if all of these articles coming out about the Democratic Party getting ready to stab us retirees, elderly, mentally ill, low wage earners and all the rest of us Joe and Josephine smucks in the back are to prepare us for the sinking of the Titanic, okay, we've been warned. But until I see it on paper and our POTUS signs off on it, I'm not going to believe the knife in the back stuff. Period. I just can't believe he would do it to people who stood in line 8-9 hours so that we could have some protection against the vulture capitalists and vulture politicians. Just can't believe it. Nope. Not now. Not yet.
