2014 Donald Trump Landed a Sick Burn on 2017 Donald Trump


Update, May 4, 2017: This is relevant AGAIN because today, May 4, is also a Thursday and the GOP is again supposed to vote for the American Health Care Act. 

FAST FACTS ABOUT TODAY, MARCH 23, 2017:

1) Congressional Republicans are supposed to vote on the American Health Care Act, which would repeal Obamacare and be disastrous for millions of people.

2) Donald Trump is president. Trump strongly supports the American Health Care Act, which would be disastrous for millions of Americas (see item 1).

3) It is a Thursday.

Why is 3 important? Well, I’m glad you asked, my attractive friend!

Via my colleague Tim Murphy:

Trump tweets are like Shakespeare quotes: There’s one for every occasion.

BEFORE YOU CLICK AWAY!

“Lying.” “Disgusting.” “Scum.” “Slime.” “Corrupt.” “Enemy of the people.” Donald Trump has always made clear what he thinks of journalists. And it’s plain now that his administration intends to do everything it can to stop journalists from reporting things they don’t like—which is most things that are true.

No one gets to tell Mother Jones what to publish or not publish, because no one owns our fiercely independent newsroom. But that also means we need to directly raise the resources it takes to keep our journalism alive. There’s only one way for that to happen, and it’s readers like you stepping up. Please help with a donation today if you can—even a few bucks will make a real difference. A monthly gift would be incredible.
