Whell, it seems you, Trump and Ryan are the only people left supporting TrumpCare. Congratulations on the company you keep.
All I'm doing is asking a question. I've voiced no support for it. But you're consistent attempts to put words in other folks mouths is still laughable.

All you guys are doing is posting a same rehash of the Tax Policy Center study. Nothing new here.

And no, Trump and Ryan aren't the only ones support the bill. A number of organizations have voiced their support for it. And there are many out there who would support it with tweaks.

Get your facts straight, please.

I would support single payer/ full participation not-for-profit basic health care. There are plenty of successful working system models to adapt to U. S. requirements.

Actions speak louder than words. You had the chance to do just that in the Democratic primary, but you opted instead to vote for Hillary Clinton over Bernie.

Get your facts straight, please.
Heritage, Tea Party, Club for Growth, Americans for Prosperity, Freedom Works, House Freedom Caucus, Cato, Democrats, GOP senators from Medicare expansion states, AARP (retirees), AMA(doctors), AHA(hospitals), ANA(nurses), Breitbart, National Review, and even your heartthrob Ann Coulter are against it.

Who you got?

Yes, and I would suggest a different analogy would be more appropriate.

One from Nazi occupied France in WW2.

In that one the Nazi's would be the Republicans

The collaborators would be the Democrats.

And we, of the true left, would be the Resistance fighters.

As if anyone can be 'of the true left' and love Trump.

You're not the resistance, you're one of the Nazis. You just make funny rationalizations about it.

If Trump says, 'I need my people to turn out with their guns now,' you'd be there, right?

No.

I just say that for show.

I'm looking to sit on the sidelines and root for heavy casualties on both sides.

Then when it's over us so************************ts can rise like a phoenix from the ashes.
