And naturally your experts will have a different narrative or agenda to ones that endorsed it.

Many of those that endorsed and voted yes on it admit to not reading it.

Seeing as you're throwing a Pelosi clip up, let's see what Pelosi says about the bill.

Just wondering why you think giving more money to the 1%ers is a good idea?

Considering the 1% signifies everything that is currently wrong with America.

Oh, so it's OK to quote her when it suits your needs?

Personally, I think it was more important to the Repubs to be seen passing the bill through the House and celebrating it so the rubes who see it think Obamacare has been repealed. Trump has kept his promise! VICTORY!

Unsurprisingly, the act in it's current form provides the opposite of what Trump has promised and continues to promise.

..and Trump on his executive orders? As I suggested earlier, the're not actions worth celebrating.. they're also contrary to Trump's criticism of Obama's use of them.

Trump has been sued 134 times in federal court since inauguration!

WASHINGTON — President Trump, who has struggled to press his agenda in Washington but has shown a knack for unsettling opponents and triggering protests, has also become an unprecedented lightning rod for federal lawsuits filed by plaintiffs across the country seeking court relief on an unusually broad array of issues.

Trump has been sued 134 times in federal court since he was sworn into office, according to a Globe tally based on federal court databases, nearly three times the number of his three predecessors in their early months combined.

No idea where that picture ^^ originates from. But what it shows me is some humanity.

Not at all like the greed and hate I see from the current administration.

Fancy that, Obama is fighting to keep healthcare for those who need it the most instead of kicking the poor off it so the ultra rich can receive a tax cut.

Had the Republicans attempted to build on the current system and repair what he couldn't due to opposition by the them in the senate, he'd be all for it. Instead, Donald is just blindly undoing anything Obama tried to accomplish out of personal hatred and making the US (and the rest of the world) worse off for it.

The AHCA that Donald is spruiking is nothing like the actual bill that was passed in the House. It's almost the complete opposite of what he promised and is still promising.

..and here's why Donald is tweeting like a petulant child today..!

Are people who hate Trump just snobs?

Are both liberal and conservative intellectuals simply appalled by the way he talks?

They are so blinded by his misuse of language and mangling of history that they judge him for what he says, and how he says it, and not for what he does.

When he shoots from the lip, he sounds natural and not like yet another poll-driven politician. When he tweets, with !! and CAPITALS, it is authentic and direct. When he offers to make the "best deals", and produce so many wins, "you'll get tired of winning," his supporters don't hear brashness, or irritating bragging. They hear confidence and ambition.

Critics have totally the opposite reaction. But maybe they are being elitist, or snobbish, if they judge Mr Trump by the odd way he talks, or by his overuse of superlatives and his slim grasp of history. What matters far more is what he does with the presidency.

Idiot or traitor? Definitely the first which makes me unsure of the second. His twitter shows a man in panic mode, though.

Warned by Obama not to hire Flynn, Trump thought he was 'joking'

Warned by the Attorney General (probably for this as well as not wanting to fight an unconstitutional immigrant ban) and fired while Flynn remained. Bigger

Sources who have been accurate with events unfolding so far have suggested that two grand juries are convening, one for interference by the Russians in the election, the other one a RICO case, possibly for money laundering through Trump Tower.

Trump dismisses FBI director Comey

http://www.skynews.com.au/news/top-s...r-comey_100517

[cheap]

Comey, you're FIRED!

About time too, Comey and his FBI had been playing politics for a long time. Hillary should have been charged but instead he played the Democrates. He tried to play Trump with the Russian links. Trump gave him opportunity to put up or shut up. Trump is the master rope merchant letting people tie themselves up in their own deceit. Now queue in the fake MSM...

[FairmontGS]

Comey on Hilary emails - nothing to see
Trump - you're fired!

Last summer, Comey concluded that "no charges are appropriate" in the FBI's investigation of Clinton.

In a memorandum titled "Restoring public confidence in the FBI," Rosenstein said he couldn't defend Comey's handling of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's emails.

"The Director was wrong to usurp the Attorney General's authority on July 5, 2016, and announce his conclusion that the case should be closed without prosecution. It is not the function of the Director to make such an announcement," the deputy attorney general said.

[Rodp]

What do you do when the hounds start closing in? You fire the man leading the chase!

In the letter Trump had written, he's still trying to insert bollocks.

"While I greatly appreciate you informing me, on three separate occasions, that I am not under investigation...'

You'd turn the channel if this was some political show as being too ridiculous to believe. I bet the writers of House of Cards are ****ed when Trump's administration makes their series seem tame by comparison. I don't think I'll even bother watching it now, we have a real life House of Tards.

How President Trump's Decision to Fire James Comey Could Backfire!

President Donald Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey rocked Washington on Tuesday, raising questions about the future of the investigation into his campaign's ties to Russia and potentially setting off a chain of events that could envelop his administration.

Calling the firing a cover-up, a slew of Democrats called for the appointment of a special prosecutor, who would have broad authority to investigate the Trump campaign and administration. At a minimum, such a probe would indefinitely extend questions about Trump's ties to Russia, and it could result in criminal charges.

"This is Nixonian," said Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania, one of several Democrats who likened the move to the so-called Saturday Night Massacre, in which President Richard Nixon fired the special prosecutor appointed to the Watergate investigation, prompting top Justice Department officials to resign in protest. Said Senator Richard Blumenthal on CNN: "We face a looming constitutional crisis."

Even senior Republicans expressed dismay at the firing, though they stopped short of calling for a special counsel. "I am troubled by the timing and reasoning of Director Comey's termination," said Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, whose committee is probing Russia's actions in 2016. "I have found Director Comey to be a public servant of the highest order, and his dismissal further confuses an already difficult investigation by the Committee."

Senator John McCain added that he was "disappointed by Trump's decision. "I have long called for a special congressional committee to investigate Russia's interference in the 2016 election," McCain said. "The president's decision to remove the FBI Director only confirms the need and the urgency of such a committee."
