Trumpism

That fact-checking actually reveals that it is indeed the case that the injuries and traumas sustained during sexual or domestic violence would constitute a pre-existing condition, or rather, that they would be part of the individual scorecard when rates are calculated, unless you line-item precisely what you've got that was the direct result of sexual or domestic violence!

'kinell, its obviously the case that no bill actually says "And let it be known across the land that rape is a pre-existing condition and shall be due cause for the denial of health coverage by private providers from now until eternity." That was never the point at all.

well, when the article said that most states do not allow for denying of coverage due to sexual assault I understood it as including the consequent injuries and medical conditions. I stand corrected.

On further reading, oh man, this is just a fucked up bill. Slowly, come out of focus, start with the people who'd think of the ideas, then to try and make it into law and impose on a country and then the number of people who voted for this nonsense- messed up society. Is there no limit to free markets? This seems in reverse direction to what humanity should be aspiring to.

Comey fired. Haha. Waiting for some fun rambling tweets.

Hmmmmmmm, I'm sure that this is in no way related to Comey's sudden removal

Shades of Nixon as many commentators point out.

Credit to Trump, he's made my lunchtime reads much more interesting.

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump

James Comey better hope that there are no "tapes" of our conversations before he starts leaking to the press!

He's running amok now, the utterly craven GOP stooges are allowing him to reign supreme.

The rise of the far right is pretty terrifying.

Winning the battle but losing the war.

Apparently he's divulged some highly classified material to the Russians at his meeting last week - relating to an ISIS plot - seemingly it could compromise the source (a US ally) who had not given permission for the Intel to be shared.

It's damning that a massive fuck up like this, the day after he fires the FBI director who is investigating him and his campaign, has no one surprised. Not only did he divulge highly sensitive and classified material to the Russians, which he for some reason was within his right to do, but he also let the Russians bring recording devices into the Oval Office.
When did Americans start to value monumental stupidity as a good trait? Even if you only paid a tiny bit of attention during the election it was painfully obvious from very early on who exactly Trump is.

Burnwinter

But he apparently was "within his rights" to share the information with the Russians?

Trump obviously lacks the professionalism and basic judgement to be an effective President, but is also clearly being undermined by the agencies unhappy with his presidency.

The officials briefing the press about his meetings with Russia, with the intent of damaging his standing, are in real terms as much of a concern as Trump sharing information about ISIS that might put a particular source in danger.

goon

Comey memo apparently reveals Trump asked him to drop Flynn investigation. I genuinely don't know what he thought would happen after he fired Comey. The investigation would stop? Things wouldn't be leaked? He's not a politician.

Segway

I wonder what it will take to remove Trump from power. So far he seems to be immune to everything thrown at him including the selfinflicted stuff. He'll most likely ride this story off too.

He has had a running battle with intelligence agencies since day 1. He wants them to kowtow to him, and that is not how it works with the FBI.
I wonder if the leaks are a way for the inside leakers to get him to listen, to make him stop this stupid off the cuff behavior. Make him stand up and pay attention, put a zip on his mouth.
And now he is on his way to visit Europe and the Middle East. Just great. Even an experienced president would find this a huge task and would be spending major time prepping before the visit. This clown has no attention span, and yet here he is, off to Catholic, Islam, Jewish realms. Then to NATO. A perfect example of a WH with no understanding of how to govern, conduct foreign policy.

[size=small]I like how Bill Bernard's cold facts, without diatribe, explain Trump more clearly than most.[/size]
If Obama behaved like this, i would be shocked but i am yet to find anyone surprised by Trump's presidency so far.

It is one for the record books and, if it is a disaster, he is not the only one to blame (are you listening DNC?) as everyone knew him through and through when they voted for him.

😆

What an idiot.
It's as if people like Hannity expect that others ignore complely the sheer mind numbing uselessness and incompetence of the abject moronic lying lump that is Trump.
