Trump lies. I don't like it, I don't accept it, and I wish he would stop. It gets in the way of real discourse and discussion of the implementation of his campaign promises and other more important things. Too many of his lies are not even necessary.

Not that the lousy left cares anyway. They lie, too. Like this lying sack of crap, Nancy Pelosi:

"It was really shocking that somebody like Donald Trump could be president of the United States," she said.

"That motivated me to stay. Again, I would of been gone by now if she (Clinton) had won."

http://insider.foxnews.com/2017/03/11/nancy-pelosi-retire-hillary-clinton-president

The only reason she can say that with a straight face is because her face is frozen in place from all the Botox and surgery. It isn't like she was going to win reelection and then just resign. No, she would have wanted to be part of the power team for the Dems with Hillary. She might have been appointed to some office in the administration, but there is no way she would be gone. Maybe she would have retired near the end of her term but not by this point....no way!

Of course, we had to pass the bill to see the bill.

The one good thing about Donald's lie about Obama's wiretapping is that he's been keeping a relatively low profile since then.

I haven't had to see his ugly orange face on the TV as much. It's been nice.

Chess move, you mean. What's happened to
the whole 'Russia' narrative, the 'anonymous
source' wiretap narrative, since Trump made the
tweets. It's almost disappeared.

No it hasn't.

Perhaps you'd realize this if you stopped only paying attention to only far right media sources.

Welp. Looks like the WH has begun to walk back Donald's "brilliant" chess move.

LOL @ the CNN Headline:

Spicer: Trump didn't mean wiretapping when he tweeted about wiretapping

I think I've solved the mystery: Golden Boy's skin gets a little more orange every time he tells a lie!

It pretty much has. It's on the back page
now, below the fold.

Well today it is for sure because all anyone wants to talk about is what a disaster the CBO report on TrumpCare is for Republicans...

I really fail to see the need to pass a bad law this quickly.

Consider, if in 7 years of Obamacare, the GOP hasn't come up with a suitable replacement they can agree on, what makes them think something hashed out quickly in a few days will be any good?

Why not take the time needed and put something good together for a change?

Because NO healthcare plan based on Republican principles will ever be "good."

Republicans consider healthcare a privilege and not a right. Only a few are willing to admit this.

They have to blatantly lie about what the goals of their replacement plan are (massive tax cut for the rich, gutting Medicaid for the poor) in order to hopefully jam it through before anyone notices.

Thankfully, everyone seemed to notice and this plan will never pass as is...
