I will never forget George Bush's attempt to refine health care. One of the bills got killed in committee. A reporter asked the committee chairman "You say it was a good bill, why did it get killed?" and the dude said "It WAS a good bill. Too good to hand to the President in an election year."

Imagine that! Same reasoning applied as "pass it to see what's in it". As a matter of fact it hasn't been that long since that same person, who said pass it, said of another bill, "We can't possible consider that! After all, it's a Republican bill, you know."

I don't understand the problem. So far, President Trump has made good on many of his campaign promises. He's done exactly what he said he would do.

What did people expect?

He has not accomplished a single thing of substance.

1. Build a wall along the southern border that's taller than the arenas where Trump holds his rallies, taller than any ladder and one foot taller than the Great Wall of China. This "artistically beautiful" wall will be constructed out of hardened concrete, rebar and steel, and it will be "the greatest wall that you've ever seen" -- so great that the nation will likely one day name it "The Trump Wall."

2. Make Mexico pay for the wall. If Mexico refuses, then the United States will impound all remittance payments taken from the wages of illegal immigrants, cut foreign aid, institute tariffs, cancel visas for Mexican business leaders and diplomats, and increase fees for visas, border-crossing cards and port use.

3. "If I become president, we're all going to be saying 'Merry Christmas' again."

4. Get rid of Common Core because it's "a disaster" and a "very bad thing." Trump says he wants to give local school districts more control and might even eliminate the Department of Education.

5. The Environmental Protection Agency might also disappear.

6. Get rid of Obamacare and replace it with something "terrific" that is "so much better, so much better, so much better."

7. Knock down the regulatory walls between states for health insurance, making plans available nationally instead of regionally.

8. Rebuild the country's aging infrastructure -- especially bridges and airports that look like they belong in a third-world country -- for one-third of what the United States is currently paying for such projects.

9. Save Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security without cutting benefits.

10. Defund Planned Parenthood, YET:11. "I will take care of women, and I have great respect for women. I do cherish women, and I will take care of women."

13. Temporarily ban most foreign Muslims from entering the United States "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on." Trump would allow exceptions for dignitaries, business people, athletes and others who have "proven" themselves.

Trump calls for 'total and complete' shutdown of Muslims entering U.S.
Republican presidential contender Donald Trump said on Dec. 7 that he was in favor of a '"total and complete" shutdown of Muslims entering the United States. (C-SPAN)
14. Bar Syrian refugees from entering the country and kick out any who are already living here. Trump says wealthy Persian Gulf nations like Saudi Arabia should pay to set up a heavily guarded "safe zone" in Syria 15. Heavily surveil mosques in the United States. Trump has said he's open to the idea of closing some mosques.
16. Create a database of Syrian refugees. Trump hasn't ruled out creating a database of Muslims in the country.

17. Never take a vacation while serving as president.

18. Prosecute Hillary Clinton for her use of a private e-mail server while serving as secretary of state.

19. Make medical marijuana widely available to patients, and allow states to decide if they want to fully legalize pot or not.TALK TO SESSIONS ABOUT THAT.....

AND THE LIST GOES ON. TO SEE THE ENTIRE LIST GO TO: Here are 76 of Donald Trump’s many campaign promises - The Washington Post

Most republicans are too stupid to comprehend what you have written even though it is right on the mark.

Your argument is persuasive. Perhaps you have a newsletter that I might subscribe to?

What Have We Done??.

Progressives have done nothing except protest, make up fake stories, defame, slander, cause property damage and bodily injury.............................and prevent serious people from solving this nation's problems.

Progressives are really best at feigning indignation:D
And the beat goes on..............

Personal Best Regards:

I realize you have a plethora of "fake stories" but since, as always dyou give no details, just accusations, perhaps one or two of the "made up" stories would help us understand.

I have some friends who consider themselves progressive but in no way fit into any of your serious accusations, so maybe instead of your ACCUSE AND RUN approach., you could give some examples that allow you to accuse so many hard working REAL patriots of so much

And, despite your smug acceptance, I do not "feign indignation" when the President of my country makes public Very serious and KNOWINGLY FALSE ACCUSATION, not only of an ex President, but a foreign ally. Not "feign indignation when that same President makes a KNOWINGLY FALSE accusation of illegal voting numbering in the 5 million range.

You accept the mockery of our White House and our Presidency by the world as just okay with you, meanwhile while ignoring that, attacking with absolute no knowledge millions of other Americans.

Then, you attack posters because they think it is important, our presidency, and you feel it is much more important to attack a group of people who has sinned and has a different political view than yours.

My indignation over this President is neither feigned nor is it based on made up stories.

Your emotion however ...

Good joke! :a20:

Your ONLY reason for indignation is that you assured us that Hillary would win, and she lost really, really bad.

Ooops, did I bring up her name when you liberals demanded that we refrain from mentioning her terrible massacre?

Sorry, give me a bill for that stuffed animal that you are going to need for my mean remark. :)

Stay chilly

You laugh at the notion of FAKE stories, but the first thing I read about yesterday morning was that the new healthcare bill had PASSED.:beer3:

Let's see. How do I put this so as not to embarrass or insult you?

You do realize that this is a Villages website, right? And you do know that the majority of residents in The Villages are conservative and supporters of President Trump, right?

So, to put this politely so as not to hurt your feelings.........are you being satiric or are you really a fool?

Did you wish to use the ignore button as you wander the three counties that contain The Villages and its CONSERVATIVE residents?
