After yesterday's spectacular crash and burn of TrumpCare, done in as it was by his own ultra- radical Republican Party, neo- fascist loser Donald "Rump" Trump says he's moving on to "tax reform" (i.e., how can we get corporations and the wealthy to pay less in taxes while sticking to the middle class and poor?). But before we move on to the next opportunity for epic failure, let's see some of the post mortems on TrumpCare:

And finally, enjoy the derp with a helping of schadenfreude!
