Trump and healthcare

Trump is making up words that do not exist, again:

https://www.rawstory.com/trump-glitches-rally-pennsylvania/

Some word called adlinthin.

Never mind, when it comes to healthcare, he is incompetent.

40% of deaths from COVID caused by his health policy:

Or the risk due to the SCOTUS repealing Roe vs Wade.

Or the failed attempt to repeal ACA that would have left millions without healthcare.

I can write on that last point.
I am currently in remission of lymphoma but would have not reached it because ACA provides me protection against lifetime limits.
I was first diagnosed with lymphoma some 35 years ago and insurance has paid millions in cancer care alone.

1. Trump and the GOP do not care how many Americans they kill.

Dead Americans are just collateral damage in their quest for money and power.

And to be honest, Trump is sadistic sick SOB who enjoys killing and harming others,
He gets off on it.

People being violent in his name, trying to kill Pence and keep him in power.

Trump was on a total narcissistic high.
Like giving heroin to a drug addict.

Yes of course he wants more, much more of the same.

Nobody seems to remember when candidate Trump said on 60 Minutes that he would replace the ACA with something so so much better. It would cover everybody and be less expensive and we'd all love it. Never even offered a plan once in office. Just wanted to destroy the ACA.

He'd do it given another chance and nobody ever calls him out on this.
