The administration (maybe not Trump himself) knows... They are trying to split the EU up. Speaking to Germany directly won't help, but how about Greece? Hungary?Trump administration asks Germany for talks on reducing their trade deficit with Germany. Germany tell them they have the wrong number, and to call the EU.

McCain and other republicans want to investigate into it.US Marines have been deployed on the ground in Raqqa, Syria in the fight against ISIS. Trump's next move after the failed raid, let's hope this one is more successful.
Also....... Maddow has more on Russia tonight. Is she building to something concrete or yet more tentative speculation?

I might be wrong, but i seem to remember there was something in the new GOP health plan (or some GOP politician said it) about their new plan being so much better because it gave people incentive to seek higher paying jobs. That statement is just nuts becauseWell pull your pants up into the $100k bracket, you lazy welfare seeking fecks.
(Republican approach)
Well I don't look at Trump as a Republican, more like a political chameleon, he will say and do whatever gets him the most kudos. He's been a lifetime Democrat, besties with the Clintons and donated millions to their coffers over the years. He ran as a Republican because he saw an opening and he also guessed he would be up against Hillary, someone he knew had lots of skeletons in her closet. He doesn't like Russia so much as he just loves the power and money on offer from a country and leader as corrupt as Russia and Putin. The oil and gas deals alone could make Trump billions in backhanders let alone the opportunity for more Hotels throughout the Eastern Bloc.I still find so odd that a "republican" like Trump loves Russia.

Except when it comes to foetusesI might be wrong, but i seem to remember there was something in the new GOP health plan (or some GOP politician said it) about their new plan being so much better because it gave people incentive to seek higher paying jobs. That statement is just nuts because
1. Apparently, a person deserving healthcare is dependent on their disposable income
2. Everyone can just change jobs at a whim and finding higher paid jobs is the easiest thing in the world.
I swear, the whole republican mindset is built on social Darwinism.
Trump isnt a republican he isnt anything but self serving. All he did was realize one side was bat shit enough to elect him and he acted accordingly.McCain and other republicans want to investigate into it.
I still find so odd that a "republican" like Trump loves Russia.
Icky stuff with icky men.
farrage is negotiating a price for the pee pee tapes?
They'll get the same answer. No country in Europe needs the US more than they need the EU. Including the UK humerously.The administration (maybe not Trump himself) knows... They are trying to split the EU up. Speaking to Germany directly won't help, but how about Greece? Hungary?

That's why i believe that if it went so bad for the GOP in 2018 they could decide to kick him out.Trump isnt a republican he isnt anything but self serving. All he did was realize one side was bat shit enough to elect him and he acted accordingly.
I'm gonna guess that Assange wikileaked Farage's Brexit
So he's finally admitted that the insurance industry is a scam
Trump's emissary.
Feel for Americans. They have leaders actively trying to make their lives more miserable.
They know. He's talking to their base who still thinks paying money for insurance is bad unless you get 100% of what you've put into it. The simple fact remains that they simply don't want to provide an affordable means of healthcare for anyone.
You wouldn't believe the number of people I've had tell me they'd rather pay insurance costs than a little extra in taxes for free at treatment healthcare. Typically goes something like...We get tax after tax imposed on us by the government, but when it comes to affordable healthcare coverage, they always argue that they don't want to burden people with unnecessary taxes. The politicians have brainwashed the public to such an extent that people believe all of that to be true. Irony here is that those States that voted for Trump rely heavily on Obamacare for their health care coverage. While it's not perfect by any means, it was a start. Payback is going to be a b!tch for a lot of people who will be going without medical insurance in those States.
I agree, I think the old adage will come true here. You don't miss something until it's gone. I also think that with global communication that people are slowly starting to realise that the Republicans horror stories about UHC aren't true. Everyone has friends from all over the world now and they all know people with UHC. They know it's not perfect, but they know it's damn better than the ridiculously expensive coverage they pay for in the USA. I think the people will have the final say now and will start to seriously kick off and protest, maybe even take their votes elsewhere.While it's not perfect by any means, it was a start. Payback is going to be a b!tch for a lot of people who will be going without medical insurance in those States.
It's the only way health insurance can work. Unbelievable.Tweet

I would in all sincerity like to do my own risk assessment. But the govt needs me to subsidize other people, so... I will probably pay more than I will ever cost, which is ok. But at least let's be honest about it.You wouldn't believe the number of people I've had tell me they'd rather pay insurance costs than a little extra in taxes for free at treatment healthcare. Typically goes something like...
Them: "But if I'm healthy I'm just wasting that money"
Me: "But if you get cancer you're saving $100,000s of dollars"
Them: "[GOP talking point about socialism]"
No doubt it'll pass the House of Representatives. I think even if some of the 'freedom caucus' vote against it...the real challenge, if any, will come in the Senate.Gonna get passed, isn't it. Repubs will wring their hands and say "aw maybe this ain't so good" then vote for it anyway.
I do and don't, I mean they continually elect leaders that clearly don't give a shit about them.Trump's emissary.
