Remember when Republicans whined for years about Obamacare, then gained total control and released a healthcare plan so bad John McCain famously voted it down, then they just gave the fuck up on it because Republicans just give the fuck up when things are too hard?

Turns out idiots can't govern.

Unless we're talking about two different events, it wasn't even a plan that he voted down, it was simply just a repeal of the ACA.

They have never had an actual plan.

Trump’s administration fucking up everything it touches isn’t a planned distraction, it’s what happens when you put a bunch of incompetents in charge based on what they can do for you and how sycophantic they are.

I agree, it’s as much a warning for us to keep hammering Congress to hold Trump and Bondi in Contempt of Congress.

Why wait till the midterms to impeach, when you can hold them in contempt now?

Everyday the “democrats” don’t dominate the headline and make the story about him being a pedophile protector he gets free media coverage for Iran, Greenland, ICE and can push his Insurrection Act plan further. The press and “opposition” needs to take control of the narrative. It’s been 10 years now.

I guess they’re still at the “concept of a plan” stage.

Yeah that's why I'm fascinated about what else it could be.

"More over the counter medicines"

Sorry your insurance only covers prescription medications. Go pay full price up at the front for that.

Emergency departments accept both Medicare and Medicaid. Are they going to have to have a huge wall of prices?

Can we expect more trashy “true crime“ on youtube, that really is about people with untreated mental health problems?
