What if in order to sign Medicare 4 All, he demanded on calling it "trumpcare"

Would it be worth it?

It's been a rough week, humor me.

1. UGH I have had this same thought myself!

.....but I guess yeah...we could train ppl to refer to it as whatever legal name it will acquire..

3. To paraphrase Tyrion Lannister. "Why not just lie?"

I won't lose any sleep over lying to that orange bastard. He's sure not losing any over stealing the election.

2. I don't care what they call it.

The problem is, many doctors are no longer taking Medicare. We have 14 doctors in our county, only one takes Medicare and he says if a Medicare for all Plan passes, he will stop taking it. That means, we would have to drive 40 miles to see a doctor.

5. Also means he'd be retired, unless there are a lot of wealthy people who like him there.

4. No problem, we can still call it Medicare

6. I'd sign up for Trumpcare 🙂

I retired a few years early at 54 so I must buy my own insurance. In my location (southern Arizona) there is only one option called Healthnet as Blue Cross pulled out last December. It costs $650 a month. Unfortunately my doc of 32 years doesn't take Healthnet. Now, I'm not complaining I am good living with the inconvenience and high cost since Obamacare allowed so many millions more to have insurance. But, as soon as Medicare is available for all I am signing up no matter what it is called!

7. Names can be changed at the appropriate time.

I doubt they would call it that though. For what reason? It's not his brain child. (Eew.. bad analogy)

8. He can call it Sammy, for all I care...

As long as it does what it is supposed to.

9. What if...

We simply used this to our advantage. Name it that from the get go and his dumb ego will love it, which would in turn encourage him to sign anything put in front if him.

11. A rose by any other name is still a rose.
