I am done underestimating [Donald] Trump and his appeal.

There are no more slow weeks. I realized this about 3 years ago. Downtime in politics isn't a thing.

No one who has followed politics for the last decade thinking about August like quiet month for politics. There are no more quiet times or slow periods. None. Which, frankly, makes it a very good time to be a political writer.

I think Republicans have spent years promising their base that they would get rid of Obamacare the second they took total control. Now, they have it. So if they can't make it happen, I think it would undercut those years of promises as well as the idea that Donald Trump is the greatest deal maker in the world.

Being freaked out doesn't mean you can fix what you perceive to be the problem.
