- Obamacare -> Trump must have concepts of a plan for health care
- Reagan fires air traffic controllers -> Trump must pretend to order ATCs "back to work" after the longest government shutdown, during which they were working without pay anyway
- GOP forces alternate naming of DCA to Reagan National Airport-> Trump must have stadium named after him
- Putin has gaudy gold-trimmed rooms -> Trump must trim White House in (faux) gold
- Kim Jong Un has military parades with rockets and goose-stepping -> Trump must have military parade (but doesn't get rockets and goose-stepping because military courageously slow-walks the request)
- Obama gets Nobel Peace Prize -> Trump must have Nobel Peace Prize; doesn't get it; see next step
- George W. Bush has "War on Terror" -> Trump must bomb boats and talk about a ground invasion of Venezuela (now that the Nobel is no longer in play)
> White House officials are furious with Bill Pulte, the Federal Housing Finance Agency director, who talked the president into suggesting a 50-year mortgage plan.
[..]
> On Saturday evening, Pulte arrived at President Donald Trump’s Palm Beach Golf Club with a roughly 3-by-5 posterboard in hand. A graphic of former President Franklin Roosevelt appeared below “30-year mortgage” and one of Trump below “50-year mortgage.” The headline was “Great American Presidents.”
You may remember Bill Pulte as a major figure in the Bed Bath and Beyond stock conspiracy theory. Quite how he ended up being given a real job is unclear.
Just throw it over to politifact that has a long term tracker, what are you guys just going to write a nothing article every 3 months and waste our time. Summarize at the end, we don't care anyway.
