Il Presidente Trumpo made more absolute pronouncements this morning from the presidential fount of all truth, his twitter account.
Apparently it’s “fake news” to report that “repeal and replace” isn’t doing too well:
Anybody (especially Fake News media) who thinks that Repeal & Replace of ObamaCare is dead does not know the love and strength in R Party!

Talks on Repealing and Replacing ObamaCare are, and have been, going on, and will continue until such time as a deal is hopefully struck.

Which is odd, because Trump literally said himself that he was moving on from repeal and replace to other policies so that Obamacare could collapse on its own. Did someone restart history this morning?
Then he demanded that the press cover THE REAL STORY IN ALL CAPS!!!
The real story turns out to be SURVEILLANCE and LEAKING! Find the leakers.

I’m pretty sure a Trumpy tweet in all caps has the force of an executive order, doesn’t it? And why is he demanding the press find the leakers? Doesn’t he have the world’s finest investigative services at his disposal? Apparently the FBI and the CIA aren’t good enough for Donnie, he demands Jake Tapper and Katy Tur get on the case as well, while ignoring any story that *might* put him in a bad light. Just like the founders intended! #MAGA!!!
