ryoder 1,384 #1 Posted July 23, 2020 This is exciting news! Why is no one talking about? I just forced myself to watch the Chris Wallace interview and learned about it. From the transcript: WALLACE: Why does it make sense to overturn Obamacare which people now are relying on? Democrats are going to say, "The man who wanted to kill Obamacare is going to take away your -- the protection for pre-existing conditions." TRUMP: First of all, we got rid of the individual mandate. WALLACE: I understand. TRUMP: Pre-existing conditions will always be taken care of by me and Republicans, 100 percent. WALLACE: But you've been in office three and a half years, you don't have a plan. TRUMP: Well, we haven't had. Excuse me. You heard me yesterday. We're signing a health care plan within two weeks, a full and complete health care plan that the Supreme Court decision on DACA gave me the right to do. So we're going to solve -- we're going to sign an immigration plan, a health care plan, and various other plans. And nobody will have done what I'm doing in the next four weeks. The Supreme Court gave the president of the United States powers that nobody thought the president had, by approving, by doing what they did -- their decision on DACA. And DACA's going to be taken care of also. But we're getting rid of it because we're going to replace it with something much better. What we got rid of already, which was most of Obamacare, the individual mandate. And that I've already won on. And we won also on the Supreme Court. But the decision by the Supreme Court on DACA allows me to do things on immigration, on health care, on other things that we've never done before. And you're going to find it to be a very exciting two weeks.

Phil1111 910 #6 July 23, 2020 1 hour ago, kallend said: But hey, he can still identify a picture of an elephant. The test is much more difficult than that. trump bragged yesterday, on FOX naturally, “Person. Woman. Man. Camera. TV.” President Trump again sought to showcase his mental fitness on television by reciting, over and over again in an interview broadcast on Wednesday evening, what he said was a sample cognitive testing sequence. For the better part of a month, Mr. Trump, 74, has made repeated appearances on Fox News to brag about acing a cognitive test he said he recently took at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, first with Sean Hannity and again with Chris Wallace on “Fox News Sunday.” All the while, the White House has not disclosed details about when the president underwent the testing or why." FOX viewers and his supporters on SC were amazed at his mental acuity at that feat. FOX hosts could scarcely conceal their glee at a president strutting his stuff on their channel.They speculated that none other than Rupert Murdoch would send trump a golden trophy as recognition.

Over 30 million unemployed Americans, four million infections with over 140,000 killed and 1100 more dying every day.. Thousands losing their health insurance every day and twenty-two percent unable to make rent-mortgage payments. Millions could loose their homes because they can't meet mortgage obligations. The message trump wants to send to FOX his captive news channel is his dementia test. If there ever was a god he would hold the election tomorrow and a new presidential inauguration the day after. But alas there will be more ramblings with no purpose but to self stroke his ego. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leaving aside the whole 1/2 is definitely a real number thing, that really conjures up an image of doctors treating Trump as if he was a toddler who just learned how to do up his Velcro shoes for the first time. Wow Donald, that was so good, you’re such a clever boy! Can you try doing up the left one too? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When he came to the US to DJ he kept his name for a little while, then changed it to Richard Blade (because he didn't want to be 'dick' and because Blade sounded cool.) I wonder if Karens will go through a similar evolution? Will we see a lot more Kays? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
