- Trump shifts blame for health-care collapse to the far right (How about look in the mirror for a change, dude?)
- The lessons Trump and Ryan failed to learn from history (“Their health-care fiasco could have been avoided if conservatives still believed in anything beyond tax cuts and deregulation.” I doubt they even read.)
- In Need of Win, Trump and the G.O.P. Pivot to Tax Reform (This won’t end well either, unless they reach out to Democrats ASAP and make this bipartisan.)
- G.O.P. Struggles for Unity Post-Obama (Yeah, what is the party of white nationalists going to do now that they don’t have the black guy to hate on? Poor babies.)

- Freedom Caucus Loses Member Amid Trump Criticism for Health Care (This caucus has NOTHING to do with “freedom,” more like the opposite.)
- Trump is finally lashing out at the right enemies (“Movement conservatism is about as popular as toe fungus.” I’d MUCH prefer toe fungus to the far-right wing in this country.)
- Trump’s awkward meeting with Angela Merkel just got more cringeworthy (“Trump reportedly handed the Chancellor an invoice for what he thinks Germany ‘owes’ NATO and the U.S.” Worst president ever.)
