What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

"High risk pools" = death panels of the right.

Old people and sickly minorities just stick around for too long anyway.  Compared to Stand Your Ground or a routine traffic stop, diabetes doesn't kill teh blacks as fast as derspiess would like, but if you ignore it long enough it'll work out in the end.

Price has been a leading voice on health IT issues in Congress, fighting for a more doctor-friendly version of the law that regulates use of electronic health records. Last year, he helped collect 116 House signatures supporting a slowdown in the process.

Translation: I'm a doctor, I can't be bothered with all this stuff.  I'll be late for my tee time.

We'll give them a pill or something to ease the pain.

@realDonaldTrump & I working hard tonight. Thank you for the privilege of a lifetime, #PEOTUS.

I presume she has the sunglasses, even though it's dark outside, to shield against his (orange) brilliance.

Did his housekeeping staff quit?

It's the oldest trick in the slacker's handbook - crowded desk = "I work hard!" It's right up there with clicking/typing furiously when someone enters the room or constantly muttering under your breath while surfing websites.

Friend of mine has got an invitation for a "transition breakfast with the President-Elect" with an expected contribution of $5000. I guess he's come around to raise funds for the GOP, unless he's already cashing in.

"Transition breakfast" sounds like a morning meal that's coming back up again.

Perhaps. Of course, as you mention, all are so glaringly obvious.

David Petraeus shared classified info. Now can he be secretary of state?

Well, at least he didn't use private email servers, like Clinton or the Bush administration.

His trolling is pretty legendary.

Indeed, he is King of Trolls. It was funny, even kinda endearing, especially during the primaries.

Now it's just kinda meh, though.

If that's what America wants, a Troll-in-Chief, fuck it.

Interesting.  While the media focus on the latest Trump antics on Twitter, he gets away with numerous conflicts of interests.  It appears his Twitter rage strangely coincides with articles detailing his conflicts of interest, as if to drown the news.

Is he that good?

the press is that weak-willed more likely

most news sites use automated software that push a story to the front by the number of clicks it receives.  And then, more clicks gives more advertising revenues.

I see a bunch of campaign stuff, a copy of Time Magazine, two copies of a "Citizen Solider" blu-ray, and buried under a pile, what looks like either a resume or 1 page summaries of potential job-seekers.

And a guy reading Twitter feeds while his minder looks over to make sure he doesn't have a tantrum.
