This was the last day before the Trump Presidencys 100th day. And congress put in less than half a day because there is no trump agenda item alive in congress right now. There is no bill moving anywhere in congress now. No legislative vehicle that is a trump agenda item. We have never seen a 99th day like this for a president.

A lot of the voters i heard from today, they do cast this as a referendum on the president himself, on donald trump. Several republicans i talked to said, you know, god bless donald trump. I will say, this isnt necessarily trump country. Trump didnt win here by as much as tom price did, the congressman who was reelected in 2016 by a 20point margin. Trump won by 1. 5 points. At the same time, it does tell you potentially gives you a sense of the energy that the democrats have. Thats what it is going to take if they are actually going to try to make a dent in the Republican House majority in 2018. Ali . Encourage fo ....

The other guys who worked the harbor alongside him called Him Commodore as a way of teasing him. And it stuck. And then that kid who they mocked as the commodore grew up to amass one of the largest fortunes in american history. The kind of fortune that leaves a mark. In 1917 right next to the thenbrand new Grand Central station opposite vand built avenue, a huge new hotel went up with thousands of rooms. It was called the Commodore Hotel.
