump’s travel ban prevented relatives of those immigrants from entering the United States.

All future Spicer press briefings need to be accompanied with the Curb theme playing in the background.

This Pam Brown chick though

“Freedom, dignity, and wealth together constitute the greatest happiness of humanity,” Mr. Trump quoted Cyrus as saying. “If you bequeath all three to your people, their love for you will never die.”

right now I'd be happy with one out of three.

Sean Spicer today: Filibustering Gorsuch "breaks w/tradition" & "represents the partisanship that Americans are tired of."

Spicer last year:

@seanspicer:
RNC launching task force to stop Obama Supreme Court nominee
@TheHill

Heh...

Fukumoto, 33, the youngest Hawaii legislator to serve as House minority leader, said divisive campaign rhetoric during the 2016 elections convinced her the Republican Party no longer reflected her political values or the interests of her state's diverse population.

"This election, I saw members of my party marginalizing and condemning minorities, ethnic or otherwise, and making demeaning comments towards women," she said in an open letter of resignation to the Republican Party.

Fukumoto, who is of mixed Japanese and Irish ancestry, said she found Trump's comments about banning Muslim immigrants and the possibility of establishing a registry of Muslim-Americans to be especially troubling.

"I wanted very badly to see the Republican Party denounce his comments, and that didn't happen," she told Reuters, saying a Muslim registry struck her as "one step away" from internment camps.

"That for me was the issue that really changed how I felt."

A self-described political moderate, Fukumoto was the first Republican in 26 years to represent the largely middle-class central Oahu district outside Honolulu, capital of the predominantly Democratic state.

She said she originally joined the Republicans out of a sense that Democrats were the status quo party, but she grew gradually disillusioned with the Republicans.

She recounted a fellow Republican caucus member admonishing her last year that they should be considered the "party of middle America" despite Hawaii's diverse demographics.

Are they ever confronted about their contradicting tweets? I'd love to see that.

But I think they get something done, an even worse bill than they have now. The GOP doesn't give a **** about helping anyone but the rich, so there is a chance they might unify around that principle.

But it is amazing to see these lil ***** squirm
