We will NOT all get through this! In my opinion Trump cannot be allowed to implement the policies he is presently espousing and have them furthered by actions of his prospective picks. There are many people who could die from these actions and many, many more who will be hurt. He is playing with the very basics of life for millions of people. Healthcare in general, Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security are all programs that cannot be eliminated on an ideological whim. I don't have the answers but somebody damn well better come up with something or it is going to get really, really messy.
