system so the private industry can take over and give really bad care. She's a Trump fan. She's been to Mar a Lago. I think the separatists have only about 30% support. This is smoke to hide the changes to things like healthcare. I'm sure the Premier, Daniel Smith, would love to get taken over by Trump. She could then steal and self deal and become a billionaire that she can't do now or she would face criminal charges.
