It's honestly impressive how bad it is. 7 years of bemoaning Obamacare and the best they can do is this? just lolforever When fox news is straight up asking politicians questions like "won't this bill be a hard sell because it actually takes from the poor and gives to the rich?" you know your bill is DOA

A quick example getting tossed around was that a retired 64 year old with a fixed income of 26k/yr pays around 2k a year now, whereas under the new plan that person would pay 14k a year. e: https://i.imgur.com/3MnSIqO.mp4

morestuff posted:Republicans control the White House, Congress and most state legislatures, they're already getting away with whatever the courts let them get away with What I mean by "get away with it" is that Pence or Hillary pulling the same poo poo but nicer would draw nowhere near the amount of scrutiny that Trump has. Just look at libs condemning young people for not voting for Hillary because she was a hawk when Trump ramps up military spending. Hillary doing a bad thing isn't nearly as awful as Trump doing the same bad thing.

People that share her center-left (center-right) politics go easier on Hillary for obvious reasons but she…seemed pretty scrutinized to me

MacheteZombie posted:It's honestly impressive how bad it is. 7 years of bemoaning Obamacare and the best they can do is this? just lolforever It's almost like they just played political theater for 7 years and never actually put any thought into the actual bill beyond their usual bullshit. morestuff posted:It probably won't lead to impeachment but the Russia stuff has led to the resignation of Flynn, Sessions recusing himself from the hacking probe, and gives people more of a reason to put Trump's foreign policy under the microscope. So far it seems like the only thing that puts the administration on a real defensive even if it does lead to pundits saying stupid stuff a lot, which they'd do anyway Yeah, the bemoaning of the Russia stuff is honestly confusing to me because it's seems to be doing actual damage. Like this isn't a "what do they think this will do" situation. It's already done stuff and the Trump administration continues to be ultra cagey about it. He's been in office less than two months and bureaucracy is ultra slow. Give this poo poo time to go through the system before declaring it a lost cause. Hell the ethics committee JUST officially brought up that Trump deleting tweets could be against the law and that came up on his first day. Honestly it's amazing that the Russia stuff has already done as much damage as it's done.

For those talking about how weird it is that Vargo had those tweets go viral, let's not forget the time he asked Robert Zemeckis why his movies stink and it got reported in EW. edit: also lol@ Zemeckis responding that Mars Needs Moms is "the best 3d movie since Avatar"

Unrelated...ugh http://www.theroot.com/everything-you-think-you-know-about-the-death-of-mike-b-1793261221 I'm kind of disappointed that I don't feel as disgusted as I think I should because of how expected this is.

The difference is that Bush had enough dignity to never actually talk about that and, hell, he only talked about the Kanye thing when he left office. Hell, I'm willing to believe that the Eminem thing is just standard procedure for that type of thing rather than Bush having any hand in it.

Once again, that's still a different thing as that was more him responding to the an issue of the day that he'd be expected to have an opinion on rather than insulting a guy for dissing him in a music video. It's still dumb but it's more in the category of Obama calling Kanye foolish than what this is.

Like this transcripts (which also included Brown's friend that was with him) painted a much more nuanced picture while this is just "everything you assumed was correct"
