Good. We already pay more for medicine than the rest of the civilized world. We need to pay still more. It’s what people voted for! And so what if it takes 10, 15 years to build new factories here! It’s all about the “period of transition!”

Trump: I had the most successful four year period in the history of this country. I think we’re going to blow it away this time…. But there is a little bit of a transition. And we’re going to have that transition. And it’s not much of a transition. pic.twitter.com/3REBpipfX2

Isn’t that what Mao Zedong said?

Reporter: If that was wrong, why are you considering changing the tax status of Harvard?

Trump: Because I think Harvard is a disgrace… they are obviously anti-semitic.. Tax exempt status is a privilege pic.twitter.com/O8ksdv3yrT

Not one bestowed by the Executive. Besides, I’ve seen your DOJ’s work product:

TRUMP: I would think over the next three or four weeks pic.twitter.com/qvA9S3yt9i

Narrator: Trump renegotiated NAFTA in his first term. It took almost 2 years. Now he’s torn it up, along with trade agreements with China. He’s not putting Humpty Dumpty together again. He has no idea how. Also: three or four year? A million years? How is he telling time? I think maybe his clock has stopped.

It is literally a federal crime punishable by up to five years in prison for the President, VP, or any senior White House employee, to "request, directly or indirectly, any officer or employee of the IRS to conduct ... an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer." https://t.co/uixEuuSwWP pic.twitter.com/iduYayPjr6

I’m sure it’s part of Trump’s official duties. Right, Chief Justice Roberts?
