Official Trump: Dems favorability down to 31%! All time low! Sad!

I walked away from last night terrified in every other regard, but pleasantly surprised that he didn't make fun of McCain's surgery scar.
 
 
 
Heard the Cavs and the entire city of Cleveland showed up in Phoenix last night. Pretty cool.
 
 
EXILES ON PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE: HOW JARED AND IVANKA WERE REPELLED BY WASHINGTON’S ELITE

Politics is new to Jared and Ivanka, but it isn’t just politics that they are navigating. They are in a new town that “punctures their self-esteem on a daily basis,” a New York friend of theirs told me. They know they can never have their New York life back as it existed before Donald Trump started his campaign, nor do they want to give up the power of their current positions in Washington. The future unfolding before them looks nothing like the future they may have imagined five years ago. Ivanka may be disingenuous when she says she “didn’t ask for this,” but she is right to say that she didn’t ask for this—that is, for the actual situation in which they find themselves: powerful, in a sense, and yet ineffectual; emotionally essential to Donald Trump, but lacking the skills to assist; impossible to fire and reluctant to leave; compromised ethically and perhaps legally; and facing reputational or familial harm no matter what they decide to do.

fucking snowflakes, neither of them have the qualifications to be in the WH anyway. life must be so damn hard when you start with a gold spoon in your ass.
 
When the first version of a health-care bill proposed to strip funding from Planned Parenthood, Ivanka’s surrogates reached out to the organization with an idea: stop offering abortions and the White House would advocate increased funding for Planned Parenthood clinics. Richards turned down the proposal. Then those same surrogates tried an end run, going around Richards and contacting Planned Parenthood board members. “It completely backfired,” said someone familiar with the effort.

Imagine being so confident in this idea that you would go over the head of PP and directly to its Board.
 
 
No better optics than pushing for tax cuts for the top 1% offset by a budget that drastically cuts all federal services required for emergency response, HHS, FEMA, Coast Guard etc... while hundreds of thousands have just lost everything to a disaster.
