Nancy Pelosi Goes Off On Mitch McConnell And Senate Republican Hypocrites

"SNIP.....

Speaker Pelosi called out Mitch McConnell and Senate Republican hypocrites for opposing ACA subsidies after they passed a tax cut for the wealthy in the dead of night.

...

Pelosi said when asked about McConnell and Senate Republican concerns that more people might receive ACA subsidies:

This is a two-year extension of an improvement on the Affordable Care Act so that the subsidies would be available to the next tier of income people. It’s not about wealth.

If they want to talk about wealth, they should look at their own tax scam that they passed in the dark of night in the speed of light that gave 83% of the benefits to top 1% forcing nearly $2 trillion of debt on our children to pay in the future in order to give tax breaks to the high-end. They ought not to be complaining about some people making a little more money getting a subsidy

The media are quite adept at forgetting all about Republican skullduggery while decrying it when Democrats use Republicans' tactics against them. The Republicans wanted to shovel more of the Treasury into the overstuffed pockets of the wealthy; Democrats wanted to make getting health care easier for more Americans. Po-tay-to, po-tah-to for the media.
