GOP consultants panicked party is headed for a 2020 wipeout by following Trump: ‘We’re diving into a wood chipper’

President Donald Trump’s bizarre decision to push forward with completely dismantling the Affordable Care Act, as the race for the 2020 election heats up, has Republican lawmakers and GOP consultants panicking that he will cripple them at the polls.

According to a report from the Washington Post, “a growing number of Republicans fear that it risks being tagged as the party of the 1 percent instead — handing Democrats a potent political message.”

Trump will lose in 2020 if this one thing happens — no matter what the Mueller report says: CNN panelist

A market researcher explained Saturday morning that President Donald Trump may lose his re-election chances if the economy backslides.

Rich Tau, the president of the marketing research firm Engagious, told CNN’s Michael Smerconish that voters care less about the content of special counsel Robert Mueller’s report than they do about the economy.

“When we see the full Mueller report, will it even matter?” Smerconish asked Tau.

“I’m very doubtful as to whether it will matter much at all,” the pollster responded. “It will be a tempest in a tea pot for the people on the beltway and people on the coasts. But for a lot of folks in the midwest, they’re concentrated on the economy, they’re focused on whether they have a job and whether their incomes are going up, how their families are doing. That’s what matters to them.”

This ‘cruel’ Trump rant has made Americans sick to their stomach

During a rambling and lie-filled rally Thursday night in Grand Rapids, Michigan, President Donald Trump mocked asylum-seekers fleeing violence and persecution in their home countries, suggesting they are not actually afraid for their lives.

“You have people coming up. You know they’re all met by the lawyers,” Trump said. “And they come out, they’re all met by the lawyers, and they say, ‘Say the following phrase: I am very afraid for my life. I am afraid for my life.'”

“And then I look at the guy. He looks like he just got out of the ring. He’s the heavyweight champion of the world,” the president said to laughter from the crowd. “He’s afraid for his life. It’s a big fat con job, folks.”

Trump’s remarks came amid outrage over migrant treatment in El Paso, Texas, where hundreds of people—including many women and young children—are being detained in what some described as “concentration camps.”

Nausea thy name is Donald John Trump-ski!

The idea has been floating about for a while, I just post it when the LSM brings it up again. Notice the Trump Chumps rarely comment on it. It's as if they are afraid to face the fact.

Trump has a plan to push Congress aside and run the government the way he wants: report

President Donald Trump is reportedly figuring out ways to circumvent Congress — and is doing so with the help of his acting chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney.

Axios reported that Trump and Mulvaney “have realized they’re passing no major legislation through this divided Congress.”

News of the president and his acting chief of staff’s maneuvering comes after reports from a Trump administration insider revealed that it was Mulvaney, and not Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, that pushed to eliminate the Special Olympics from the department’s upcoming budget.

On Friday night, CNN reported that an Education Department official said the agency’s attempts to put the program in the budget were repeatedly rebuffed by the Office of Management and Budget, which Mulvaney leads alongside his role as acting White House chief of staff.

Trumpski and Mulvaney= Dumb and Dumb ass!

Trump aides fear ‘tired’ president is wearing down and may not have the energy for 2020 campaign: report

Buried deep within a New York Times report on plans being made for Donald Trump’s 2020 re-election effort, some aides to the president are worried the 72-year-old president is showing signs of his age and may not campaign as hard as he did in 2016.

Of immediate concern to the campaign staffers is the possible uphill battle they will face in securing the electoral votes in the Midwestern battleground states that — surprisingly — went for Trump in 2016.


The Times reports, “Democrats and Republicans see an electoral map that will be far more challenging for Mr. Trump, whose support in three key states has sagged, and who faced an invigorated and organic level of Democratic turnout.”

Additionally, Trump’s people fear an internal revolt that might disrupt his path of the nomination.

“Mr. Trump’s experience at the 2016 convention, when a group of “Never Trump” Republicans that included high-profile delegates like Ginni Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, was a searing experience for him, aides say, and his team is looking to avoid a repeat,” the Times reports.

Then there is the matter of Trump’s age and his refusal, as of late, to schedule multiple rallies — including ones that involve substantial travel.

