(3,880 posts)2. He needs to hammer home that trump wants to end Social Security and Medicare, this is a HUGE issue
for older folks, and they ( I should say WE) usually vote in large numbers, this needs to be messaged out EVERY DAY, I think it would make a huge difference.
If trump ends SS I could live maybe 3 years on what I have, then instant drop off the cliff into homelessness.

(7,654 posts)3. you think the supreme court and the virus are unrelated?
Because I sure don't.
The ACA is likely trashed when it comes before the Court in November.
That means Medicare expansion is reverted, and so are preexisting conditions.
Mass healthcare chaos.
In a pandemic.
He's doing the smart thing, talking about the Supreme Court in the context of health care knowing that those worried about abortion don't need him to get motivated about it.
