At This Point In A Trump Deal..... [View all]

We have some idea of what to expect. The Health Care "fix" that the great deal maker Donald Trump has organized has reached it's predictable point of failure. Who could have foreseen this? Like a failed casino, a bad real estate deal, Trump University, Trump Airlines, Trump Steaks, Trump anything, the con has reached its end stage. This is the point where Trump looks for a bail out. When he can't attract any more suckers, can't extract any more tax breaks or subsidies, can't find someone who needs to launder some ill-gotten funds, it's the point where Trump usually squirrels away all available cash, screws every small contractor he can and declares bankruptcy. We've seen this movie before. Where oh where will this go from here? You know Trump's instincts are to screw everyone he can to save his own ass. It's the defining characteristic of the "Art of the Deal". Trump has been down this road many times before, only never in a position like President. This time WE will not doubt be the collateral damage. What will be the fallout from this latest Trump failure? Who knows. It's not like there isn't some kind of road map to predict his behavior.
