It will be interesting to see how this health care debate affects the polls. This bill disproportionately affects Trump country. Of course the medicaid cuts don't happen until later so perhaps they won't realize it.Make America Great.

It should be a crime to get someone's tax returns without their consent. I know you hate trump, but if that was BO, you'd be pissed.
Neither side seems decent anymore.

It isn't about sides as it is a lot less likely that the reported in question was sent those two pages by some Democratic operative.

Froot:
That was a worthwhile read from Vox. I agree with the political points of it for sure.
Personally, if I'm the Rs then I either don't touch healthcare or rip the band-aid off and go full-throttle. There are no half-measures because not matter what you do, if you touch it at all you own it (the Carville Doctrine). If you're going to touch it, you might as well go all in. You're going to get crushed no matter what you do. There is, literally, no successful political course one can plot when dealing with this issue.
Of those two choices, I'd try opt of the first. Ideally make it look like you tried something, but it couldn't get through. Hopefully 3 Senators defect in states that they can afford to do so.Dan Patrick: What was your reaction to [Urban Meyer being hired]?
Brady Hoke: You know.....not....good.

Who had access to only the first two pages of only one year of Trump's taxes? Seems like it'd be a short list

Who cares, it's a nothing burger. If he releases all of his taxes and they turn out to be similar to 2005, he has vanquished a potent talking point. He should release them all, it would help him out. More people would trust him.
Everyone knows as soon as you say you can see something or do something, it draws a lot more attention. Release them all and they have no more power.Last edited by froot loops; March 15, 2017, 10:50 AM.

I know who you were referring to. I'm just wondering about Jeffs silence in the face of your personal attacks.
If people are sick and can't pay for treatment, there are two options. Die, or get care and pass the costs on to others. Which is what I said. You don't care if poor people die for lack of treatment. I'd prefer to see them get treated in an orderly way.To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" Kobayashi

What's more likely really is that one of the thousands of places he submitted them to for due diligence or loan underwriting had a document clerk copy itTo be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" Kobayashi
