Sen Thune tweet shows GOP heartless hypocracy on Obamacare

National Memo

GOP Senator Concern-Trolls On Obamacare Case At Supreme Court

An act of Twitter trolling by a Republican senator has just gone a long way to highlighting the GOP disingenuousness — and the internal divisions — when it comes to the latest key litigation against the Affordable Care Act.

Senator John Thune (R-SD) posted this Monday on Twitter:


Six million people risk losing their health care subsidies, yet @POTUS continues to deny that Obamacare is bad for the American people.

— Senator John Thune (@SenJohnThune) June 8, 2015


. ...

... Thune seems to be declaring that Obamacare “is bad for the American people” because of the dangers now hanging over said people, caused by the right-wing litigation trying to shut down the law.

Many of Daschel's money baggies backed Thune. Dachel is a Blue Dog and Third Wayer. Sodak is ruled by the Apostolic Religious Fundies and it ain't pretty. Thune is a lapdog for the Hedge Fund and Citi Group crowd. CP Rail and DME Rail plowed millions into his campaign.

What he's saying is that the ACA is bad because it insured a bunch of people who might now lose that insurance because of GOP-instigated litigation intended to cut off access to ACA insurance.
WTF?
