Yep. Also a plan to get out of the Middle East. Promises Made, Promises Forgotten.

I suppose that it would be asking to much to be able to see the great health care plan proposal prior to the election?

No dice. Not until you re-elect him AND give him back his house. In the meantime it's just shitter twitter policy.

Add to the list of things unknown on PA Ave, pretty much anything about Puerto Rico, and the hurricane recovery. Little things like he is tweeting 150% the aid given to that/cost of recovery so far, or that it is part of the US. another day, but his own staff rolled out actual facts and figures.

Did you really want him to finish this gem?

Donald J. Trump

Puerto Rico got 91 Billion Dollars for the hurricane, more money than has ever been gotten for a hurricane before, & all their local politicians do is complain & ask for more money. The pols are grossly incompetent, spend the money foolishly or corruptly, & only take from USA....


Who wants to tell him that Puerto Rico is part of the US?

as mentioned in the previous post: $40B, not the largest, and surprise.

The $91 billion number Trump harps on is a combination of the $41 billion set aside for recovery and the $50 billion that will be spent over the course of the effort, which could last decades, the Washington Post reported.

So far, $11 billion has been sent to Puerto Rico.

....The best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico is President Donald J. Trump. So many wonderful people, but with such bad Island leadership and with so much money wasted. Cannot continue to hurt our Farmers and States with these massive payments, and so little appreciation!

Trump just said "my father is German, was German. Born in a very wonderful place in Germany."

Fred Trump was born in New York.

We also have to get rid of immigration judges. Not sure why he thinks the General Secretary of NATO cares about any of this. I'm thrilled to know that he could fix all of this in 45 minutes.

As fucked as the US is, at least we're not Great Britain. What a screaming shit show Brexit is turning out to be. At this point, maybe Parliament should just dissolve itself and hand sovereignty back to the monarchy.
Be Bold!

I'm honestly surprised he hasn't suggest catapults at the border yet.

Pam Iovino wins the special election out in Pittsburgh. One member closer to flipping the PA Senate

Fix immigration = 45 minutes

Repeal and replace ACA = 9 years and counting (2+ years on Trump's watch and at least two more)

Build the wall and have Mexico pay for it = Never
