Do politicians just live to piss off their own voter bases?

I wonder what would happened to the 54 million people on Obama care when it is finally overturned...


What do you mean, “people on Obamacare”? Obamacare is the Affordable Care Act…it’s not an insurance plan that people are “on”.


DP. People use the Health Insurance Marketplace to select an insurance plan. The Marketplace is part of the Affordable Care Act. The ACA included creating the Marketplace for people who don't have group health plan coverage. The law requires all plans to provide basic care and not deny for pre existing conditions.

"People on Obamacare" are the people who get health insurance from he Marketplace.

If ACA goes away, the people who use it for individual and family health insurance will lose their coverage. Before the ACA individual plans where very expensive, had limited coverage and could deny coverage for pre existing conditions. It would be a step backwards, but that's what the county voted for. Higher costs for less coverage must be okay.


Yes, I’m aware. But people who purchase coverage through the exchange are not “on Obamacare”. They are on whatever insurance plan they have purchased.


You are correct, but they have access to purchase that insurance plan with decent overage only because of the ACA/Obamacare.

I think most understand what people mean when they say "on Obamacare". Just like other brand names are used. Kleenex=facial tissue, etc.


Many people don’t even realize that the ACA and Obamacare are the same thing. These are the sorts of people who believe “Obamacare” is another term for Medicaid.


What will the Magas do when they get a letter that their Affordable Care Act (ACA) insurance is being terminated on December 15, 2025? Furiously searching “Obamacare, Obama Care, Barack Care, Barack Obama Care, ObammaCarez.”


So, so this! lol

That's right. Importing food isn't at the top of list but it's significant and we certainly export it! You bet your bottom dollar that we'll be hit with retaliatory tariffs on soybeans and corn and other foodstuffs. Oh, and most of the non-food products (you know things like electronics, clothes, steel, car parts, and the like) are imported (https://www.investopedia.com/news/what-are-top-us-imports/). Heck, I'll bet most of the stuff at a Walmart is imported. The prices on all of those things will be going up, up, up.


+1 I think people have forgotten about the subsidies we had to pay farmers for the retaliatory tariffs: https://www.forbes.com/sites/stuartanderson/2020/01/21/trump-tariff-aid-to-farmers-cost-more-than-us-nuclear-forces/

Very few knew about the farmer subsidies.

“Nope, they’ll never overturn Roe! It will never happen.”

No. They’re greedy. Look at how much they’ve all made since Tuesday. It’s sickening. Their base is a tool to get rich.

They’ll dangle a carrot. But, then they own you.

I think the problem is most people think they’re fine with papers, but I’m afraid that the little guys - the sheriffs, the police, the white mobs - are now emboldened to wreak havoc.

You may have noticed that Trump has a cult following? Autocrats pretty famously have terrible militaries with compulsory service, loyalty oaths, and old equipment. They don’t spend much on the military because it’s all performative and the autocrat keeps the money for himself. Just like Trump: looks tough but actually weak and just for show

Y’all really need to read more.

The farmers knew and voted for Trump, per WSJ. Guess white men like welfare.

Our children. They will be drafted and sent to fight China for minerals that Elon can use to build his rockets.

+1 how are they going to hunt all of these undocumented people down? You can’t tell by looking at someone. Especially the DACA age group that went to school here. Are they going to ask every brown person speaking Spanish? Do raids on immigrant owned businesses?

But I so wish for it all to work out just as we know it will. Let them lose their healthcare and social security and welfare. Let them all get deported, every single one of them. Let our stocks go up while they wallow in their paycheck to paycheck. Let their families go hungry and sick. Let Musk cut the government in half, all of it. Let their women bleed out in hospitals.

We will be fine but I cannot wait, cannot I tell you, for them to reap what they sow.


Who exactly is the "them" that you're talking about? Who are these people that wallow in their paycheck to paycheck while you get to see your stocks go up?


Is this a serious question? Because the rich are just gonna get richer.



Fun in the time of trump

Every morning, every evening, Ain't we got fun?
Not much money, oh, but honey, Ain't we got fun?
The rent's unpaid, dear We haven't a car
But in any way, dear, We'll stay as we are
Even if we owe the grocer Don't we have fun
Tax collector's getting closer Still we have fun
There's nothing surer
The rich get rich and the poor get poorer
In the meantime, in between time
Ain't we got fun!!!
