Donald Trump and US politics

Maybe instead of a vagina, use a penis and a penis with an X through it, to be more inclusive. Heck, we can use urinal vs. toilet pictures, and have the urinal washrooms just urinals, because the savages who use those things probably don't need a sink. This is essentially unisex, but better than eliminating urinals completely, because all the drunk barbarians would probably pee everywhere if they didn't have a urinal. Of course they pee everywhere anyway - can you believe some places needed to add urine detectors to elevators?

Hmm, the skepticism of the new health care plan seems unfounded.

It's actually the World's Greatest Health Care Plan - even says so in the title:

Compromise is the fuel that actually drive progress, not ideology. Congress could actually do some good for a change.

Didn't work out to good for Clinton. He compromised plenty with republicans and they praised him for it at first. Then they turned around and blamed him for their failures. Under Obama you had republicans shoot down their own bills because Obama might have taken credit if they succeeded. Then you have the highly partisan people that always show up to vote who would kill you for compromising.

The smarter political play is to let Republicans hang themselves with a shitty health care bill. Health Care has pretty much screwed who ever tries to touch it. The Republicans didn't compromise and got rewarded for 8 years of obstruction. Not sure the Democrats have the balls to do the same play though.

The only time you will see both parties compromise is when the American people are 100% getting screwed.

Allow me to reiterate: the replacement bill is shit. And more Ryan's baby than Trump's.

Even fox news is slamming the Republican Insurance Plan(RIP to keep it short). I thought that everyone could agree that it is a shit healthcare plan.

I remember when people said (here in this topic even), that the ACA was bad because of the mandate, people went as far as calling unconstitutional. Now the new healthcare plan add 30% in price if you lapse your healthcare plan for 63 days (30% for a year), and that money doesn't even go to the government, it goes to insurance companies.

I like how is completely justifiable for republicans to obstruct democrats for no reason, but when republicans are in power democrats have to forget and forgive, get in line and do what they are told.

Democrats say: "Let's bring jobs back to america"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bring_Jobs_Home_Act
Republicans say: "F-you!"
Trump say: "Let's bring jobs back to america"
Republicans say: "Yeass!! Let's make america great again!!! <3"

No, Credit Suisse isn't a new flavor...

Credit Suisse: Starbucks Stock Rating Drops 80% After Announcing Opposition to President Trump…

Back in January Starbucks announced they were going to stand in opposition to President Trump; and to display their virtuous immigration bona fides they announced their intention to hire 10,000 refugees as employees in lieu of current American applicants for employment.

An almost immediate backlash began as pro-USA consumers and President Trump supporters turned away from the Starbucks brand. As a consequence the Starbucks business model has been severely impacted.

Prior to their virtue-signaling announcement, Starbucks held a +80 position with Credit Suisse. Today that rating dropped to ZERO as analysts announced the latest brand rating against the back drop of significant drops in sales.

So, who holds the purse-strings in the US economy? I'll give ya a hint: We vote. =^[.]^=

Thats because republican are socialists too. Just less so. If they had balls repeal EMTALA that forces doctors into slavery as they must serve ppl, repeal income tax even starve the beast and evapote about 95% of Federal government. I'm straight R only because they are less worse than D but I have no illusions they are deep state socialist slime balls

Yet their worth more today then the day they announced it. The boycott seems to have been short lived. Kinda like the fake outrage conservatives have every year with the holiday cup. Pretending that you can hurt a company worth 80b or have any real power over it is comical.
