It's the way for DCUMers to continue their "election depression" so that they can take more pills and drink more wine than usual.

If Trump gets rid of lifetime maximums and protections for pre-existing conditions, she is screwed and part of me thinks - that's good.

I'm the bleeding heart liberal who fights for anyone who needs help but I've kind of had it with people who don't bother to educate themselves at least on what is in their own best interest.

So I'm horrified by Trump and I hope the damage he inflicts is minimized as much as possible.

But if he is going to make things hard for people - I hope it's the idiots who thought the man with "a concept of a plan" was the person they should support instead of a woman who actually had the ability to make things better for them.

And Harris would have had medicare fund home health care workers. Well I hope all those people who voted for Trump and need to pay out of pocket for help realize they did it to themselves.

Your arrogance is quite something.

I fear for my disabled young adult, and loathe all Trump voters.

WE did the right thing and voted for Democrats.

We are making a family plan now to protect ourselves.

What do you want to happen to them?

Think the blind, those without limbs, those who can no longer walk or stand, those with intellectual disabilities, the severely autistic.

What will happen to those millions of people with no income after Elon Musk and his efficiency crew cancels anything not money generating?

Republicans are like America's husbands, and Democrats are the wives who keep them barely civilized.

He can't just waive a magic wand and take away everything. I don't recall him mentioning that the second he takes office he's coming after the disabled. Lets see what get proposed and then we can advocate and try to stop it.