“After two years in office, Mr. Trump, 72, is tired, aides said. The unstoppable campaigner, so far, will commit to participating in only one campaign event a day, and recently balked at a possible rally out West during a fund-raising swing,” the report claims. “The rally may still happen, people familiar with the plans said, but only because campaign officials insisted on it.”

Maybe he shouldn't play so much golf?

This isn't a function of his age; it's a function of his total corruption and criminality.

Paul Krugman drops a bomb on Trump’s base — he just saddled you with $2 trillion more in debt

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman outlined all the reasons why President Donald Trump’s tax cut failed — and how much it’s going to cost American taxpayers.

Krugman pointed out that although the 2017 tax cut is Trump’s only “significant piece of legislation” to date, it only delivered for the nation’s richest.

What’s more, the columnist argued, is that the theory behind the tax cut “has turned out to be a complete bust” that will leave American taxpayers saddled with an additional $2 trillion in debt.

“The Trumpist theory — which was, I’m sorry to say, endorsed by conservative economists who should have known better — was that there was a huge pile of money sitting outside the U.S. that companies would bring back and invest productively if given the incentive of lower tax rates,” Krugman wrote.

“But that pile of money,” he continued, “was an accounting fiction.”

“Companies didn’t use their tax breaks to invest more,” he noted. “Mainly they used them to buy back their own stock. This in turn, put more money in the hands of investors, which gave the economy a temporary boost — although for 2018 as a whole, one of the biggest drivers of faster growth was, believe it or not, higher government spending.”

In spite of the large debt figure, Krugman said he’s “not deeply worried” at the looming $2 trillion deficit created by the tax cuts.

“Given low borrowing costs, the costs and risks of federal debt are far less than the usual suspects — again, the same people who cheered on the Trump tax cut — have claimed,” he mused.

“But think of all the other things we could have done with $2 trillion — all the infrastructure we could have built and repaired, all the people who could have been given essential health care,” Krugman wrote. “What a colossal, corrupt waste.”

We could have hired "All The Lawyers" and dumped Trump back on Fifth Ave. Let New York clean up their own mess!

OK Trump Monkeys, 'espalin' how a mere $2 TRILLION will be made up so Trump is only a 'bump in the road' rather than the Ditch that swallowed the National Bus.

Meanwhile he's screwing with their health care and zipping up what they're going to have to pay for produce at the supermarket when he closes the southern border.

Winning sure can cost Trumpettes a lot of money, can't it? I suppose they still think that Mexico is going to foot the bill.

Mick Mulvaney tells outrageous lie guaranteeing everyone will keep health coverage if Obamacare is repealed

“Can you guarantee that if you succeed in court that all of those tens of millions of people who have health coverage guaranteed because of Obamacare will not lose their coverage?” Karl asked.

“Yes,” Mulvaney replied. “Every single plan that this White House has put forward since Donald Trump has been elected has coverage of preexisting conditions. Every plan that Republicans in the House voted on in the previous Congress covered preexisting conditions.”

“The debate about preexisting conditions is over and both parties support them,” he continued. “And anyone telling you anything different is lying to you for political gain.”

Mulvaney, however, did not explain why Republicans have not already put their health care law in place ahead of Obamacare’s potential repeal.

Trump-care for everybody! You have to pass it before you read the PLAN!

"Plan,plan... I don't need no stinking Plan!" said Mick the prick.

Trump claims Homeland Security ‘is being sooo very nice’ to asylum seekers — ‘but not for long’

It was Rethuglicans who set up the exodus from Central America, Thanks Reagan, HW, and now Trumpski. Of course they were not the first, and some Demonrats probably helped, to advance the Wall Street "Filibustering For Profits."

And yes, the way we allow the two tier Justice system to work, allowing War Criminals and White Collar Criminals to wander off free when they should be doing time, has brought us to this point.

We let Reagan ignore the the Broland Amendment and his whole Iran-Contra conspiracy with no consequences. We let Bush-Chaney run their Rendition and Torture project and never prosecuted them for it. We let Obama get away with killing Americans by Drone and bitch when the Saudis use Bone Saws to do the same.

