They are echoing the Repug talking points.

(5,693 posts)Even the doctor whose daughter has a preexisting condition said Trumpcare would be better for her. Ruhle should have asked how she was going to have a choice when preexisting conditions don't have to be covered anymore - and many other pushback questions for the other ones weren't asked, either.

Truly heavy sigh.

(58,785 posts)just in time to listen to their sorry, smiling excuses for the inexcusable. All these people live with the connection between lack of healthcare and death. "Decentralizing" as a way to deliver good healthcare to all Americans? Not that he in any way claimed that was a goal for his five-syllable euphemism. Still wanna spit.

(36,926 posts)I just don't know why a journalist would bring that up. Them's fighting words for a lot of us. But, also, as I said, I find her very irritating as a t.v. personality.

(2,914 posts)I replied to the poster who said Ruhle's father ran on the ticket with Goldwater. That is not Stephanie Ruhle, it is Stephanie Miller.
You might want to read the reply before you scream a response.

(58,598 posts)she's at least not a Trump shill. Her producer probably set up the guests per directions from Lack, that new guy who is trying to set up a Fox Noise clone.

Note: I have no idea -- nor interest -- in her politics. I've watched perhaps a total of 15 minutes of her.

(9,036 posts)they lack empathy for poor people who would not be able to afford insurance if they lose Medicaid or see their premiums shoot up. They should be ashamed of themselves.

(16,371 posts)The AMA came out strongly against Trumpcare, but there are a couple of right wing groups for docs without empathy, including one that Rand Paul founded for himself.

(34,131 posts)And who are willing to come out to spout Republican talking points. So far as was said, those are their only qualifications for discussing the subject.
