You're a nitpicking nitwit. If you think it matters to any Trump supporters whether Mexico hands us an actual physical check in payment for the wall, you've been watching too many Saturday Night Live parodies. And if you think anyone cares whether the repeal/replace sequence is simultaneous or occurs with a slight time lag to get it right, you're even more delusional.Wait, so I'm nitpicking? The wall was his biggest campaign promise. It's kinda what he started his campaign on. So if he can't deliver on that promise of all the ones made, that's pretty bad. I actually don't watch SNL, but thanks. Maybe you've been watching Fox News too much. Guess what, Trump's supporters don't make up the nation. It's pass half the population when you look at how many people voted against him or voted third party. So you're saying it's ok for Trump to force all those voters to pay more in taxes to pay for a wall they didn't vote for. But when Obama who won the popular vote does something it's not ok? And I never thought Mexico would hand use a check because I knew they would never pay for a wall. And the idea of raising tariffs on them will only lead to them doing the same on use and a trade war. And if you think people are ok with repealing and not replacing quickly, you are leaving in a bubble. And guess what, a lot of those people on ACA are Trump voters who were told they would get a better version of it. That's why Trump didn't want to repeal and wait. He wanted Congress to repeal and immediately replace or wait. A slight lag isn't what they are looking at, they are talking about years. That's on top of the 6 years they've talked about repealing it. If they haven't had a plan in place in 6 years, why would 1-2 more years really make the difference? And as I said, I would have waited to criticize him when he was in office, if he wasn't out taking credit for things already. You can't have the praise without the criticism also. And to say people can't criticize him later because they did now is ridiculous. Anyone can call him out on his mistakes. And again, this convo isn't going to go anywhere. So comment, I'm done.
Sheesh, why can't you let the guy be sworn in before you start frothing and foaming and fulminating about him? Like all Presidents, Trump will inevitably make his share of mistakes. When that happens, people like you will have no standing or credibility to criticize him, because everyone knows you simply attack him reflexively whether he deserves it or not.
