Trump does not save lives

Trump today claimed he saves lives.

What a delusional psychopath and malignant narcissist.

Americans died during COVID crisis because of Trump's policies.

Americans are cancelling their healthcare plans due to rise of ACA subsidies.
Trump has said if the Senate passes the House bill, he may veto.

Now, for my personal story.
In 1990, I was diagnosed with lymphoma.
It returned in 2019.
Unfortunately, 4 different treatments over 2 years failed.
The 5th treatment was successful.
It was successful due in part to Democrats and a few Republicans voting against Trump's repeal of ACA in 2017.
ACA gives me lifetime limit protections.
