We long past the point, well before this POS got into the White House, of these people being fooled by all of this. In their perverse way, they get off on this period

their craven, impoverished level. Instead of raising all boats, they are all about sinking all boats because their boats are already sunken. It’s just another form of greed. And then there are the racists and Aynn Rand-ista’s who can’t tolerate the the thought of people of color or “lazy” people being equal to them. They are a sick, mean-spirited, selfish cluster of Satan governed domineers.

Thinking of a word for beyond absurd, plain old evil is what came to mind. Our entire people want and desperately need coverage for preexisting conditions, a matter of life and death.

If anything gets all those idiots who didn't vote Democrat to do the right thing, this'll be it. Children in cages don't seem to come close.

5. trump does the opposite of these claims
Tue Jan 14, 2020, 06:33 AM
Jan 2020

Like he did in the 2016 election when he knew republicans (Rubio) included a provision into the 2015 omnibus bill that caused the ACA costs to skyrocket upward while claiming the plan was a failure, telling everyone it was self destructing was why their costs shot up and the Democrats fault , a total lie. They also had court proceeding attempting to take away many pre-existing conditions covered, and de-funding it, all while claiming the opposite , they were for it. trump also claimed he'd lower drug costs then took millions of dollars from big pharma with campaign contributions, or bribes to do nothing to lower the prescription drug costs for the American people. The also want to destroy Social Security and Medicare if he gets re-elected. Don't listen to what he claims, look at what he does, its rarely the same. remember he claimed he'd have a better lower costing plan covering everyone with lower deductibles, and premiums, and actually he's claimed this two different times. People trusting this professional con man , and serial liar I guess have no problem losing all health care,and Social Security benefits they'll strip out while shooting their costs upward to undermine it.

a pre-existing condition actually is. They’re also going after life time maxs, another matter that isn’t highly discussed. Both can be devastating!

A lot of people are not fooled either. A lot of people just aren't paying attention because it doesn't affect them directly or they are tired or they are just to busy with life and trying to survive.

The thing is that unless the House and the Democratic Candidates start making A LOT more noise about this and how they plan to fix the problem with healthcare in the US, this will just fade into all the other lies that Trump tells.

It's ok to have different ideas of -how-; just hammer the message home that Democrats will fix it while Republicans are continually trying to gut it.
