“I would dispute that we signed on to” Paul Ryan’s healthcare plan, Spicer says.
— Christina Wilkie (@christinawilkie) March 31, 2017
Oh, really Bullshit Spice?
On Tuesday afternoon, Trump sputtered such sweet nothings once again. But this time, he did so while singing the praises of Paul Ryan’s American Health Care Act.
“I think we’re going to have a tremendous success,” the president said at the White House, during a meeting with his House deputy whip team. “It’s a complicated process, but actually it’s very simple. It’s called good health care.”
“So, we’re going to do something that’s great and I’m proud to support the replacement plan released by the House of Representatives and encouraged by members of both parties,” Trump continued. “It’s a great bill, we’re going to have tremendous — I really believe we’re going to have tremendous support … I’m already seeing the support not only in this room, I’m seeing it from everybody.”
That was from March 7. Back when he was supporting the Ryan plan. Even then, Trump was trying to bullshit his way claiming that it had support from both sides of the aisle. It didn’t even have enough support from GOPers (the freedom from reality caucus).
There was bipartisan opposition to Ryan’s bullshit plan, which Trump supported.

The angry guy routine is an act from what I’ve read.
Read and keep this: dailykos.com. Someone investigated a number of the “Bernie supporters” that replied to his tweet where Sanders goes after Trump for his ties to Russia. I was wary of the title because I thought it was going to be another “ra ra Bernie” post, which I’m tired of. Instead, the author notes that a lot of the “supporters” seem to have ties to Stein and/or Russia.

Masterchef Junior. And really, if you can watch some of the British versions of Kitchen Nightmares, it’s a lot of the same thing. Same for his travel specials. I think he developed the yelling persona for American audiences because that seems to be what always “works” on those types of reality shows here.

The White House is one of the most secure buildings in the world. They literally know who everyone entering the building is.

The fact that he said that at a briefing makes my head hurt more than any amount of alcohol could.

It’s a total shit show. Trump still hasn’t nominated 100s of positions throughout top levels of govt, and he’s busy complaining the Democrats are stalling and keeping his nominations from moving.
The Senate is controlled by the GOP, and other than Gorsuch, whose nomination is moving forward (whether in order to kill the filibuster or towards a vote on him), it ultimately falls on him that he’s not getting his people nominated, let alone confirmed.
It’s also because he keeps picking people who have conflicts of interest that can’t be resolved.

I worked at a pizza place in college. While I am very much anti-pineapple on pizza, I always thought olives on a pizza was a greater sin/tragedy.
But then again, my ideal pizza was either pepperoni and sausage, or I’d go all out with the meat lover’s. Now I tend to go for pepperoni and garlic.
