'Going to be like the zombie apocalypse': Trump voters tell CNN they're terrified of Trumpcare

Source: Raw Story

CNN had a panel of Trump voters on to talk about health care on Thursday — and many of them were not impressed by what they’ve seen from congressional Republicans so far.

Trump voter Colleen England Byrd told CNN’s Alisyn Camerota that she was “scared” of the Republicans’ health care plan, and said that she needed help from the government to be able to afford key medications.

“I have bipolar disorder, it’s a pretty severe case,” she explained. “And if he takes that away — Medicaid people, Medicare people, no medications, no doctors — it’s going to be like the zombie apocalypse, really running-through-the-streets crazy.”

9. Yep. They'll have their lives destroyed and they'll STILL vote Republican.

Because they will blame the Ds for everything done by the Rs, just like they always have.

4. There's a compassionate side of me that says nobody should suffer, even from their own foolishness

There's also a tiny voice that says people need to experience the consequences of their moronic decisions.

6. Just wait until Trump voters learn that most new jobs are healthcare related...

...and they'll disappear with a GOP/Trumpcare program.

I'm having real trouble continuing to care about dumbass deplorables. How many deaths will it take for them to wake the hell up?

They at least sound like people I could have a conversation with. The 'you're fired" guy...I just can't.

Can we at least get a view from the other side? You know, the normal people?

Republicans are in power.

They are eating the poor and middle class.

12. even the job creation is not that great

Trump touts the job numbers like crazy, but they're really below average overall - especially when compared to Obama and Clinton.

But, Trump has been running campaign ads in battleground states touting the job creation, which is helping his numbers in those states because Democrats are not running anything to counter those statements.