But there is no problem with Trumpski's lies, fuckery with the economy, and inept handling of Foreign policy. The MSM and LSM can't keep on topic when it comes to Government fuckery, like the recent court judgement that the police can not be sued even for unconstitutional behaviour.

Does America deserve the fate she has brought on herself?

Trump’s ‘corporate death’: New York’s attorney general has the power to kill the president’s businesses

New York’s attorney general has turned her sweeping investigative powers to focus on the Trump Organization — which she has the power to potentially dissolve.

Attorney General Letitia James promised shortly after her November election to “use every area of the law” to investigate President Donald Trump, his family and associates, and his business, reported NBC News.

She recently issued subpoenas to banks seeking information about the Trump Organization and the president’s finances, which drew Twitter complaints from Trump, and legal experts say James has “broad power” to go after his business.

New York law allows the attorney general to seek restitution and damages — or even order dissolution — if a business is found to have engaged in persistent fraud, and the 1921 Martin Act could allow James to subpoena witnesses and documents without first receiving a referral from the governor or a state agency.

The Martin Act applies to almost any financial transaction conducted in the state, and has been used in the past to pursue securities fraud and other white-collar crimes that are typically handled by federal prosecutors.

New York’s attorney general also holds, according to the state Supreme Court, the power to pass a “judgment of corporate death,” when a company’s crimes are deemed a “harm or menace to the public welfare.”

"It's up to you,
New York, New York"

That, according to a former New York attorney general, could have potentially defrauded a financial institution or its investors and customers, and a former federal prosecutor said proving fraud should be extremely easy to prove if documents show Trump misled banks about his assets.

 

[KeithD]

Yes, the upside of Trump's overweaning and overreaching political ambitions is that it has turned the spotlight on his family's business criminality and, with luck and a little bit of elbow grease, is going to sink his whole family. Poor Baron. A pariah even before he gets a crack at the family crime business.

‘Republicans are in trouble’: GOP pollster freaks out at data showing young voters fleeing her party


‘This is insane’: Legal experts furious over White House security clearance bombshells

Tricia Newbold, who works in the White House Personnel Security Office, told Congress last month that she kept a list of up to 25 people, some of whom had daily access to President Donald Trump, who had been granted access to highly sensitive material despite serious disqualifying issues such as foreign influence, conflicts of interest, concerning personal conduct, financial problems, drug use and criminal conduct.

Law enforcement and national security experts were aghast at the revelations.

Republicans secretly hope Trump loses his case for ‘politically catastrophic’ Obamacare repeal: Fox’s Andrew Napolitano

Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano said Monday that repealing the Affordable Care Act would be a disaster for the GOP — and that Republicans were secretly hoping President Donald Trump’s push to repeal the healthcare law would fail.

“Politically for the Republicans it’s an enormous problem, whatever you think of Obamacare,” Napolitano said, who opposes the law on constitutional grounds. “If the unconstitutionality of it is upheld, what are the Republicans going to replace it with?”

But, But ... Mick, the Prick, said that the Rethuglicans "had a plan"!

 

[KeithD]

Ah, well, the Trumpettes here don't have any concerns about actual national security threats. They've demonstrated their uncaring for the welfare of the country in favor of a corrupt, criminal, racist, neo-Nazi, lying, foreign asset, sexual abusing sack of shit who is taking them for a ride and openly laughing at their gullibility and stupidity.

Trump is the world’s worst cheat at golf, players and celebs say

Surprise, surprise!

Sixteen of the last 19 US presidents have played golf — and now, in Donald John Trump, the nation can finally boast the very best of them all.

Well, that’s what he’d like you to believe.

“To say ‘Donald Trump cheats’ is like saying ‘Michael Phelps swims,'” writes Rick Reilly in the new book “Commander in Cheat: How Golf Explains Trump” (Hachette Book Group), out Tuesday. “He cheats at the highest level. He cheats when people are watching and he cheats when they aren’t. He cheats whether you like it or not. He cheats because that’s how he plays golf … if you’re playing golf with him, he’s going to cheat.”

That's not all he cheats at!
