March 25, 2017
Blathering about Obamacare, about which Chrump knew (and
continues to know) absolutely nothing, the candidate told his adoring minions, “It
will be repealed and replaced. It will be essentially simultaneously. It will
most likely be on the same day or the same week, but probably the same day. Could
be the same hour.” That day, or week, or day, or hour came and/or went
yesterday or the day before or minutes ago.
The winningest winner in the history of winning is now 0 for
everything. For those keeping score, it is now two Muslim bans and one
destruction-of-Obamacare shot to hell. Chrump is unfazed. Or braindead. It is
hard to tell. Maybe I have no idea what winning means, because this seems like
a bucket load of loser-esque losing to me. Or perhaps this is what the new kids
in DC call “alternative-winning”. I simply cannot take all this big league winning. I am having a very hard time adjusting to
this new alt-reality.
From a recent fortune cookie
Naturally Chrump and the Republican’ts are blaming, not the
Tea Party, not the crappy hate-filled Bill of Death (with the 17% approval rating) Paul Ryan put forth, not
the alternative-winning president who makes the best deals, but the Democrats.
Apparently, Hair Chrump believes that since the Republican’ts were willing to
shoot themselves in the balls, the Democrats should have been willing to shoot
themselves in the foot by helping to repeal the Affordable Care Act they fought
for decades to enact. In fact, the Dems were so desperate to get better health
care for more Americans that they were willing to go with something that was
little more than plans put forth by Reagan, Dole, Romney and others, than
something they really thought would work well. That would be the (not-at-all)
disastrous Obamacare that Republicants tried to repeal and ignore more than 60
times over the past seven years. The Obamacare that Republican’t governors have
been sabotaging for seven years. The Obamacare that Chrump called “a total
disaster”, which 12 million more people just signed up for last month. The
Obamacare that Ben Carson said was the “worst thing since slavery”. And the
Obamacare that Joe Biden, within earshot of the entire world, called “a big
fucking deal” the day it was signed into law.
Obama did not comment on Chrump’s
big alternative win
Chrump, who still insists that thousands of Muslims were
dancing in the streets on 9/11, that millions of people voted illegally in 2016
and that Obama or the British, or Martians tapppppped his wires during the
election, vows that Obamacare will self-destruct this year because it was meant
to do so once Obama left office. My hope is that the alt-president will hold
his breath until this happens. We have in the White House a belligerent child
who cannot admit a mistake. The Wall Street Journal said Chrump “clings to his
assertions like a drunk to an empty gin bottle”. In his defense, it is entirely
possible that Chrump would not recognize a mistake if it was sitting right on
top of his vacuous head.
After his latest crushing defeat Chrump told reporters, “I never
said anything about repeal and replace. Other people said that, I was just
repeating what I heard in the failing newspapers. I am here to sign things.
Today I got to sit in a big truck and blast the horn as much as I wanted. I don’t
care about Obamacare. I’m a tax cut guy. I win. That’s what Donald Chrump does.
I was right about Obamacare all along. I don’t think Obamacare was even born in
this country, and I have amazing proof that I will show you when the time is
right. I'm a very instinctual person, but
my instinct turns out to be right. Hey, look, in the meantime, I guess I can't
be doing so badly, because I'm president, and you're not.”(He actually said
the italicized part.)
Briefly…
Even after pulling a Cheney – feeding phony information to
the House Intelligence Committee chairman – and then acting surprised when said
chairman came running to him with this critical information, Chrump got nothing
for his trouble. Except more trouble. At least Cheney – after anonymously
feeding a story to the New York Times and then quoting the same article to back
up his lies, got what he wanted – an illegal war in Iraq. If only he could have
used his cleverness for good instead of evil.
Chrump is winning so bigly that his poll numbers are
breaking records. Never has a president had such unbelievable approval and disapproval
numbers so early in his first term. Never.
Approve: 37% Disapprove: 55% Nobody’s done it better
As Chrump’s approval rating's suicide watch goes to double red
alert, another new poll ranks the “happiness” rating of countries across the
globe. According to Talking Points Memo: The rankings are based on income and life expectancy
figures, along with how people rate social support, personal freedom,
corruption and generosity. Together it is used to generate a happiness score
from 1 to 10. The United States ranks 14th with a 6.99.
Chrump assures America,
“Everything is going just fine.”
It might be a coincidence that all of the top 10 happiest
countries all have universal health care. It might not be a coincidence since
every industrialized nation but one – old #14 – has universal health care. Also
none of the top 10 have Don Chrump as their leader.
