I'm not sure this one works. It just says that if you're open-minded, you are easily swayed.

That's my point.
1) folks that believe in the Republicans/Democrats like a religion will not be swayed. They can't. They claim they're open minded but no factual evidence will change their mind. They're done.
2) folks that are open minded are willing to listen to reasonable information and make a decision without clinging to an ideology that defines them. (They don't care who wins the football game as long as it's the team that plays the best.)
3) so anyone wishing to be heard has an obligation to be honest. Completely so.

So I don't care about the ideology. Just gimme some truth. All I want is the truth. 

 
as cynical as I am I do belive that the majority of Americans will do the right thing if facts and only facts are presented to us in a fair manner
but it does seem that this idea is getting less probable as I witness the last 16 years

I can't say Perez Hilton's any more reliable, but it's a bit late in the day to worry about reliable reporting. You're in Trumpworld now. Facts are optional.

Perhaps you'd prefer the Daily Mail's regurgitation of the touchy-feely BS spew from Trump's head of the Presidential Inauguration Committee:



Trump's swearing in will be more 'poetic cadence' and less of a 'circus-like celebration that's a coronation,' Tom Barrack said.

You might see them if Douchebag Don faced any consequences for not publishing them. But I think the next four years are going to consist of Trump saying and doing whatever he wants until forced to do otherwise.

Americans saw Trump behaving just like that during the campaign and voted for him anyway. They wanted the crazy, hate-filled, sleazy narcissistic loudmouth and they got him.

Don't expect Trump to suddenly become ethical, responsible or accountable.Too bad so many people hated this past campaign: that's exactly what the next four years are going to be like.

Trump isn't the problem here Paul Ryan et al. are the problem.

"Plenty of time to design one"

The Republicans have had 6-7 years to come up with an alternative; perhaps they were too busy voting 60+ times in the House to repeal all or part of the ACA. What they have now are bare outlines of alternatives; I very much doubt that they'll have a fleshed-out replacement ready when the time comes. Millions and millions of people are going to lose coverage. This issue could easily turn into a third rail, like proposals to reduce Social Security or Medicare.

There is absolutely no way the GOP can cobble together a health plan in anything less than a year. The process does not move faster merely because a boss somewhere wants it. This is a bill that needs approval from 320-some people (House + Senate majorities). Then it needs to be sold to the public. Are they just going to say, "Here it is, have a nice day!"?? 

And the Clown-Elect, OMFG. This garbage that comes out of his mouth, repeal and replace will be simultaneous, on "same day or the same week", who the FUCK does he think he is kidding? Legislation at any level, much less the US House, does not work like that. 

I can only hope his own party gets sick of him so quickly they will just ignore him, but Congress has no spine.

You’re gonna be very, very proud, as not only the media and reporters, you’re gonna be very proud of what we put forth having to do with health care. Obamacare is a complete and total disaster.

So the easiest thing would be to let it implode in ’17 and believe me, we’d get pretty much whatever we wanted, but it would take a long time. We’re going to be submitting, as soon as our secretary’s approved, almost simultaneously, shortly thereafter, a plan.

It’ll be repeal and replace. It will be essentially, simultaneously. It will be various segments, you understand, but will most likely be on the same day or the same week, but probably, the same day, could be the same hour.
