    I was just looking for the Graham-Cassidy bill out of curiosity when I found this one under related bills:

    https://www.congress.gov/bill/115th-...bill/1150/text

    Tanning Tax Repeal Act of 2017
    Looks like some Republicans are worried about the continuity of the president's orangeness.

    Better deals are popping up everywhere!
    Despite little evidence but much innuendo, Trump wishes to cancel the Iran deal for non-compliance.
    So without evidence, without consultation and pretty much without a clue, Trump is making mouth sounds about ditching the deal:

    Rest assured, this will be handled by the best people

    Football is my hobby and this bum is sticking his nose in it.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    To kneel or not to kneel
    That is the question...

    They should all kneel. No one should give in to threats.

    They'll start discarding the anthem tradition is my guess.

    What's your team anyhow, GB Packers for me!

    The POTUS should have too many real priorities to worry about players kneeling or not for the National Anthem. People can do all sorts of disrespectful things in protest and it is their absolute right to, celebrities and athletes are not excluded. Perhaps when his 'house' is running in proper order he can start sticking his nose in unessential business, right now it's damn annoying.

    Four stage strategy from Yes, Minister:
    Stage one we say nothing is going to happen.
    Stage two, we say something may be about to happen, but we should do nothing about it.
    Stage three, we say that maybe we should do something about it, but there's nothing we can do.
    Stage four, we say maybe there was something we could have done, but it's too late now.

    To win the Worse President award, he needs to be seen to be doing something. Because if he did absolutely nothing, it wouldn't be the worst.

    Oh come on! He walks and talks and combs his hair. It should be enough.

    The mayor of San Juan might disagree with you:

    Slow response, inadequate response; just imagine how it would look with absolutely No response.

    Tax cuts for everyone!
    Of course the amount of the benefit might depend on your income, but it will be beautiful for all:

    The administration insists middle-class families are the big winners, to bad no independent analysis backs them up.
