We need to use as much hyperbole as Drumpf and the Deplorable GOP on this one.

Re: The GOP's Medicare reform.

We must say they want to take away your Medicare, period.


Extremism in defense of the vulnerable is no vice. Moderation in pursuit of social and economic justice is no virtue.




Medicare stays as f--king is.

They REALLY do want to take away everybody's Medicare. Those poor fools just wanted to make America great again; I guess they didn't know that being 'great' didn't involve having access to healthcare.
