There is only one reason Donald Trump … sorry, president Trump, wants to scrap ObamaCare. He wants to call it TrumpCare. I think PJ O’Rourke captured the essence of Trump’s victory when he wrote (in Parliament of Whores): "We want someone familiar and reassuring in the White House, someone like us. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if we secretly wanted to be president ourselves. What could be more familiar than that? And who’s more like us than we are? ‘Hey, the place really is oval. Cool desk. Where do they keep the button? Let’s send the helicopter out for Chinese’." James DrewVia e-mail
