In Office Less Than Six Months and Trump Has Already Screwed Up Health Care – Insurers Informing Clients You May Not Have Insurance After Dec. 31

Something It Would Have Taken an Ordinary Man Years

Trump and Friends with Fox and Friends and Paul Ryan and Friends and Mitch McConnell and Friends Step In It Big Time

Republicans control government.  They inhabit the White House.  They have a large majority of the House and a smaller majority in the Senate.  They can pass any legislation they want to.  And after less than half a year here is what is happening with health care, and this from the Republican friendly WSJ.

Hundreds of thousands of consumers across the country are getting letters from insurers warning that their health plans bought under the Affordable Care Act will be terminated at year-end, raising alarm at a politically sensitive moment when Senate Republicans are struggling to craft their own health-care legislation.

But wait, there’s more

The CBO report on the GOP Senate bill said its effect on consumers would vary. Some, particularly younger ones, could see lower premiums than they would under the ACA, partly because plans might be skinnier and cover fewer benefits. But for lower-income consumers or those with special needs, overall medical costs could be significantly higher.

Think about that statement, for lower-income consumers or those with special needs, overall medical costs could be significantly higher.   Just the people Republicans want to pay more.

Gee, this didn’t happen last year.  What has changed?  Oh yeah, now we remember.  Nice going Donnie.
