Primary this clown. 

 

now, can they still pass it whenever it finally comes to the vote or will Trump bludgeon a couple of them into submission before then?

I doubt it. It would still need 60 votes in the senate and Trump would veto it anyways.

Can anyone tell me what the intellectual argument against healthcare subsidies is? Why is it a bad thing? Serious question.

I don't have one, but I'm sure Naziholic will be around soon with a meme about transgender surgery.

There is no intellectual argument for almost anything MAGA and the Republican Party supports. Not on healthcare most especially.

Their only real objective is cruelty and to keep that money in the hands of the billionaires.

every dollar the Federal government spends on healthcare for ordinary people is another increment in the political necessity to start seriously controlling health care costs in the US. That's a big gravy train you are threatening with billions of dollars of campaign contributions connected to it. Now I'll grant you that is not an argument about the public's interest at all, but since when did that matter in  modern US politics?

Today it is everywhere and always about the campaign money.

They piss away enough money each and every year - and have done so my entire lifetime - to give we the people the same health"care" as these worthless pukes who inhabit DC are fortunate to have. The money we pay on the interest on our debt alone would do wonders... Money is fungible, so just an example.

Anyone who thinks these worthless ****s are going to fix this cluster **** (of their own making) has their head firmly stuffed up their ass.
