    No.
    Hard stop.
    There are benefits, and always have been. Gorsuch, Haley, Jerusalem, ISIS, mostly areas where I would guess he gets good advice and he doesn't get in the way of it. Still, he gets credit for them. This tax bill seems like a disaster, and like many things related to Trump, personifies all of the cartoon-ish and generally mistaken stereotypes that the left has about the right. His presence in the Oval Office is a constant embarrassment to our country. The damage will be deep and lasting.

    Ryan shooting down irresponsible story saying he is going to resign soon.

    So, just in the last couple of days we had fake stories about:

    Trump firing Mueller
    CDC banning words
    Ryan resigning

    Great job media. You’ve been reduced to rumor mongering.

    The tax bill contains an attack ad on every page. Most members of Congress, Republicans and Democrats, are rich. They all file financial disclosure statements. It will be very easy for Democratic candidates to say, "Republican Congressman X or Senator Y voted to give himself a (fill in large dollar amount) tax cut while you got peanuts or nothing." Guy, I'd say both parties have negative stereotypes, and this bill caters to every one of those about the Republican Party.

    A story that has been denied is not fake, especially when denied by a proven liar like Ryan. Stories you don't like are not fake. Stories that say "Trump said x" and then x doesn''t happen are not fake. You fraudulent bad faith attacks on journalism render your other political arguments highly suspect. And "rumor mongering" is an especially bad faith charge coming from you, as a stroll through the pages of this thread would reveal in spades.

    Yeah. I know.

    Liberals plead to ignorance regarding the folks who’ve taken leadership roles in the resistance.

    She was one of the organizers of the Women’s March, but no one knows who she is, what she believes, or is tainted by their attendance at her event.

    But, every conservative is tainted by a guy like Richard Spencer, who no one ever heard of before the New York Times and others turned him into some kind of leader.

    It’s s neat trick.

    You are so right. I am 100% sure that none of those things will happen. None of them! Trump isn't thinking of firing Mueller, Ryan is definitely running again and the Trump appointed Director of the CDC is totally telling the truth as all people connected to Trump do.

    So she deserved to be called every vile name imaginable? Palin certainly was an odd choice but the hate she engendered immediately was the height of liberal hypocrisy. It was this board's finest example of TINMHITTMAL.

    This is a sports message board. Not a lot of people who follow the news.
