Trump is dismantling Obamacare with
the stroke of his pen. The Libs are going
crazy today, it's delightful.

If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose.

Just another selfish, idiotic move by a man motivated primary by his own greed.

Here is an article describing how the decision hurts everyone:

Quote:
"This is absolutely lose-lose," said Marianne Udow, director of the Center for Healthcare Research and Transformation, an Ann Arbor-based think tank. "In the end, it's going to cost all of us more. The Congressional Budget Office already has estimated that ending cost-sharing reduction payments will cost taxpayers $6 billion" a year.


anyone have a link to an article showing who this helps, and how much?

About Trump decertifying Iran, if I lived anywhere near South Korea, I'd be looking to move outside the likely fallout area.

It is delightful to see all the middle class Trump voters who will have to pay 20% more for health insurance next year.

Those dumbass suckers deserve to suffer!

At least a couple of republicans have shown responsibility by not enacting Trump's irresponsible ideas, but he himself takes no blame for getting nothing done.

But - if you listen to the Trumpsters, he's getting tons of stuff done!

Trump strikes me as the kind of moronic boss who thinks ordering employees to "get it done" amounts to profound leadership. You know, the type who won´t lift a finger to help, will answer no questions, will offer no guidance. But when you deliver, will complain it's all wrong.

We saw this in the various ACA repeal and replace attempts. Did he even know what any of the bills before the Senate contained? He certainly did not crisscross the country selling them, or met with senators of both parties to persuade or cajole them into voting for them.

That was also his great plan to defeat ISIS - ordering his generals to come up with a plan to defeat ISIS.

That hasn't seen the light of day, either.
