Genuine question.
Yeah, even to me, the rampant conservative, the whole thing is pretty weird.

As I said...jealous, mean-spirited and selfish.

Watching Spicer's attempt at spinning a positive outlook for the healthcare bill just hours before it failed kind of makes me respect him a lot...It's got to be a shitty job, spinning bullshit for a crazy person every day. I sort of wish he'd just quit and admit that Trump is a maniac...I'm sure someone would hire him just based on his loyalty to his bosses.

you're probably more of a reactionary though. American conservatives have less desire to please the crown than the Queen's loyal subjects. ;)

NPR's radiolab has a story about professional wrestling. Is this an attempt to reach out to the hoi polloi and try to retain federal funding?

Also, If I'm not mistaken, at some point Trump was involved with professional wrestling.

''Tis true. It's such bad strategy too, it can only be to pacify Trump.

That episode was from over a year ago, I think? It's also a great episode.

It's gonna feel so great when Paul Ryan steps down, but will it be worth it if Trump forms a union with the Freedom Caucus?

The problem is that the GOP's two primary voting groups, the elderly and the working class, are the recipients of more than two thirds of all entitlement spending. And they all want whatever program helps them to be the one that gets saved. Hence the ACA debacle.
