That's a good comparison.

Kellyanne Conway looked like a court jester in that outfit. Only a complete idiot would walk around like that.

It will probably be a staff run account, but it's hard to tell what will happen under this administration.

Obama took all 13 million followers from the POTUS account with him to POTUS44, leaving Trump to start from scratch on the official POTUS account.

Oh, an old case of ANNA (Ain't No Niggers Allowed).

The President attacking the arts over criticizing or mocking him is really un-presidential behavior. Every President in modern times has been parodied or criticized, but you none of them went on deranged rants about it. George W. Bush got more mocked and criticized than anyone, yet he never ranted about it. In dictatorships, the arts are often the target of political retribution.

Problem is, most of what Sanders promised was not going to be accomplished even if he became President. He did the same thing as Trump, which was making guarantees without plans to back them up. Free tuition and everything else sounds great, but nigh impossible to accomplish. That aside, Sanders bought a nice house some months after the primary, which I felt was interesting. I can't not believe that some of that huge campaign account didn't end up in his personal account.

Low performing schools are in low income areas, which is why so many parents choose to send their kids to higher performing schools outside of their own neighborhoods. A lot of the schools in wealthier areas perform so well because of good PTA organizations that can raise enormous amounts of money for programs, so interestingly enough, good performance can't always be credited to the school district. Something else that seems to slowly gaining support among teachers is eliminating homework and focusing more on classroom learning.

I do agree with you about the irrational hatred, but there are still plenty of opportunistic Republicans in both houses that will put the squeeze on repeal. The projections are showing huge negatives if repeal goes through. I do think ACA will survive when the GOP decides to let repeal fade into the background.

Thousands of people were doing that pre-ACA. The hospital lobby does not want to see ACA repealed precisely because of that. ACA is not going to be repealed at the end of the day, because the costs are unbelievably high and would cause the insurance market as a whole to collapse.

And called it "good business".

Calling members of Congress really does help. The more opposition, the better. They will back off if enough people make a fuss, because they are all about keeping their seats. No one wants to lose a huge salary plus benefits, which is what members of Congress get and plenty of them need it badly.

And it's also important to note that a lot of people with market rate coverage pre-ACA saw rate increases, but that was only because the insurance companies were offering discount coverage plans that were crappy and once ACA came around those companies had to offer people better overall coverage that ended up being more expensive.

There is no fix all, perfect solution for healthcare, but the ACA got a lot of people insured that would have never otherwise received coverage. With all due respect, it's not an issue of "me, me, me", it's about getting as many people as possible covered. With that said, the insurance market is at risk of collapse if ACA is pulled, which means people who have no connection to ACA could lose their health insurance (including wealthier people).

I get no insurance from my work because I am an independent contractor, so my coverage comes through Medi-Cal. I was diagnosed with epilepsy at the beginning of last year after a lot of tests and doctor visits. If ACA goes away, I'm going to be paying thousands of dollars a year for my medications, which are well over $400 dollars a month out of pocket. ACA being repealed is also going to cause emergency room visits to go up again and those visits are going to go unpaid for the most part, which will costs hospitals big. Costs are going to go up across the board and that will be disastrous.

Trump is lucky he didn't get trolled by a singer. It would have been hilarious had someone accepted and then gotten on stage and sang horribly off key or just walked around like Mariah Carey.

Sorry, sometimes it's hard to resist troll stomping.

Shouldn't you be more concerned about why you are so obsessed with Kelly Ripa and her family? Just making a point. You're a little creepy.

Trump has the most negative approval ratings of any President-elect. He has no capital, no mandate and no credibility. He was elected by a foreign power. There is no one to compare him to and his supporters are aware of that, which is why they are so desperate to find someone to blame for his glaring problems.

Ringling Bros. Circus is shutting down after 146 years. If that isn't an easy joke right now, I don't know what is.

There are some pictures on the account of Cheryl in her dressing room before shows, so I'm inclined to think the account is real and the reps are just covering for her craziness. If it's not her, she's got one incredibly determined imposter that has managed to avoid being banned by Twitter.

Cheryl Lynn tweeted something to Anita Baker and when she didn't get a response, she checked Anita's profile and found out that Anita had blocked her. Well, that set her off and she sent a tweet asking if Anita blocked her because she could sing her down on stage, then Anita started sub tweeting about Cheryl. It was really weird.

Cheryl Lynn attacked Anita Baker on Twitter and got blocked, so she's got some issues of her own to deal with. That aside, Jennifer Holliday will do just about anything to make money and has some Trump like qualities of her own. When the film version of Dreamgirls came out, she made some backhanded comments toward Jennifer Hudson and the film. She was off the scene for years because of being too full of herself and difficult to work with. Again, it's all about the money for her.

Trump is sick when it comes to Ivanka, like Victor Lord sick. I'll just leave it at that. Today, CSPAN was hacked by RT (Russian television) http://fortune.com/2017/01/12/cspan-rt-interruption/

The media enabled Trump during the campaign by reporting non-stop on everything negative about Clinton, while not reporting on Trump's various issues. If there is a media crackdown, the media is to blame.
