In reply to the discussion: Trump: people who work for the VA are "sadists" & should get "their ass kicked" by vets [View all]Hortensis
(58,785 posts)33. It's not Rump. IT'S THE KOCHS ET AL. They intend to destroy the VA
as part of their plot to get rid of all such programs, and monetize vet's health problems.
The seditious anti-VA organization "Concerned Veterans for America" is a Koch alliance creation. The new department Rump authorized within the VA to encourage production of stories they can develop into major scandals is a Koch alliance creation.
Of course lives are in danger, but if Rump himself dropped dead today this would continue, and more reliably and efficiently, under VP Pence, who is himself another creation of the Koch Alliance.

Pence is very, very scary and Right-Wing, more of a True Believer by far than Trump. I can only
