Trumpcare is here Donald and, guess what, you own it ............. .
The reality is massive tax cuts for the rich paid for with massive increases in suffering and earlier death for the poor.
Let me tell you folks the Republicans are going to have a helluva time trying to put lipstick on this pig.
Here are Donald's promises:
"Obamacare. We're going to repeal it, we're going to replace it, get something great. Repeal it, replace it, get something great!"
"If you can't take care of your sick in the country, forget it, it's all over. I mean, it's no good. So I'm very liberal when it comes to healthcare. I believe in universal healthcare. I believe in whatever it takes to make people well and better."
"Everybody's got to be covered. "
"They can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything."
Trumpcare is obviously not yet the law of the land. There will be more chapters to the Trumpcare soap opera before this plays out. But, the Republicans have shown their hand and, as usual, it rewards the rich and fucks the poor. Billions in tax breaks for rich folks subsidized by millions of poor folks dumped off of medical insurance. Little wonder that Donald does not care for the handle: Trumpcare.
