Brian Beutler: Vance Lets Slip: He and Trump Are Coming For Your Health Care



Greg Sargent
JD Vance letting the truth slip that Trump and Rs would roll back health coverage for those with preexisting conditions shows that Trump/Vance don't actually have magical political powers, and libs/Dems should go into battle unafraid, argues Brian Beutler:


Vance Lets Slip: He and Trump Are Coming For Your Health Care

It's not just Project 2025 or Trump's failed ACA repeal. Vance accidentally admitted the NEW plan is to screw over people with pre-existing conditions specifically.

Democrats are always hoping for a break that’ll thrust kitchen-table issues like health care into the headlines. Suddenly they have two to work with.

Donald Trump provided them the first one at last week’s presidential debate, when he admitted, nine years after he began trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act, that he only has “concepts of a plan” to replace a law that tens of millions of Americans depend upon for their health insurance.

Now comes another.

Asked Sunday on Meet the Press to elaborate on Trump’s health care “concepts,” his running mate JD Vance explained that the Trump health-care agenda is to wreck protections for pre-existing conditions (while lying about it).

There'll be professional assassins on his fat ass. And they'll be working for the oligarchs who have foisted the NAZI-GQP Axis of Weasels on America.

Trump is the Ticket. Vance is the Plan. And Project 2025 is Mein Kampf for MAGA: the Turd Reich.
