Trumpcare Die Ins Flood Senate Republicans Nationwide As Patriotic Americans Fight Back



Trumpcare Die Ins Flood Senate Republicans Nationwide As Patriotic Americans Fight Back

Patriotic Americans are fighting back. All across the country, people are protesting Trumpcare and holding “die-ins” to demonstrate the result of the horrific Republican bill that will not only “repeal” Obamacare, but go back to times darker than before Obamacare in terms of healthcare.

Senator Mitch McConnell created a panel of 13 men, none of whom seem to be familiar or in touch with real Americans and their healthcare needs, to craft this bill in secret. No women participated. It is scheduled for a vote before the July 4th recess, even though the CBO hasn’t even scored it yet and Republicans are only granting 20 hours of floor debate even though Obamcare had 270 hours of debate in the Senate.

Many people will die as a result of the Senate Republican bill if it’s passed. People could reach their lifetime cap in the middle of chemo. A pregnant woman and her baby could die as she’s giving birth because pregnancy isn’t be covered. Our veterans won’t be able to get the care they earned.

That was on my sign at my second protest in January. R.I.P-USA!
MSNBC said Loser In Chief isn't feeling well physically and mentally from the stress over the past few months...tough shit! I am feeling worse, especially since I rely on the ACA.

While I admire the protests, the massive tax cuts for their masters in the ruling class is their only objective.
