AKA the ones with great hair and nice suits who sounded great on the Sunday shows and knew how to lose gracefully and understood their place as the second rung on the ladder as voices of minor opposition but were great at going along to get along.
Those good ole days need to be over.

He absolutely squeaked one out
He campaigned like crazy in the Blue Wall StatesâŠHillary didnâtâŠand Trump still won those states by a combined 90,000 votes.
Thatâs 0.06% of the total popular vote.
Thatâs 0.6% of the combined popular vote of those three states.
Thatâs the definition of squeaking it out,
And it is absolutely not proportional to the size of Trump campaign events to those of Hillaryâs.

Câmon man. Damn right it was an insult. And apparently you are too indoctrinated to realize he insulted you too. Saying people are âclinging to guns and religionâ arrogantly implies that they donât have a right to either. That statement demonstrated his disdain not only for the Constitution, but for the people whose Rights he sees as frivolous or outdated. You should have been outraged too.

Trump reduced the individual mandate, which was the unConstitutional part, to $0.
Not a great solution, but what could be done.
This is a stream of consciousness thread.
Since the mandate was unenforceable, most people simply lied on their 1040 to avoid paying the penalty. To my knowledge, the IRS never came after anyone for doing that, but technically, we© were all in violation of Federal law. Repealing the mandate didnât fix the ACA, but it was absolutely the right thing to do.

Nemesis:
My biggest criticism of the ACA is that it was health insurance company reform. It did nothing to address the underlying cost of medical services.
The good news is that price transparency is becoming easier and more providers are listing the costs, especially with diagnostic testing. This is helping individuals make informed choices when they have access to costâs and quality of care information.
We have a long way to go but its a start.
Complying with the reporting requirements of the ACA is a major contributor to the cost of providing health care.
A young woman came forward and said biden sexually assaulted her. The left called her names and talked about what trash she was. As well as calling her a liar. Seems the left are not really honest as well. And will vote for a man that assaults women.
Bill Clinton was accused of sexual assault several times. He even lost his law license because he lied about an affair he had while President. The left called the women who accused him liars and just out to ruin his good name. While they still supported him and his wife hillary who called the women he assaulted names. Seems like the left are not very honest.
The left are nothing but hypocrites.

Careful what you wish for.

That works in Bidenâs favor. He has already been judged to be mentally unfit to be tried.

Repealing the individual mandate made ACA worse. Insurance is cheaper when more healthy people pay into it than unhealthy.

Your opinion is noted. Forcing healthy people to buy health insurance to pay for the treatment of unhealthy people is absurd.

Maybe you should do a little research on the woman. Because after finding out things she has said I did not find her very credible.
Are you new to how insurance works? Insurance only works when you have healthy/safe people paying premiums that cover unhealthy/risky people
Iâm forced to buy car insurance⊠even though Iâve never been in an accident or had a moving violation.
That has always been the standard by the citizens for all presidents.
PurpnGold:
That is not true. I long for the days of the pre Trump conservatives⊠we need balance politically in this country. However the MAGA republicans are too large of a contingent with too little to offer. The rights fringe is way larger than the left fringe and thatâs the problem.
Let go of Trump and we can begin to go back to healthier political debates over policy and not over whoâs owning the libz the best.
Doesnât even make sense. If we hated them, why would we come here?

Listen to yourself.
The problem is those not paying into it.
