It’s ironic that Trump is receiving his government subsidized healthcare while MAGA shuts down our country to take away healthcare from millions. Got email this week that my plan thru NY State of Health will end next July. As a freelancer ACA was a blessing these last 15 years.

Trump: "I also did a cognitive exam. Which is always very risky because if I didn't do well, you'd be the first to be blaring it and I had a perfect score. And one of the doctors said he's almost never seen a perfect score. I had a perfect score. That made me well good ... not the easiest test."

This is that "plenary" authority Stephen Miller was referring to in the now edited CNN interview. Arguing that the president's deployment of troops is unreviewable by the courts is arguing that his power is plenary.
