Chelsea Clinton attacking Bernie -

[TBF]

"Sen. Sanders wants to dismantle ObamaCare,” Clinton said Tuesday in New Hampshire, according to NBC News, at her first stop along the campaign trail. The daughter of Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton referred to a bill Sanders has introduced three times that would replace Affordable Care Act programs with a new national American Health Security Trust Fund, which would allow states to run their own single-payer systems with federal money. Chelsea Clinton said Sanders would also “dismantle Medicare and dismantle private insurance,” as well as strip away benefits from the Children’s Health Insurance Program, which was created under her father’s presidency.

Dismantling a give away program to the insurance and pharma companies is not a bad thing - particularly when the idea is to cover MORE people with a comprehensive single payer system. Social Security and Health Security would be paid for with public monies - tax dollars. Why would a democrat fight such a plan?

1. That shows how out-of-touch she is

[orpupilofnature57]

2. She's playing her role, nothing " Exceptional " there. n/t

[onecaliberal]

3. She's mad that we're going to end the Insurance Company payday.

It's time to help the people, not the corporations, my friends.

[TBF]

4. She has a net worth of $15 Million -

I have no doubt you're correct in your assessment. Would love to know which stocks she's holding.

[onecaliberal]

6. I always had respect for her, but she is sorely testing it.

I don't like their entitlement attitude whatsoever. They really don't understand that the struggle is real, and for how many. People are on to the game, and we're coming for the players.

5. "dismantle" = replace with something way better.

Sigh.

[truebluegreen]

7. Ish.

[TIME TO PANIC]

8. Ill-informed or disingenuous?

I hope the former.

[TBF]

9. She's hardly unintelligent

and that is what makes me so angry. They know exactly what they are doing.

[TIME TO PANIC]

10. Absolutely.

The next few weeks are going to be nasty.

11. I have no problem with dismantling ObamaCare and replacing it with Medicare.

I don't think her comments are going to make any difference.

12. In the new Bloomberg-MSNBC show at 6, both hosts called this attack line a LIE ... literally.

They also decried the use of Chelsea as attack dog.

13. That's going to bite, I mean sting. Good for them. She's pregnant with a one year old and

has no business out mudslinging and lying for her mother. And any mother who would ask or encourage such, well, isn't a very good mother...either.

That's just wrong. Send Bill out...he's got nothing better to do. But for god's sake, let Chelsea help the nannies raise her child and take care of the unborn child. She supposedly works, and has a baby now she's pregnant and campaigning. Wrong. Just. Wrong. And it's not sexist as I rather doubt her hedge fund manager hubby is going to take family leave to watch the baby in the evenings.

The photo op abuela veneer just rubbed off big time.

14. Ain't no Way to Hide Those Liyn Eyes

[Enthusiast]

15. Chelsea Clinton really fucked up!

Hillary too!

The rank and file of the Democratic Party know we must enact single payer Medicare for All. We know there is simply no other answer. It is imperative that we beat back the for profit elements of American health care system and lower the costs to those of our European compatriots.

The Health Care Profiteers® brought this on themselves. If they had moderated their greed they might have operated as a high profit entity forever. But they killed the golden egg laying goose and they will suffer the consequences.
