This next week is going to be really painful. If Trump wins… Good God, what are we doing?
“She wants to put the government totally in charge of health care in America,” Trump said.
Ok. Ok. You’ve convinced me. I’ll vote for her.
Nationwide insurance market is the worst idea ever. It will be a race to the bottom to see ho can offer the least amount possible for the lowest price. People will not get coverage.
If Trump wins it’s at the very least the beginning of the end of America.
My question is, why would the MSM – CNN, NYT, NBC etc – bolster and help this fascist goon so much??? He will shred the first amendment and go after them. Disturbing.
Donald Trump ominously predicted that a failure to “repeal and replace” Obamacare “will destroy American health care forever”…
“Just look at all those people drowning in affordable government health care all over the rest of the civilized world. Oh the humanity!” he went on.
Trump: “Obamacare will destroy American health care forever.”
Ronald Reagan called.
He wants his 1961 Medicare speech back.
Trump spent far less time outlining his own health care plan, offering up a few sentences about providing health savings accounts and a nationwide insurance market, as well as allowing states to manage Medicaid dollars.
“It will be a much better health care at a much less cost,” Trump assured the Valley Forge audience.
Only six minutes of Trump’s brief, 21-minute address, billed as a speech on Obamacare, actually touched on healthcare legislation.
Only six minutes? Was he unable, for once, to come loaded with hyperbole?
Becuz the emails were more bright and shiny for him?
Look, the 40 hour work week, the end of child labor, unions, safety regulations—these socialist changes already crippled the US 100 years ago. Since 1919, the economy has grown at an average rate slower than any time since 1853. It’s time for a change. Vote Trump!
Repeal and replace? With what? Do you have a plan, or is this just more of the bullspit from the past 7 years?
Trump’s rhetoric is so over the top he has become a cartoon character to me. I take him about that serious. I just tune him out or turn him off. I can’t wait for this election to be over.
And I tell anyone who thinks repealing the ACA is a good idea, pre existing conditions will return and if you’ve got one it will be a slow painful, impoverished death
Trump is like a CGI villain—especially with that hair, and Marvel Orange #2 shade of villain face.
If you wanna see insurance premiums of skyward just repeal the ACA. And 40% of those now covered would lose their coverage instantly.
Just sayin’.
I really dislike trump.
‘Critical’ thinking is not a ‘thing’ in the GOP, is it? ‘American Health Care’ will be the same no matter what. They got everything they wanted in either private or government health care. The only people who appear to be getting screwed is those who DIDN’T have it before, have it now and their premiums are going up. Of course, they would have ANYWAY if they have been able to buy private BEFORE the ACA. Or are those millenials that chose to pay the fine going to ‘destroy’ it? Everything else remained the same.
I recently saw HO called an “orange shitgibbon” by a Brit. poster here at TPM. I thought it an adept turn of phrase.
Only six minutes of Trump’s brief, 21-minute address, billed as a speech on Obamacare, actually touched on healthcare legislation. … Trump pivoted early on to his “plan for other things” including bringing back manufacturing jobs, sealing off U.S. borders and revitalizing “the inner cities.”

In fairness…
Doctors care about helping the sick…
HOSPITAL ADMINISTRATORS care only about money… (the fact that they tend to be doctors who have long ago stopped seeing patients because hospital administration pays better, is a fact not to be overlooked)
The Republican nominee said that if elected, he would convene a special session of Congress to undo President Barack Obama’s signature healthcare legislation “very, very quickly.”
Retake Civics 101 moron.
