Affordable Care Act - Republican Failure
« on: July 28, 2017, 09:35:10 AM »
I truly am frustrated with the jokers in Washington DC.

The Republican party since the ACA was passed have campaigned for money and seats on repealing this atrocity. Being a semi intelligent person I can only assume that the main issue isn't the Trump collusion with Russia but the members of Congresses collusion with business - Specifically the Insurance Companies.

Although I believe that Congress owns most of this failure, Mr. Trump owns the rest of it.

When i was a Vice President of West Marine, when I wanted to change a hot potato, I would not rely on "hope" or maybe other folks doing it. I called a meeting of all sides of the issue and would lock them in a room until they came up with a proposal that the super majority agreed with (Not unanimous mind you).

Now is the time for Trump to step-up and be a leader rather than just a blow-heart. Lock Eleven folks from both houses in a room and throw away the key until they come up with a 2/3's agreed statute. Periodically shove food under the door of the meeting room and take away their chamber pots but do not let them out until they have a proposal.

Defund both the Democrats and Republicans to stop their collusion with the Insurance companies!

   Well said Johny!  Unfortunately, both the Democrats and Republicans are only interested in getting re-elected, rather than properly representing the best interests of their constituents.  Meanwhile, Trump seems to be only interested in what's best for Trump.  As I've said many times before, we're screwed!

 President Trump made a couple of mistakes. One was not realizing how deep the deep state was another was trusting Priebus. But he was smart enough not to trust the man that single handily almost sunk the USS Forrestal. Now he sunk the obamacare repeal.
 Pundits say now the republicans have to work with and compromise with democrats. BULL! democrats idea of compromise is the same as it always was "DO IT MY WAY NOW SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP". 
 Take obamacare off of the table and let it crash.  The democrats own it.

How true. The saying goes You can't vote against Sana Claus and President Trump is not Santa Claus.

During my tenure at West Marine, we went through 4 or 5 CEO's. Each one about 6 months into their tenure had a purge of the senior management. Then there was another one around around the 12 month period and last was about the 18 month period.

This action causes first to get rid of folks who are not in lock step with the CEO and second to put people on notice. "Get on board or hit the streets."

A few more people will leave between now and January 2018 but mostly of their own accord.

Stay tuned for the next cleaning of the house starting in Dec/Jan.

i hear you JM.
with Spicy and Priebus gone - i think the last link to the republicans is Sessions.
and Trump is grumbling about him... alot...

Trump is turning himself into a pinata.  look at the ACA and the Russia thing.  Trump tried to claim he wanted tougher sanctions.  If he did, couldn't he just put it on a piece of paper and sign it?  He's made bunches of executive orders - but doesn't want to do it now?  The US Constitution gives him that responsibility.

it makes me wonder.  his actions seldom match his rhetoric - just like the republicans and the ACA.
the Tea Party was a Koch Brothers astro turf club.
so, where to go?

 The republicans said if trump gets rid of Sessions they will not confirm another AG so he is stuck with him. Trump knows that and I assume that is why he is on his back publicly to shame him into doing what is right. Such as stop the leaks by the FBI and by Clinton corruption the IRS scandal and many other laws broken by the democrats. 
 There's to many republicans connected to the democrat party for him to get any help.
 
 The Democrat Party is the worlds most successful hate group.
 It attracts poor people who hate rich people,
 Black people who hate white people,
 Gay people who hate straight people,
 Feminists who hate men,
 Environmentalists who hate the internal combustion engine and a lot of bratty college kids that hate their parents.
 However, the real secret of their success is that it attracts the support journalists who hate Republicans, and who therefor work tirelessly to convince the rest of us that we should vote for the Democrats
 
 The problem now is who are the real Democrats

 Yeah I know a couple of real Democrats. Shame the wacko's took over their party.

 A shooten war is what most of us are prepping for, hoping against. Scary stuff.
