Don’t think he has met with Rahm.>>> Zeke is the Medical ethicist that works here at Penn. he helped write the bill. maybe the death panels part. He wants to curtail the use of avastin which saved my girlfriends life.

Emmanuel is an uninvited guest to the party. Please.>>> he’s not. it’s his bro zeke. who helped write the bill. maybe trump can use him to help dismantle it. the demolition guys use the architectural drawings to know where to place the charges when they blow up a building. maybe trump is doing that now.

Fake news, everyone take a baby aspirin and read about the lack of a bona fide source.

Monday's meeting was Emanuel's third in-person conversation on health policy with Trump since the November election. According to one person familiar with the session, who spoke on condition of anonymity about the private discussion, it took place in the Oval Office and lasted about 40 minutes.

Isn’t Emanuel about 75? Time to step off, per his own pronouncement.

Because he knows where all the Obamacare bodies lie. Thus how much needs to be done to dismantle it and root it out at its source.
Like Michael Corleone said, "keep your friends close and your enemies closer"

You sure it isn’t “Mr. Trump playing 3-D chess” or something? ;-) Sometimes if it quacks like a duck it is a duck! Occam’s razor!

Didn’t know that there was a “Psychopaths For Trump” organization.

Now we know.

The same Zeke Emanuel who said there’s no reason for anyone to live past 75. Well...Batsh!t Bernie Sanders will be 75. And using this standard Jane Fonda, Pelosi, McLame, Charles Rangell, Jimmah Carter are well past their expiration dates. Perhaps they should set an example and “put their affairs in order”.

Ezekiel Emanuel met with President Donald Trump at the White House

So, did the President actually "seek his advice"...or just beat the crap out of him?

With liberals/Democrats among Trump’s closest advisors now in Jared and Ivanka Kushner and Gary Kohn, we shouldn’t be surprised.

You’re fooling yourself if, considering Trump’s closest and family advisors and the monstrosity of Obamacare 2.0 and taking advice from Emmanuel, you think Trump is trying to do anything other than save/further Obamacare on its path toward an inevitable nationalized (”socialized”) healthcare service, just under another name.
