@arappeport Their new line is to challenge or mock every question first! Spicer and Scaramucci doing it since Monday.

I'm sure the people losing their coverage would disagree with Mr. Spicer.

It never ceases to amaze me that so many Americans don't recoil every time Spicer speaks on behalf of the President.

the republican party from the bottom to the top has utter disdain for the working stiffs that actually pay the bills and their salaries bloated as they are.

The guy who calls it like it is, who understands the plight of the people and will cut through all that red tape bullshit in Washington to make their voices heard.

Then they fill our ears with this kind of hateful crap that belies all their populist platitudes.

And still the Trump voters don't hear it and don't care.

We pay your salary through federal taxes. Funny thing, since your "boss" doesn't pay any taxes.
