just goes to show you can fool some of the people all the time.

The thing that truly pisses me off is the lack of context--are people really so stupid as to trade a short-term boost of a few dollars (if that) in their paycheck vs. health insurance going up, destroying SS and Medicare (because we know that's the next step in the plan) and letting the rich loot the treasury?

Oh, well--I might as well wonder whether enough 'Muricans are dumb enough to vote for a failed businessman criminal Russian puppet money launderer.
