Trumpcare will hurt these people next year

Trumpies must be so proud. Their hate will hurt so many innocent people.

Pretty sure just about all the GOP presidential candidates in the last primary would be doing pretty much the same.

The one way exclusive Trumpline to the Trumpkins is now an unrestricted two way street, again.
Trump can't block users on Twitter, federal judge rules https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...-judge-n876831

The Constitution appears to be in fine shape.

Quite so. It's in a hermetically-sealed UV-filtering glass case with an inert helium atmosphere.

Jeff Flake on Trump to Harvard Law Graduates

Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Ariz.) took aim at President Trump on Wednesday, saying the president has "debased" the office with his "bottomless appetite for destruction and degradation."

“Our presidency has been debased by a figure who has a seemingly bottomless appetite for destruction and division, and only a passing familiarity with how the Constitution works"...

“Our Article I branch of government, the Congress (that's me), is utterly supine in the face of the moral vandalism that flows from the White House daily,” Flake continued.

The Republican senator went on to say that the country's strongest enemies could not hurt the U.S. more than "we are hurting ourselves," concluding that "we may have hit bottom."

Flake also criticized Trump for his continuing attacks on the media and what he views to be the president’s willingness to indulge and encourage “our very worst impulses.”

“When a figure in power reflexively calls any press that does not suit him ‘fake news,’ it is that person who should be the figure of suspicion, not the press,” Flake said.

You've apparently never seen the copy in the National Archives.

Philip Roth E-Mails on Trump

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2...mails-on-trump

Last week, Roth was asked, via e-mail, if it has happened here. He responded, “It is easier to comprehend the election of an imaginary President like Charles Lindbergh than an actual President like Donald Trump. Lindbergh, despite his Nazi sympathies and racist proclivities, was a great aviation hero who had displayed tremendous physical courage and aeronautical genius in crossing the Atlantic in 1927. He had character and he had substance and, along with Henry Ford, was, worldwide, the most famous American of his day. Trump is just a con artist. The relevant book about Trump’s American forebear is Herman Melville’s ‘The Confidence-Man,’ the darkly pessimistic, daringly inventive novel—Melville’s last—that could just as well have been called ‘The Art of the Scam.’ ”
