âI think that it syncs up with what our members have been saying. We think that everybody ought to have access to affordable health care âŚâ
Anybody remember them saying that? Yeah, me neither.

By Wednesday, it had appeared that Trump had walked back the promise in an interview with Axios,where he said, âWe want people taken care of,â and that, "There will be nobody dying on the streets in a Trump administration."

OH yeah? I am saving that comment for later use Donnie.
Unless he shoots that person on Fifth Avenue to prove his popularity.
Isnât fun to see them all, the PEOTUS and Republican members of Congress, all try to fit in the driverâs seat?
And it seems to me with the above two groups theyâve put the Republican House members in a dog crate strapped to the roof of the stations wagon.
What kind of shot is he?
The Rethugs are all sectioned in Larry Craigâs bathroom but no one understands the toe tapsâŚ
Trump: âWe want people taken care of,â and that, âThere will be nobody dying on the streets in a Trump administration.â
He went on to say, âWe will arrest those uninsured sick people for loitering in the street and let them die in a corporate-owned, taxpayer-funded jail.â
You guys have never even spoken to each other, have you?
It wonât happen, but I think Iâd probably laugh myself unconscious if he comes out proposing single-payer. It would be just the kind of WTF batshit craziness turn of events that would be perfectâŚlike mainlining crystallized freebased schadenfreude.
I have two imaginary friends. Imaginary Friend A, has an imaginary replacement plan for the ACA which he has never reduced to writing so that anyone can see what the plan entails or whether it is good or bad or whether it needs a lot of work or a little work. Imaginary Friend B also has an imaginary replacement plan for the ACA which no one has ever seen.
âIdeally, our goal should be to expand the number of people who are insured by giving more choices to them, rather than the one-size-fits-all approach of Obamacare,â
Thereâll be BIG plans for daddy patients, MIDDLE-SIZED plans for mama patients, and for the littlest patients, thereâll be plans that are JUST RIGHT.
Seriously, you can see this coming. Thereâll be plans for every income level, from gold-plated congressional plans, all the way down to CrapCare plans that cover and pay for next-to-nothing, but are very affordable for nearly everyone. And I was assured by a phone salesman that all doctors and hospitals accept these plans - and I suppose they would, as long as they could bill for and collect on the balance.

I do! I want this one:

@darrtownââOH yeah? I am saving that comment for later use Donnie.â Great idea!
âAccessâ meaning that if you have the money, you can buy it. âAffordableâ meaning if you donât have much money, you can buy a shitty âcatastrophicâ policy that pays nothing towards most health costs, only kicks in when youâre hospitalized, has a huge deductible, and low annual and lifetime limits on what the insurer has to pay out. But hey, at least the hospital gets a little something, while you go bankrupt.
It only works if it is actually made of tin. Aluminum foil does not work.
Personally, all these promises being made by Republicans under oath in front of these various and sundry Senate Committees donât mean squat. If Trump wants to do something different or change his âmindâ 3 times between now and the time the bills get passed and the regs written he will do it and wonât give the credibility of his underlings a second thought.
Remember the good ole days when we classified Republicans as either Tea-Party or RINO (with a sub-genre of âCountry Clubâ)? We now have a new classification. We now have the Banana-Republic-Republicans that have mostly replaced the tea-party fakers and many of the RINOs. Aside from their spaghetti like spine the other identifying trait is their Trump Boot Licking behavior. But, I may be confusing that brown shoe polish on their nose for something else.
@careysubâI had not thought of that. Best get some tin cans and tin snips out.
The GOP Quislings will be covering Trumpâs sickness for a long time.
