... "You have to remember this, are you ready? Because they give us a bum rap. Patients with preexisting conditions are protected by Republicans much more so than protected by Democrats who will never be able to pull it off," Trump said ...

Trump's administration and congressional Republicans have repeatedly put forward bills and lawsuits that would weaken Obamacare's protections for people with preexisting conditions. Trump is supporting a Republican lawsuit that is seeking to get all of Obamacare declared void. He has not issued a plan to reinstate the law's protections for people with preexisting conditions if the suit succeeds ...

"Unemployment, among Hispanic Americans, where we're doing really well. You know why? Because they want a strong border. They want it because they understand the border better than anybody. They want that strong border. They want that wall, that's being built right now. They want that wall, and they really do. They understand the border better than anybody," Trump said ...

He claims he's "building the wall." He's not. They put a plaque for him on a fence erected by Obama. Mexico isn't paying for anything. The best healthcare plan ever created by mankind has not appeared. The environment is getting dirtier because of deregulation. No one has gotten anything out of this administration except the ultra wealthy. He's even screwing the military he claims to love. He reduced the backlog of applications at the VA by rejecting 2/3 of them. And still the drooling cult dons their MAGA hats and "grab my pussy" shirts and shows up to celebrate hate and insanity at his events. Tell them Obama created more jobs and they'll scream "fake news." If all the sane people don't band together to get rid of this mess, the country is going down.
