45. Because it's not perfect, Mr. President

Forget the crazies ... a good portion of your base thinks you sold out. They'd rather no one have access if the single payer isn't available. Damned if you do, damned if you don't ... it's a crazy and illogical world, Mr. President. And if only ONE of our own has a problem or isn't treated appropriately, look out ... you are a fucking POS used car salesman, didn't you know? But thanks anyway.
