Well what a difference a day makes. On Thursday Donald Trump was sitting in the cab of a monster truck demanding that Republicans support his plan to replace Obamacare.
Or else.
And when he woke up yesterday morning, he seemed pretty confident his Trumpcare plan would be approved.
But sadly for him, that's as good as it got.
Well there he was yesterday, sitting behind the wheel of a monster truck, looking like he was about to start mowing down his many enemies, real or imagined.
But the truck wasn't moving, thank goodness. Donald Trump wasn't going anywhere.
And neither is his plan to destroy Obamacare.
President Trump issued an ultimatum on Thursday to recalcitrant Republicans to fall in line behind a broad health insurance overhaul or see their opportunity to repeal the Affordable Care Act vanish, demanding a Friday vote on a bill that appeared to lack a majority to pass.
So Trump is now giving Republicans an ultimatum, pass my bill today, or ELSE.
Well there he was in Nashville yesterday, surrounded by his faithful supporters, and bellowing like a beast.
Giving them what they wanted.
Another chance to chant "lock her up" four months after the election.
For they are beasts like him.
Ever since he accused Barack Obama of tapping his phone, Donald Trump has been trying to behave himself.
He has toned down his compulsive tweeting. He hasn't made any other outrageous statements.
He's trying to reassure Americans, and the rest of the world, that he's not having a nervous breakdown. And that he can be trusted with the nuclear button.
But sadly for him, this tweet can only have made even more people wonder about his mental state.
It's a frightening and truly disturbing sight. The Republicans in the House of Representatives threatening to shut down the American government. Again.
With one vote on Friday, the Republican-led House launched the latest spending battle in Congress -- one that could bring a government shutdown in less than two weeks.
By a 230-189 tally almost strictly on party lines, the House passed a short-term government spending plan that would eliminate all funding for Obamacare.
Just to try to kill a bill that would provide millions of Americans with health care they otherwise couldn't afford.
