...including his supporters. The "Obama" in the word "Obamacare" was a dog whistle to his cult, so it was allowable.

ObamaCares when we were trying to get that. They are still looking for that better plan 12 years and counting. Needless to say, they are slow learners or excellent procrastinators.

'repeal and replace Obamacare with the greatest health care' always meant 'replace no care (his thought for a black president's health plan) with no care at all (the cheapest for corporations).'
We dismiss Trump as looney. He wasn't. Once you examine his ideas for racism and feed-the-rich components, they make perfect sense.

Everything he says is a lie. Believe nothing, and you will be better prepared.
