We’ll leave aside the scandal that may bring down the whole sorry edifice of the Trump administration. After an endless series of nonexistent Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton “scandals,” we have an actual one. One that has the eye-catching word “treason” in it. Russia intervened in our election by breaking into Democratic Party computers, and now all that’s left is to determine whether people in the Trump campaign colluded with them in private, or only publicly .

We’ll leave that aside to look at the more immediate “winning” that’s going on with Obamacare approval. Trump, the greatest negotiator on God’s soon-no-longer-green Earth has been showing us his unmatched ability at not delivering on his promises of insurance for everybody, great insurance at low prices. Yes, he has gathered his now-supreme Republicans and with his unmatched negotiating prowess has hammered out maybe the worst piece of legislation in American history. Win! It would dis-insure tens of millions of people. Win! It has the support of a grand total of 17 percent of the American people. Win! And Trump has been using his unflagging negotiating skills this week to oversee the bill getting worse and worse. Win! And yesterday he issued an ultimatum that a vote must be taken. If the vote goes one way, he says he’ll stick with Obamacare. Somehow a win! If it goes the other way, you get a health-care bill that is worse in just about every way, fewer people covered, with coverage that doesn’t cover any actual medical conditions. Win!
