With his approval numbers dropping, Trump takes credit for Obamacare

In a surprising turn of events, President Donald Trump, with his approval rating at a measly 34%, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) at a record high approval rating of 55%, and Congressional Republicans' seeming inability to pass an ACA replacement bill, decided to take full credit for Obamacare this morning in a series of tweets:

Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 1h

"ObamaCare here to stay, only better. I'm calling it Better Than ObamaCare (BTO)"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 49m

"I didn't change anything to ObamaCare but Better Than ObamaCare is better than ObamaCare, bigly!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 36m

"I wasn't pres. when ObamaCare, I mean Better Than ObamaCare was signed, but 20 meelion more people have insurance now bc of me, believe me!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 27m

"Better Than ObamaCare will be better than ObamaCare in every possible way. I gairentee it!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 11m

"With BTO, I was just takin' care of business, people!"


Donald J. Trump‏ @realDonaldTrump 2m

"BTO! Better Than Obamacare! MAGA! Make America Gullible Again!"


Ironically enough, while Democrats continue to push for legislation to fix the healthcare law, Republicans, who had tried to repeal it over 60 times, are blocking such motions.

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Trump's Lie Tally at the CNN Debate

1) "We had the greatest economy in the history of our country. We had never done so well. Every – everybody was amazed by it. Other countries were copying us." 2) "But the thing we never got the credit for, and we should have, is getting us out of that COVID mess." 3) "The only jobs he created are for illegal immigrants and bounceback jobs; they’re bounced back from the COVID." 4) "Not going to drive them higher. It’s just going to cause countries that have been ripping us off for years, like China and many others, in all fairness to China – it’s going to just force them to pay us a lot of money, reduce our deficit tremendously, and give us a lot of power for other things." (tariffs) 5) "He also said he inherited 9 percent inflation." 6) "No, he inherited almost no inflation and it stayed that way for 14 months. And then it blew up under his leadership, because they spent money like a bunch of people that didn’t know what t...
