Make no mistake - for Trump supporters, repealing "Obamacare" has nothing to do with health care. [View all]
Clue: the "Obama" in the term "Obamacare" from the school of Frank Luntz and similar focus-testing right-wing assholes.
Gee, I wonder why some of the people who directly benefit from "Obamacare" would want to see it destroyed. Real head-scratcher, that one.
Obviously the wealthy donors who bankroll the Republican Party (not the least of which include their elected officials - whom are aggressively lobbied by agents of the donor class on a daily basis) want this monstrous (even by Republican standards...) tax cut for the wealthy that is (pretty fucking transparently) wrapped up as a "health care bill." Their motivations, while certainly cruel and sociopathic, are more straightforward on this one. They want their taxes cut, and fuck everyone else. OK.
But when you turn to your typical middle or lower-middle income Trump voter and THEIR motivations for wanting "Obamacare" repealed...well, it gets more complicated, doesn't it? Because a lot of them like the Affordable Care Act, more or less. Many directly benefit from it, along with many of their family members. But when the orange-maned Dear Leader starts ranting and raving about repealing and replacing "Obamacare" with "something bigger and better, believe me"...well
Why do you all think I posted this in the African-American Group?
