many Republicans viewed this as the worst case scenario ā they have to deal with the wrath of constituents upset over their position on the unpopular health care plan, and still have nothing to show for it.
This isnāt the worst case scenario. The worst case scenario was actually passing their stupid-as-fuck healthcare plan and having to deal with the wrath of voters who have been directly impacted by it. I think itās crazy that people frame things the way they are framed by the sentence above. Like taking healthcare away from millions of people in order to fund a tax cut to rich people would be āsomething to showā for their efforts.
Trump Jr., at that time in the glare of media scrutiny around his meeting with a Russian lawyer at Trump Tower during the presidential campaign, gave the memo to his father, who gushed over it, according to sources.
In a comedy of errors, Trump later learned from Sean Hannity, the Fox News host and close friend of the president, that the memoās author had been fired. Trump was āfurious,ā the senior administration official said. āHe is still furious.ā
The Trump administrationās decision to cut federal funding for groups fighting right-wing violence has come under new scrutiny following the presidentās controversial response to violence at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va., over the weekend.
Holy shitā¦ so going into conspiracy theory mode extraordinaire hereā¦ but what if the Charlottesville march was set up in part to distract us from the Russia investigation? How fucked would that be? I mean, weāre not talking about it now, are we. Weāre talking about Nazis.
One reason I donāt buy into most of the āTrump scandal #2347 is a ploy to distract from Trump scandal #746!ā theories is that I have to believe even Trumpās strategists could come up with something better than āletās make the Russia thing go away by reminding everyone how Trump supports White Supremacy!ā
