Buzzfeed had posted 100 days 100 lies or misstatements.

Politifact had tracked his flip flops in that time.

The only members who would even attempt to pretend he's had a successful first 100 days are the same ones who seem to be boycotting the Trump threads in embarrassment. Coincidence? I think not.

They're tired from all the winning.
Donald Trump is a one-term LOSER

Based on his first 100 days, it turns out the only time Donald can win anything is when Russia is putting the finger on the scale in his favor...

Many of Trump's executive orders are toothless.

http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2017/04/28/trumps-executive-orders-are-mostly-theater-215081?cmpid=sf

They don't actually change policy, as many of them are directed at laws passed by congress and the president does not have the power to change or repeal those by executive order.

Even the one about repealing two regulations for every one new regulation passed - merely tells congress what he would like to see. If he doesn't like it, he can veto it, and if congress doesn't like that, they can override it.

I read in a different article, that EO actually says for every new regulation, two old regulations are to be IDENTIFIED that COULD be repealed, but not necessarily within the bill passing the new regulation.

Watching this Trump rally on TV.

It's amazing how stupid this crowd is. They'll believe any lie he tells.

They are truly a lost cause.

He should just tell the crowd that the wall is already built and Obamacare has been repealed. They'd believe it. Problem solved!

There was a sketch at the White House correspondent's dinner that imagined how Mike Pence might become President.

Quote:
“I think we all owe President Pence a debt of gratitude for bravely stepping into the role after Trump got his head stuck in that jar of honey. What a tragedy.”
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

He doesn't seem to care much about the
healthcare bill, he's almost shrugging it
off and not mad at all. He was saying
before Ryancare was even an issue
to just let Ocare die and then deal
with it. I admit I was shocked when
I heard Trump was behind R-Care, the
bill is crap, worse than O-Care in every
way.


I wonder how EB feels about Trumpcare 2.0, now that Republicans are trying to pass it again? Everyone (besides Republicans) agree it's an even worse bill than what they tried to pass in March.

Here's my prediction:

If the bill passes today: EB loves the new bill (even though it's the same bill as the one that failed).
If it fails: It was crap and even worse than the bill that failed in March.
