Art of the Fail: Trumpcare vote cancelled

koshergrl Why is 90% of your content ad hominem? Keep it to 20% like the rest of us.
your OP is ad hominem.

I use ad hominem. But I use it with content.

You could learn a lot from me. But you won't.

You will note that my posts are sourced. Why don't you try addressing the points, instead of being distracted by the shiny truth nuggets and whining that they're too truthful?
 
What was the final vote on the GOP plan?

There wasn't a vote. There probably wont be one tomorrow either.

It's wishful thinking to believe that you can flip 30 no votes overnight. The bill is dead.
 
OP ad hom example:

"Breaking News. They just didn't have the votes, so they "postponed" the vote.

"Dealmaker Donald couldn't deliver. Maybe he can write a new book titled "Art of the Fail."

1. Who is "they"?
2. Who is breaking this news?
3. Where is the evidence that Donald can't deliver?
4. Where is the source of this alleged *story*? Why should we believe the OP?
5. Who said they didn't have the votes?

That's what I would write on your OP if I were editing it for a newsletter, or for a school paper.

Then I would write a big F on it in red ink, and give it back to you to fix.

Moron.

Time's Michael Scherer interviewed President Donald Trump on Wednesday for an upcoming cover story. Scherer's thesis is that Trump deliberately makes unproven charges because "the fact that they are disputed makes them a more effective message, that you are able to spread the message further, that more people get excited about it, that it gets on TV."

Sure. It's as good a theory as any. As usual, I could spend the whole day just pulling out excerpts and—oh hell, let's pull out some excerpts. There's this:

You say that Ted Cruz's father was with Lee Harvey Oswald.

Well that was in a newspaper. No, no, I like Ted Cruz, he's a friend of mine. But that was in the newspaper. I wasn't, I didn't say that. I was referring to a newspaper. A Ted Cruz article referred to a newspaper story with, had a picture of Ted Cruz, his father, and Lee Harvey Oswald, having breakfast.

And this:






You don't feel like Comey's testimony in any way takes away from the credibility of the tweets you put out, even with the quotes?

No, I have, look. I have articles saying it happened. But you have to take a look at what they, they just went out at a news conference. Devin Nunes had a news conference. I mean I don't know, I was unable to see it, because I am at meetings, but they just had a news conference talking about surveillance. Now again, it is in quotes. That means surveillance and various other things. And the New York Times had a front-page story, which they actually reduced, they took it, they took it the word wiretapping out of the title, but its first story in the front page of the paper was wiretapping. And a lot of information has just been learned, and a lot of information may be learned over the next coming period of time. We will see what happens. Look. I predicted a lot of things that took a little of bit of time. Here, headline, for the front page of the New York Times, "Wiretapped data used in inquiry of Trump aides." That's a headline. Now they then dropped that headline, I never saw this until this morning. They then dropped that headline, and they used another headline without the word wiretap, but they did mean wiretap. Wiretapped data used in inquiry. Then changed after that, they probably didn't like it. And they changed the title. They took the wiretap word out.

And finally this:

But you are saying to me now, that you don't believe the intelligence community when they say your tweet was wrong.

I'm not blaming. First of all, I put Mike Pompeo in. I put Senator Dan Coats in. These are great people. I think they are great people and they are going to, I have a lot of confidence in them. So hopefully things will straighten out. But I inherited a mess, I inherited a mess in so many ways. I inherited a mess in the Middle East, and a mess with North Korea, I inherited a mess with jobs, despite the statistics, you know, my statistics are even better, but they are not the real statistics because you have millions of people that can't get a job, ok. And I inherited a mess on trade. I mean we have many, you can go up and down the ladder. But that's the story. Hey look, in the mean time, I guess, I can't be doing so badly, because I'm president, and you're not. You know. Say hello to everybody OK?

Trump obviously prepared for this interview, and his theme was: I am always right. Seriously. Over and over he went down a list of all the things he's predicted that turned out to be true. Donald Trump is always right. Got it? Okay then.
 
Before you anti-Trumpers get too excited, given the hole that he dug himself into by rushing a horrible bill forward prematurely; this was the best possible outcome for him. I absolutely agree that the optics, in any scenario, are negative, regardless, this was the best of those negative outcomes...
He has a strategy.
 
So to recap..


The OP isn't sourced because it's a lie and ad hom.

The vote hasn't been canceled. It has been postponed, so that nobody has to vote at 4 am.

And it looks like the Freedom Caucus is going to take the fall.

Win/win.
