It's Never Trump's Fault

[nhboy]

" Speaking in the Oval Office Friday afternoon, President Trump surveyed the wreckage of the Obamacare repeal effort and issued a crisp, definitive verdict: I didn’t do it.

The president said he didn’t blame Speaker Paul Ryan, though he had plenty of implied criticism for the speaker. “I like Speaker Ryan. He worked very hard,” Trump said, but he added: “I'm not going to speak badly about anybody within the Republican Party. Certainly, there's a big history.

I really think Paul worked hard.” He added ruefully that the GOP could have taken up tax-reform first, instead of Obamacare—the reverse of Ryan’s desired sequence. “Now we’re going to go for tax reform, which I’ve always liked,” he said."

Trump was more diplomatic than I'd have been. I'm not surprised you tards are trying to blame Trump for Ryan's asinine healthcare bill.

PS, the Atlantic certainly knows how bills become laws, and they also certainly know that Trump had very little to do with crafting this bill. But don't let that get in the way of a good Trump bashing.

Unreal...so this is from TUESDAY:

Republican voters want action on healthcare, strengthening President Trump in negotiations with GOP opponents of the party's bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.

To be sure, Republican voters are concerned about the potential shortcomings of the American Health Care Act, say party insiders who have reviewed recent private polling examining the opinions of GOP voters. But above all, these voters want the Affordable Care Act repealed, the surveys of Republicans in battleground states and House districts with upcoming special elections revealed.

That could give Trump the advantage as talks on proposed changes to the AHCA continue ahead of a scheduled Thursday House vote and conservative and moderate critics weigh the political risk of sinking the legislation.

Maybe you should get off your knees and look around. Trump is President (or did you forget that part)...the buck stops with him. This was his signature campaign issue...this has been the Republicans signature campaign issue since 2010? Large majority in the House...majority in the Senate AND the White House...and this President who said during the campaign that ONLY HE COULD fix this...proved, once again, how utterly unqualified he is or this job.

He's already "moving on" to tax reform. We only have to wait and see how he manages to f*** that up, too.

Unreal...so this is from TUESDAY:

Pay attention or at least learn to read.

And while you're at it, take a civics lesson. Trump doesn't craft legislation - that would be the, you know, legislative branch that does that. They put it together, vote on it, then send it to him to sign into law or veto.

Here, try this:



I understand why you're confused - because Barry couldn't make the transition from the legislative branch to executive.

How did we go right from blaming Bush to blaming Trump?

We're not allowed to blame the flaming ####tard that's been in office screwing things up, royally I might add, for the last 8 years because he is mongrel POS socialist.

It's interesting that, in their zeal to bash Trump, they have been handed a perfectly inept Republican to bash the living #### out of....and they will make utter fools of themselves in order to bash Trump instead.
