Will Trump's Secret Plan for Healthcare Help Him Win in 2020?
 Trump and the Republicans have essentially told us that they have a plan for healthcare that's better than Obamacare and better than anything Bernie or other Democrats could come up with. But, they can't tell us the details until after the election because it is so explosive and so extraordinary. So we just have to vote for them in 2020 and wait for the wonderful healthcare program to be rolled out. Just like Richard Nixon told us in 1972 that he had a secret planned in the word Vietnam, and we just had to wait until after the election for him to give us the details. It worked for Nixon and 72; will it work for Trump in 2020? -Thom |
Tuesday's Daily Stack 
Hour One: Will Trump's Secret Plan for Healthcare Help Him Win in 2020?
Article: " 8th Amendment" " Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted." Quote: "I don't want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub" by Grover Norquist.
Quote: " It violates the essence of what made America a great country in its political system. Now it's just an oligarchy with unlimited political bribery being at the essence of getting the nominations for president or elected president. And the same thing applies to governors and U.S. senators and Congress members. So now we've just seen a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors who want and expect and sometimes get favors for themselves after the election's over'." - President Jimmy Carter on unlimited money in politics on the Thom Hartmann Program, 28 July 2015.
Hour Two: "In the Event That I Die From Gun Violence - Please Show the Photo of My Death"
Quote: " Stevenson was once approached by a young woman supporter, the first time that he decided to run for the president's post. She said, 'Governor, every thinking person would be voting for you'. He retorted, 'Madam, that is not enough. I need a majority.' " - Adlai Stevenson.
Hour Three: 'Time to Act': Nationwide Protests Planned If Barr Fails to Release Full Mueller Report By Tonight- Zac Petkanas, Spokesperson - TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw.org 
Quote: " Barr's strategy has been to stall past Dec. 15, when the law authorizing independent counsel expires; Republicans recently filibustered its extension to death. ... But the Coverup-General may be overlooking the Senate's understanding of its prerogatives. If the Senate Judiciary's official call is rejected, chairman Biden is prepared to consult with chairman Boren about a joint committee investigation; or with Senate leaders about a special committee; or, he says, 'one committee may be given jurisdiction by the Senate as a whole.'" - William Safire.
