POTUS 45.10 - Stage Two in Perpetuity

Re: POTUS 45.10 - Stage Two in Perpetuity

His Wikipedia page reads like an Onion article.
"Gianforte has outlined his position on retirement by using the Biblical example of Noah. He said, "There's nothing in the Bible that talks about retirement. And yet it's been an accepted concept in our culture today. Nowhere does it say, 'Well, he was a good and faithful servant, so he went to the beach... The example I think of is Noah. How old was Noah when he built the ark? 600. He wasn't like, cashing Social Security checks, he wasn't hanging out, he was working. So, I think we have an obligation to work. The role we have in work may change over time, but the concept of retirement is not biblical."[56][57][58][59]"

Not really. The authoritarian mind worships power and violence. This is the world we live in now. There is a non-trivial segment of the right that is indistinguishable from the mobs who brought Mussolini and Hitler to power. Trump won't be loading us into ovens anytime soon, but the impulse among the supporters is the same. It's the Wild Hunt.

Guys, a sitting VPOTUS once killed the former Treasury Secretary in an illegal duel and the criminal charges were dropped. You're all getting your panties in a twist over a sucker punsh. They used to happen every so often each year for a long, long time in politics, and likely with the press too - look up some historical quotes made by American politicians about the press. While I'm not advocating for them, and I'd like to think we've moved beyond such acts, but let's not pretend this is the worst thing to have ever happened in the realm of politics.

That is not the issue at all. If the caning of Charles Sumner is your bar for becoming worried about the growing fascist tactics in this country then you're going to be way too late to the defense of rule by law.

The portion of the country that supports Trump and that supports this Rule by Intimidation is less than a third and shrinking. At some level even they in their impenetrable denseness understand the only way for them to remain a relevant political force is through violence.

These people are dangerous. How many warnings do you need? At what point do their water carriers and apologists who are not fascists wake up and realize this isn't the democratic political game being played on the field, it's an attack on the norms of democracy itself? These people can only win if they destroy protections of the press and the vote. That is what is they are doing. How many vowels do you need bought for you?

Not at all surprising to see anyone defend someone assaulting someone else over a disagreement.

These are the same folks who want to spend money to kill other people as opposed to saving our own. And are ok with us giving secrets to thugs who run a country.

The hope that we got past who is the toughest wins an argument is still here- as opposed to logic and reason.

Yay.

The world certainly needs more thugs.

The speed we are heading toward Idiocracy is accelerating.

After Montana maybe people will understand now when I say there is a good chunk of America that isn't worth talking to, or listening to. We need to outnumber them. If we don't, we're done as a nation.

We're getting there. The human percentage has been gaining against the ape backdrop for all of our history. We're getting there. The end is not in doubt as long as we keep the apes from literally blowing up the world. This may be their last stand. Stand firm, survive, nature and their own destructive stupidity will select them out.

Popcorn, please. Hannity goes "on vacation."

Meanwhile Quinny, which has been a balm to him so far, has bad news for the Tinkling Tyrant. This in particular jumps out:

voters over 65 years old, divided in earlier surveys, now disapprove 53 – 42 percent

He's even losing The Olds. A new approach is needed.

Isn't this development good for opponents of the bill, though? I thought they needed to show a substantial savings in order to get it through the Senate without worrying about a filibuster?

Actually, no.

The best thing that could happen to opponents of the bill is for the Republicans to ram it through. Republicans have been running against and winning because of Obamacare for the last 7 or so years.

The Democrats can destroy them if they pass this bill. And when they do they can put Single Payer on the ballot and they can INSIST on Republican votes for it's passage. No Republican votes, no passage. That will keep the issue alive until the entire Republican party is destroyed.

This doesn't happen until we break the plutes' control of government. There is no way our slavemasters are going to allow Single Payer. That's for democratic republics where the people vote, not aristocratic plutocracies where dollars vote.

Meanwhile education in America reaches the Sewer age.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/24/...criminate.html?smid=fb-nytimes&smtyp=cur&_r=0

WASHINGTON — Betsy DeVos, the education secretary, on Wednesday fiercely defended budget plans to spend $1.4 billion on the Trump administration’s expanded school choice agenda, but refused to say whether her office would withhold funds from private schools that discriminate against students.

But Ms. DeVos said states, not the Education Department, would decide whether to withhold federal money from private schools that are neither required to serve a diverse pool of students nor held publicly accountable for doing so.

She offered similar reasoning when asked whether schools that received voucher money would be required to uphold special education students’ due process rights.

“If a parent chooses to go to a school that is not a public school, then that is a decision made and a contract made with that provider,” she said.

The education budget calls for cutting about $9 billion, or 13 percent of the department’s funding, from about 20 programs, including the Special Olympics for students with disabilities, after-school programs for low-income students and programs for gifted students.

Re: POTUS 45.10 - Stage Two in Perpetuity

Here’s the key paragraph in the CBO’s newly published report:

CBO and [the Joint Committee on Taxation] estimate that, in 2018, 14 million more people would be uninsured under [the House Republican health plan] than under current law. The increase in the number of uninsured people relative to the number projected under current law would reach 19 million in 2020 and 23 million in 2026.

Hilarious.
“We’re going to have insurance for everybody,” Trump said. “There was a philosophy in some circles that if you can’t pay for it, you don’t get it. That’s not going to happen with us.” People covered under the law “can expect to have great health care. It will be in a much simplified form. Much less expensive and much better.”
