Because if the previous SCOTUS struck down the requirement for states to expand Medicare to childless, non-disabled adults who were under the poverty line, even if it was paid for by the federal government, why does anyone think the current SCOTUS will reverse that, AND uphold a requirement for states to expand Medicare to all residents?
So, tell us what sick people are supposed to do until there's a new SCOTUS? Accept that Democrats aren't going to "waste their time on fighting every GD kite the Republicans fly past them" including trying to keep coverage for the 30 million who will lose it if the GOP gets their way?
And please tell us what the Democrats "could" be doing that they are not? And what are the "GD kites that the Republicans are flying past them?" Not releasing the Mueller report? Continued corruption and misconduct by cabinet members? The jailing and sexual assault of immigrant minors? The implications of the Cohen testimony? Which of these are simply "kites?"
Because here on DU there are a some people who think that Democratic leaders need to be in front of mics every day screaming about the corruption, and complain when they don't.
