Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.
So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?
Insurance is not healthcare. But we live in late stage capitalism, and without insurance there is no access to healthcare at all. Obamacare took care of some of the more egregious problems we were dealing with, but it was clearly not the final solution.
So who thinks that Trump, or indeed any Republican can be trusted to come up with anything better?
Is there any criticism of the corporate wing of the party that won’t be immediately met with a veiled (or not so veiled) accusation that the person doing the criticism is a Trump supporter?
Since I didn’t say that here, I can confidently say “yes.”
If you say so.
You can try to pick a fight if you want. Just don’t expect me to do more than roll my eyes at you and dismiss you as the child you’ve continued to be.
“If you say so” Is picking a fight now. Ok.
