I hope he does go after Clinton, because that ends the unspoken 'you don't impeach me, I don't impeach you' agreement which every new administration has.

I can only imagine how much better the world would be today if Obama went after the Bush administration.

Also, corrupt public servants should be fed to woodchippers. So there's that.

I'd just like to point out that this already basically happened under the original ACA {{{Affordable Care Act, i.e. Obamacare}}}: all congressional staffer healthplans were put on the exchanges, other federal employee insurance plans were revised to ACA {{{Affordable Care Act, i.e. Obamacare}}} guidelines, and the federal contractor regulations were revised to award Health and Wellness stipends that were designed to encourage federal contractors to buy onto the exchanges to bolster the pools. And the reason that this idiot freeper and you the reader probably haven't heard about this is that it pretty much worked out fine.

But don't the politicians themselves get a super gold deluxe healthcare plan which exists separately from anything the plebs get?

Ill be fair and say the secret service did say this has been a long term problem even before Trump. He's certainly not helping but its just a matter that the neccesary steps to protect the president continue to get more elaborate and they're required by law to follow all of them wheyher the president wants it or not.

But I think he's the first president to charge the secret service over $60,000 for the use of his own golf carts when he visits Mar a Lago.

Which is so lovely I can barely even process it.

My "favorite" among the allegedly reasonable moderate Republicans is Susan Collins, who can reliably be counted on to express any number of serious concerns for whatever the administration's current hell legislation is, prior to falling in line and voting for it.

It always annoys the hell out of me that the press reports on politicians' comments, but rarely their actual votes.

I know a lot of votes are anonymous, so the press should follow up with them and ask them outright how they voted.

It would really help with those 'maverick' politicians.
