What was Trump’s approval when Romney voted to remove him during impeachment? The Dems only need to peel off a few GOPers to have complete control of Congress and remove POTUS from the WH.

Health care proposal before the end of the month and new immigration proposal shortly after that.

The immigration plan in Sept gives me agita when today he is at 51% approval rating.

Right now his approval is 96% with GOP voters.
If the party wants to dump him after it appears he’s been re-elected it will be political suicide.

We’re talking about a lame duck Congress. How is Alexander, who is retiring, going to commit “political suicide” then? He hates Trump and doesn’t care. These guys are dreaming about pulling a Nixon on Trump. Guaranteed.

That is not the way it works.

The generic manufacturer to pharmacy sell price is set by the Government. Different sell price in each Province, and different sell price for Gov and non-gov product.

The manufacturer’s compete to be #1 source for each pharmacy.
The manufacturer sends a rebate back to the pharmacy .

Therefore, the “sell” price could be $100.00 per pill, with a $80.00 rebate going back to the pharmacy.

The pharmacy pays $20.00 per pill
If the manufacture cost is $5, Manufacturer gross margin is $15.
Folks buy pill for $100

Did anyone catch the “tik tok” sale issue?

President Trump stated the sale price is negotiated between China and the eventual buyer.
And, since most of the Tik Tok business is in the US, the US Treasury will be taking a very large percentage of the sale price.
After all, without the US market, Tik Tok is nothing.

Q: Did President Trump just vaporize the value of all social media companies??

Thanks for the correction on the details. It seems it would confirm the impression that Canada would not be footing a bill subsidizing America then if America bulk purchased from Canadian pharmacies.

"It’s obvious the Dem game plan is to prevent a result on election night"

They want wiggle room. In a close race, a judge or administrator would change the rules until the right person is ahead.

Hopefully, the “fall” is thru the gallow’s trap door....in public, with no hood, no last cigarette or no last meal.
Yeah, he’s a real piece of work....PIAPS-loving POS.

Disclaimer- the following statements are for logical discussion only; I am not actually asserting either of them

1. Your interpretation of Trump’s tweet is stupid.
2 You are stupid.

Do you not see the difference between statement 1 and statement 2 above? Statement 1 is NOT offensive or insulting to you personally. Instead it’s a criticism of the posts you have made. Statement 2 is indeed offensive and personally insulting.

I believe Trump’s tweet to be more in line with statement 1. He wasn’t calling Birx herself pathetic as you claimed. He was labeling her response to Pelosi pathetic. I’ll admit, Trump’s tweets often are not as clearly written as they could be, so there may be some room for interpretation, but I certainly took it to mean that he considered the response pathetic, not Birx.

“What was Trump’s approval when Romney voted to remove him during impeachment? The Dems only need to peel off a few GOPers to have complete control of Congress and remove POTUS from the WH.”

In case you don NOT understand the Constitution, it takes 67 Senators (currently) to remove a President via impeachment.

SIXTY-SEVEN

Not gonna happen.

Sheeshe!

Murkowski
Collins
Gardner
Alexander (retiring)
Romney
Lee (Little Romney)
Graham
Sasse
Rubio
Roberts (retiring)
Enzi (retiring)
Burr (retiring in 2022)
Tillis (might lose)
Shelby (86 and likely not running again)

There’s 14 off the top of my head. You want more?

This is why so many of us say we love Trump, his policies but really wish he would stop the Tweets, I am all about getting him reelected. IMHO he would be up 10 points if he didn’t use Twitter-no impulse control when he tweets

This “pathetic” tweet wasn’t that bad , the “when the looting starts we start shooting” cost him (cuz it aligned him with bad cop Chauvin -he should know media would play him that way) the drop was to the day of that tweet and overnight 5-10 points dropped in betting odds (more predictive than polls) was leading Biden prior. His tweet suggesting or questing postponing the election was another example -just stupid cuz election went on even during Civil War. Yes mail in will be fraud-start figuring out how to use it to our advantage.

So vote Trump but if anyone can get him to stop using Twitter you will have helped him win reelection

Oh, please! President Trump knows exactly how to expose the weak minded.. majority of American citizens are not offended by ‘truth’. Democrats own Minneapolis. Even down to the governors daughter tweeting out to the looters the national guard would NOT be coming.
