Fugelsang takes on Don Jr.."And Obama never promised Mexico would pay for Obamacare"

[jodymarie aimee]

I guess Don Jr was ragging on Obamacare and praising his Dad's Wall...which helped folks most....some crap like that.

John Fugelsang Retweeted Donald Trump Jr.

You have never had to worry about affording health care bc you were a millionaire at birth & have no appreciation of your privilege.

Obamacare was passed by Congress & upheld by SCOTUS & while far from perfect it helped ppl. And Obama never promised Mexico would pay for it.

The Trump Files: When Donald Took Revenge by Cutting Off Health Coverage for a Sick Infant
Classy.

The story begins after the death of Trump’s father, Fred Sr., in 1999. As David Cay Johnston explains in his book The Making of Donald Trump, Fred Sr. had written a will after the death of his oldest son, Fred Jr., known as Freddy, in 1981. The will left the majority of Fred Sr.’s wealth to Donald and his surviving siblings. Freddy’s family was largely cut out.

When Fred Sr. died, Freddy’s children sued, claiming that the will “had been ‘procured by fraud and undue influence’ by Donald and the other surviving siblings,” according to Johnston.

Johnston writes that medical insurance had consistently been provided to the family through Fred Sr.’s company. This coverage was crucial for Freddy’s grandson (Donald’s grandnephew), who suffered from seizures and later developed cerebral palsy. So crucial, in fact, that a letter sent from a Trump lawyer to the insurer after the patriarch’s death in 1999 said that “all costs” for the sick child’s care should be covered, regardless of caps on the plan or medical necessity, according to Johnston. That didn’t last long.

A week after the lawsuit was filed in court, Freddy’s son (Donald’s nephew) received a letter informing him that the health insurance would be discontinued, meaning his ill son would be left without coverage. Donald openly admitted to the New York Daily News that he and his siblings took this action out of revenge.

8. This story is covered in David Cay Johnston's biography of Chump

It was only Donald who did this, the other siblings were against it. According to Johnston it's the reason his siblings stopped speaking to Donald almost 30 years ago. Of course that may have changed since the election but for a long time the entire Chump family thought he was the lowest of the low. They went to court against Donald in order to help out Freddie Jr's family who were cheated in the will.

11. Yes, the Mother Jones article gives Johnson credit for the info

[smirkymonkey]

12. That is just evil and unforgivable!

What kind of sick bastard would do that to a sick, helpless child? Out of revenge against his nephew! Donald Trump will go down in history as one of the most depraved, abominable, twisted, black-souled monsters of all time.

His capacity for cruelty and stupidity is bottomless.

16. Except Obamacare Paid For Itself - Even Ran A Small Surplus

That is, until Trump stripped out the provision for fines for people opting to not sign up for health insurance.
