To Trump's base the contents of the GOP's Obamacare replacement bill are irrelevant

What's relevant to them, is that it's no longer associated with a Black man.

Trump and his core base of supporters couldn't care less what Obamacare is replaced with, they just want to replace it because it's associated with President Obama.

But right now they're more concerned that everyone else gets screwed

Trump can tell them, they will be losing their homes and living in cardboard boxes under bridges, and as long as he can convince them that people with darker skin that theirs will also be suffering, they will support it.

A lot of them have major medical problems like my brother-in-law.

He will die rather quickly without medical care.

This is our lives - not a game. We are not a sports rival. We are their brothers and sisters and family.

I am so saddened that they have allowed their braggadocio to overtake them to the point where they will cause many of us to die.

They are nasty, hate-filled, ignorant, deplorable assholes.

Exactly like the jackass they got in the "White House" - wherever that golf weekend might be.

Let's consider that he trusts people who lie to him... "our healthcare plan is going to be fantastic for everybody!"... and believes them? And that it doesn't matter how many other people give him FACTS... those would all be "fake news".

I am certain he doesn't actually know the details of the bill. I am also leaning to the thought that he ACTUALLY BELIEVES it will be better for everybody.

Oh, never mind. He's just a fucking mentally diseased individual... might be evil, might be stupid, might be evilly stupid, and might be stupidly evil. Might be evil plus stupid. OK.... I found the right description.
