He is going to nuke the market and make staffers in congress have really shitty insurance... such a dick

He does understand, that if he nukes the markets by ending the cost sharing payment to insurance companies, he will be blamed? I am guessing not.

Edit: A lot of the comments below asked what he was talking about with the Members of Congress bailout. Explained here: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/fact-checker/wp/2017/04/17/do-members-of-congress-pay-for-100-percent-of-their-health-insurance/?utm_term=.0621e4c22bf4

1. Neah neah-neah neah neah booga booga booga. . .

2. Taking away Congress' healthcare

Seems like a short trip to impeachment

[shraby]

3. He's not threatening the staffers, he's threatening members of Congress.

That will go over great, I'm sure.

He thinks executive orders are the last word in the law. He just might run into a buzz-saw called congress. They make the rules.

[Casprings]

6. Well both actually..

The whole story for how this works for congress is odd.

4. This is definitely a marathon, not a sprint.

We are dealing with a Russian agent determined to spread chaos in the United States.

It's that simple.

11. Shitty job for Russia... Congress just passed a sanctions bill with veto proof majorities.

5. Why isn't this dumb prick out golfing?

14. lol

I have no humor with this bullshit, but did get a laugh out if that.

7. He forgets that he still has

limits on his power. If Congress wants to they can grind his agenda to a halt. The question now is, do they have the stones to do it or will they continue to look the other way?

[Casprings]

9. He could do this.. no question

He certainly has limits.. but Congress would have to actually pass a bill to stop him from doing both the things in is saying. If he used his veto, they would have to pass it with 2/3rds majority.

17. The ACA is the law of the land.

Presidents take an oath to uphold the laws of the country.

Seems to me his threat to withhold payments, if carried out, is an impeachable offense.

8. WTF is this POS talking about ending "bailouts" for Congress??

Christ on a crutch this SOB is INSANE!!!

[Casprings]

10. Long story..

But basically, the ACA required congress and their staff to buy off the exchanging. Obama lets them use money that would have gone towards their employer based care to help in buying that insurance...

Basically, it doesn't fuck young staffers.

19. It's also owed - it was part of the compensation package that 2/3'rds of the plan is covered.

12. Yet another dumbass decree

The emperor's got no brain.

[Mc Mike]

13. Great idea, shitler. Declare war on the multibillion dollar insurance companies. Rec, nt.

[Vinca]

15. Congress spends the money, not the president.

What he wants doesn't really matter.

[Casprings]

16. Actually, the house has a law suit to stop the payments.

All he has to do is say that the executives agree with that reading of the law, and it is done

18. The GOP will owns this in 2018.
