the fing liberals made the ENTIRE BULLSHIT STORY UP about Russia. Just entirely made it up. You, CJ, all of you. Made it up and jumped onboard.* Simple minded people fall for dopey stuff that they WANT to believe is true. That's why the word GRUBER caught on as a descriptive noun and verb so fast. It described the mindless idiots perfectly.

So Trump and Republicans are going to cut $800 billion out of Medicaid and give $803 billion to the very rich. That $800 billion not only would ensure millions of people and give them better health and prevent many people from dying, they would create tens of thousands of jobs, maybe millions of jobs. When you give the $800 billion to the very rich, there is no way of guaranteeing that that is going to translate into jobs in the states that are losing the Medicaid so that they can get a job to get the healthcare. That is Ruben Goldberg nuts.

Trump supporter credits Trumpcare — which hasn’t taken effect — for dramatically lower health costs Travis Gettys TRAVIS GETTYS 17 MAR 2017 AT 07:48 ET rawstory.com A Tennessee woman who backs President Donald Trump credits God and the Republican health care bill — which hasn’t been voted into law — for her family’s dramatically lower insurance costs. Charla McComic’s son recently lost his job, and his health-insurance premium dropped from $567 per month to $88, which she described as “a blessing from God” and a gift from the new president, reported the Washington Post. The 52-year-old former first-grade teacher thinks the change is due to tax credits that would be offered under the so-called “Trumpcare” law, if and when it’s approved by Congress and signed into law — but the price drop is actually a feature of former President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act. Workers who lose their jobs and employer-based health care coverage may enroll in Obamacare, which offers coverage based on income or possibly Medicaid for those with little or no income — like McComic’s son. McComic, who attended Trump’s rally this week in Nashville with four family members, told the Post she’s not worried that her 33-year-old son or 3-year-old granddaughter will lose their Medicaid coverage under the GOP plan. “So far, everything’s been positive, from what I can tell,” she told the newspaper. “I just hope that more and more people and children get covered under this new health-care plan.” McComic, who campaigned for Trump with some relatives by forming a motorcade and driving through their hometown shouting his name, said she’s never trusted a president as much as the real estate developer and former reality TV star. “We said: ‘Who else would we do this for, besides Trump?’” McComic said. “We agreed on the Lord. We would stand here for the Lord, but that’s about it.”
