I guess something had to be THE FIRST THING IN THE WORLD that Trump didn't want his name on....

It also tells about a section of the bill I've heard of nowhere else. The page count of this bill is like super-slimmed down, compared to Obamacare. Spicer in fact highlighted this to the press, it was one of the best highlights he could find, apparently. But six of the few pages left are devoted to language outlining how states can discontinue benefits to someone who wins big money in the lottery.

Think about that--millions of people are sure to find insurance unaffordable even if they sell their I-Phones, but what are these guys worried about? Plugging the Lottery Loophole! Wow, that was close. Might have had dozens of former poor people pulling a fast one there.

I have just two questions--who the hell thinks like that, and are there drugs that would help?
Republicans apparently and no the only drug that might help is cyanide.
