Senator John McCain pretty much torpedoed the latest last ditch attempt to repeal Obamacare. He said he would not support the current effort at repeal. He said he disapproved of the procedure used to bring it to the floor. Didn't say a word about the contents. This will probably cost the Republicans control of Congress in the 2018 by election. Given majorities in both houses of Congress, and the presidency, the stupid party is unable to get their members to vote out Obamacare. We voters are noticing. We will remember in November.
And then Trump disses some pro football players for remaining seated while the national anthem is sung. Wow. TV has been talking about nothing else since. The NFL and it's commissioner have come out four square for letting the players do what ever they like. Most of us citizens recognize the player's rights of free speech, but free speech doesn't mean we have like what they say. We would happily boil those football players in oil for what they have said. But, this red meat issue, abet low importance issue, has completely overshadowed the really important issue of repealing Obamacare which is impoverishing every one, and wrecking the economy as a side effect.
