So, when will we start seeing the hospitals close?

When will we start seeing food rationing lines?

When will we see the economy tank?

When will we see the stock market crash?

When will we see the real inflation kick in?

When will we see the total collapse of our government and our country?

What is going to happen when the very same GOBers who caved to their king, start to say that they made a mistake? Too late now!

All these “when will we’s…..” is coming very soon. It won’t be slow, but at a rapid pace like we’ve never seen before.

Good luck everyone! Keep believing in miracles, that Trump will be gone sooner rather than later!

of the income provided by the programs now being cut it could happen very quickly and medical facilities are often the primary employers of those regions with massive trickle down impact to other businesses.

Since so many rural areas are ruby red, the FAFA is gonna be a shock.

trump’s BBB includes funding to offset some loses resulting from removing people from Medicaid rolls.

Most will survive — if barely - for at least a few more years. Some, honestly, should have been turned into freestanding ER, clinics decades ago.

Hospitals have closed every year for at least last 40 years. Hopefully, and I believe it will happen, decent states will develop better ways of handling rural healthcare. But, a gradual, planned way of doing that should have been in the BBB.

along because vast many of tax aspects are little different from trump’s term and those cuts continued through Biden’s term and are now extended. Debt and Deficits will continue rising though.

The biggest group that gets hurt are those who GOPers think should work, volunteer, go to school, or something. Immigrants will be treated even worse than they have been.

Government won’t collapse, but it won’t be doing what it should. A Democratic win in midterms would be a huge change.

Some states will increase funding for SNAP, some rube states won’t give a chit.

She worked for a not for profit nursing home that was credited with great patient care. She recently was asked to join a hospital board. Both are located in New York State. One in a blue suburb and one in a blue city. They're all nervous about what this horrible travesty of a bill will mean for their patients and their staffs.

Those who voted for Trump deserve to be devastated by what they voted for. No one should believe their crocodile tears and lies that they didn't know he'd do exactly what he's doing. They were warned time and time again, but turned a deaf ear and called us "woke." I just feel sorry for all of us who voted for Harris, those who weren't eligible to vote like children, and those too ill to make it to the polls. None of us deserve this hell.

They no longer believe him. More people are turning away from him every day.

It is still going to get very messy though , really ugly- because the crazy billionaires still want to take over the country, as does Project 2025, but Trump isn’t getting any more true believers.
