What a difference a few months makes

[Dittohead not!]

November, 2018

In campaign speeches, advertisements and interviews, Republican politicians are showing a zeal for protecting Americans with pre-existing health conditions.

President Trump has gone the furthest, saying not only that he will ensure protections for the previously ill, but also pledging that his party will do so more effectively than Democrats.

As Trump Strikes At ACA, Employers Sound Alarm On Pre-Existing Conditions

Question: What does Trump stand for?
Answer: He doesn't. He'd rather sit.

They lied and lied and lied in the run up to the election. Trump said the Democrats would dismantle Obamacare! GOP candidates spearheading the judicial push to bring back pre-existing conditions said they were against pre-existing conditions! Didn't help most of them but, hallelujah, they all saw the light and became Obamacare devotees in the runup to the midterms.

They lied their asses off and they will continue to lie their asses off. We saw it in 2017, just as we've seen it every year since 2011: give them half a chance and they will come for your coverage. They salivate at the thought of punishing folks with pre-existing conditions. Unless there's an election within a few months.

Same thing happened in 2016. Same thing will happen in 2020.

Republicans / Trump always lie about covering pre-existing conditions and other popular ACA protections just to disregard them soon after the election.

Is this one of those he was only joking things?

He doesn't stand for anything. That's part of his problem. He's never had any convictions in his life, which is why he flip flops more than any other President in our history. He's for gun control until he's against it. He's for abortion until he's against it. He's for healthcare plans until he's against them.

More like a being a joke thing.
