Americans Really Don't Want DOTARD To Sabotage Obamacare, Poll Finds

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-obamacare-sabotage-poll_us_59e0e5f1e4b04d1d51816774?ncid=inblnkushpmg00000009

President Dotard seems to think the American public will blame Democrats for the consequences of the actions he’s taken to weaken the Affordable Care Act’s health insurance markets. A new poll suggests he’s wrong.

Seventy-one percent of Americans believe Dotard should be doing all he can to make the health insurance exchanges work as well as possible, according to a survey conducted earlier this month by the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation. This is consistent with the foundation’s previous survey findings.

Dotard has been explicit about his motives for undermining the Affordable Care Act, including by stopping payment of billions of dollars the federal government owes to health insurance companies that serve the poorest exchange enrollees.

He sees sabotaging Obamacare as a means to force congressional Democrats to help revive the GOP’s failed effort to repeal the Affordable Care Act. He’s counting on voters to blame chaos in the insurance market on the party that originally created the law and not on his administration, which is currently in charge of enforcing it.

believe everything he says. And right now, he's saying he's doing these things to make Obamacare better because it is imploding under its own weight. Keep in mind he could say 2+2=3 and they'd believe him.
