The guy who helped ram through the abortion of a healthcare bill, known as the AHCA, stepped down as the chairman of the republican moderate caucus (The Tuesday Group) because his feefees were hurt after all of the criticism he received.

Reduces the deficit by $119bn whole leaving 23 million people uninsured. That's chump change.

They'll just take that and start new companies to give those 23 million people healthcare. Unless they have a pre-existing condition, that is.

Two Finger posted:In a sane world maybe You'll pry that party membership card from the cold dead hands of a lot of older people, but the under 40 crowd voted against Trump and the GoP en masse in 2016. That's problematic for long term retention as their base dies out.

Normally I'd say yes, because I'm on the East Coast where truck nuts and rich rednecks who invented their own sense of persecution live for this poo poo dominate the conservative voting block, but Montanans (even the ultra conservative ones) are some of the more even-keeled folk that I've met. Re: Hiking chat: Bear Peak in Boulder is a pretty awesome hike for being 5 minutes from downtown. It's an rear end-kicker if you aren't fully acclimated to the altitude though.

From a few pages back when were were talking about World in Conflict: Check out Steel Division: Normandy 44. Just came out yesterday and it's done in a very similar style in WiC, albeit WWII instead of the Cold War.

Acebuckeye13 posted:I love Steel Division, but it doesn't really play at all like World in Conflict. (Still recommend it though) Yeah I agree. WiC felt almost like a FPS, or rather a very literal interpretation of real time strategy. This is the closest thing I've been able to find

Accretionist posted:Also his handling of finance, mass deportations, drone war, state surveillance and some other poo poo I'm forgetting. The DREAM act was extremely the opposite of a conservative policy, as was creating the CFPB. Using technology to kill enemies from thousands of miles away instead of sending in ARE TROOPS is fairly "liberal" in terms of foreign policy.

In 10-15 years from now, when sanity has returned and you guys have restored your collective dignity the hard way with public hearings and public hangings... will these loving maga caps be regarded the same way as the klan hoods? They'll probably be viewed in the same category as wearing blackface WRT being racist as poo poo.

Perhaps I can get them a few weeks of Cuba vacation for their 60th birthday in a few years years if Trump continues to be dumb? Yes, because British tourists are so popular everywhere else.

I most of it tapered off after people realized how loving dumb of an idea the Iraq war was.

Booze Allen gave us Snowden, the guy who allegedly leaked the toolkit to the Shadow Brokers, and now this. That's what happens when you claim you're a consulting firm, but are largely just worried about filling billets with bodies.
