A GLASS HALF-FULL TYPE OF GUY

Republican efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare nosedived last night, as two new senators announced that they would not vote for the bill — putting an end to the possibility that the Senate would even debate the matter. 

Trump was reportedly blindsided by the announcement, and tweeted out his frustration last night and this morning. But this afternoon, in front of the cameras, President Trump played off the massive failure, saying: "The vote would have been pretty close to, if you look at it, 48 to 4. That's a pretty impressive vote by any standard."

 

Obviously, Trump is completely erasing the number of Democratic votes in his statement, which actually puts the count to 48 to 52

Twitter was quick to roast Trump.
