Trump supporter credits Trumpcare — which hasn’t taken effect — for dramatically lower health costs

Charla McComic’s son recently lost his job, and his health-insurance premium dropped from $567 per month to $88, which she described as “a blessing from God” and a gift from the new president, reported the Washington Post.

The 52-year-old former first-grade teacher thinks the change is due to tax credits that would be offered under the so-called “Trumpcare” law, if and when it’s approved by Congress and signed into law — but the price drop is actually a feature of former President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act.

Workers who lose their jobs and employer-based health care coverage may enroll in Obamacare, which offers coverage based on income or possibly Medicaid for those with little or no income — like McComic’s son.

“So far, everything’s been positive, from what I can tell,” she told the newspaper. “I just hope that more and more people and children get covered under this new health-care plan.”

5. I love the poorly edumacated!

"The 52-year-old former first-grade teacher thinks the change is due to tax credits that would be offered under the so-called “Trumpcare” law,"

Due to tax credits that would....be credited next year at the earliest (assuming the law passed right now).

This is the person teaching your kids, folks! I would say something about her grade level, but I don't want to insult first graders....

6. This is just unbelieveable!

I hope the reporter told her the facts.

I feel bad that in this country someone who was once qualified enough to be a teacher could remain so ignorant.

She is my age. Surely she is aware that nothing in the government as big as a healthcare bill can get done in two months!!
