@NEWSMAX @ThomTillis @JohnCornyn Just the delay on getting the cancelation of the $1.8B in writing from Todd Blanche tells you that even if he does sign something, he will either reneg or find another way to do it. #DontTrustHim #DonaldTrump

@nytimes I find it very strange that no independent, credible news source has been able to speak to or visit Mitch McConnell. If he's having regular meeting with staff, why can't one be scheduled with a reporter

@FoxNews I'm guessing the rehab center has no phones. He looks healthy enough to call into FOX News

"Socialism" is just a label. Most people don't even know what it means. Take away the branding of the word and look at the policies: Affordable houses Reliable access to health care Fairer tax system Better schools Improved infrastructure Safer neighborhoods Are you against these things for yourself? People need to start worrying less about others and focus on getting things thay benefit themselves. You know who already does this in your "Capitolist" society? The rich, and they don't seem to mind getting richer while you struggle.

This is the best description of Donald Trump and his presidency: The gap between rhetoric and reality illustrates a key feature of Trump’s presidency. Although he claimed he would “govern by a simple motto: ‘Promises made, promises kept,'” in his administration, a promise is often the achievement. It grabs headlines, dominates the news cycle, distracts from setbacks elsewhere, and allows Trump to promote himself. By the time it’s clear how little has changed, Trump, the media and most Americans have moved on. The Hill by David Wippman and Glenn C.

@Mediaite I wonder if he would say the same thing if Trump was PM of the UK?

@Mediaite The next Democratic president will have to spend a lot of time plugging the holes the Trump/SCOTUS team has uncovered/created in the laws of America. Question: Will the next president and congress have the willpower to give up the new found powers of the White House?

I was just saying somwthing along these lines today. We have 24/7 news channels but they all spend an inordinate amount of time on the same story. Do a segment on the SCOTUS decisions and move on. Every show, one after the other, the same thing. In Trump world there are so many more stories to uncover. Where does the oil money from Venezuelan Oil sales go? What did Argentina do with the $20B given to them by the US? And there are many more.
