Trump "something terrific" healthcare turns out to be same old Republican crap https://news.google.com/news/amp?caurl= ... pt0-947140
Republicans “made the public think Obamacare caused all the trouble,” former Medicare official Don Berwick told Kaiser Health News. “That's absolutely wrong. They could repeal it tomorrow and costs would continue to go up.” If the GOP executes broad changes in the law but can’t quell the cost trends, it will be blamed for the failure.
Lol, the BBC is saying it would take 4 years to opt out of the Paris climate deal.
The BBC obviously doesn't understand US law, the Senate did not ratify the Paris deal as a treaty as the constitution requires Trump is under absolutely no obligation to honor it. He can drop out day one
A rational skeptic should be able to discuss and debate anything, no matter how much they may personally disagree with that point of view. Discussing a subject is not agreeing with it, but understanding it.

Actually he has an obligation to the citizens of Florida and other coastal areas, who are seeing their cities being flooded. He has an obligation to the citizens who are being hit by extreme weather. He has an obligation to Pacific islanders whose whole island nations are being sucked under sea. He has an obligation to the prevent coral regions going extinct and affecting the hundreds of millions who live off them... And so forth.
If Trump thinks he has no civic obligations then this shows exactly why he is, as everyone has being saying, profoundly unfit for the job of President of the US.
Oh, and see the way you think this funny - please get a garden hose. Stick it to your car exhaust. Feed it through your car window. Start your engine. And inhale those sweet, sweet fumes.

...but he has a greater obligation to the fossil fuel lobby's ability to increase their shareholder dividends and executive pay.

He also has obligations to insurance companies who have to pay out increasingly more claims because of worsening climate. I'm hoping they and other powerful interests can tell Trump where to go.

Insurance companies (healthcare too) can maintain profit growth by reducing levels of cover and pushing up prices. At least in the short term, which is the only term that matters these days. The point is that profits will always Trump social considerations. If the US think they've just elected a man of and for the people then they're playing a hopeless game of poker with a shit hand dealt from the bottom of the pack and worthless chips.

Good! Trump's liberating them from Islamofascism & slavish obscurantism. Maybe they'll even become atheists?

They should come to that point through enlightenment, not through being threatened and assaulted.
