TRUMP, yesterday: 'The Flores decision is a disaster, I have to tell you. Judge Flores, whoever you may be, that decision is a disaster for our country, a disaster.' THE FACTS: There's no Judge Flores involved.

1 / 7In this April 4, 2019, photo, President Donald Trump speaks during the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council meeting in the Cabinet Room of the White House in Washington.

"There is no very substantive change," said Mexico's foreign secretary, Marcelo Ebrard."I don't know what was referring to." But Trump soon found that the party in Congress had no appetite for yet another attempt to replace President Barack Obama's health law in the near future — nor does it have a plan.

The Obama health law requires insurers to take all applicants, regardless of medical history, and patients with health problems pay the same standard premiums as healthy ones. It also requires standard benefits such as pregnancy, maternity and newborn care and mental health treatment. The trade-off was that the law also mandated that everyone have insurance, including healthy people, whose premiums helped insurers cover the costs of the very sick.

"The American Cancer Society is unaware of any credible evidence linking the noise from windmills to cancer," the organization said after Trump's latest remarks. THE FACTS: The money Puerto Rico has received for hurricane relief is nowhere close to $91 billion. Nor is the amount provided greater than for any other hurricane that has struck the U.S.

Gidley, speaking on MSNBC, called the notion that Trump was referring to Puerto Ricans as noncitizens"absolutely ridiculous." But in the same interview Gidley had referred to Puerto Rico as"that country." When pressed about his wording, Gidley said it was a mistake and he meant to say"territory.

More than 1 million young voters cast a ballot in the 2018 midterm election, a 234% increase from the 2014 midterm elections, according to voting data from the Texas secretary of state's office.

Oranges to origins

Judge Flores knew Trump's father before he (Fred Trump) came to the US from Germany.

Judge Flores. WTF are you.

Further proof of the degradation of Trump's feeble mind. 2020 can't come quick enough. Get this loser out of the WhiteHouse and help return the world to it's once great prominence.
