Opinions P.M.
 
 
A president without an administration
Trump isn't actually running anything.
The Wisconsin lesson: Voters will reward Republicans if they do what they promised
With majorities in both houses of Congress, the GOP should be pushing through its reform agenda, not engaging in internecine struggles.
 
Trump and Ryan fear the GOP faces a ‘bloodbath’ in 2018. They may be right.
If they fail to repeal Obamacare, it'll be bad. If they succeed, it'll be worse.
 
How Europe can stop Turkey’s political neurosis from spreading
Europe played nice with President Erdogan for too long. Now his polarizing politics have infected Europe.

To be continued.

An ongoing roundup of President Trump's record on civil liberties

Underwear and prison tattoos; eye drops and pedigreed cats; and a case about the dock of the bay.
 
Many states that voted for Trump would suffer under Trumpcare
Trump states get slammed.

Republicans’ ‘You can keep your doctor’ moment
The House and Trump seem not to care what's in the bill
 
Donald Trump’s deliberate corruption of reality-based governing
The attacks on the Congressional Budget Office need to be seen as only a part of a much bigger story.
