OK. Talk about healthcare.
The Democrats passed a plan that covered millions more than before.
Trump and the Republicans promised to replace it with something better.
How's that going?
It's taking time and we should talk about why. But don't let the media tell you that it's a failure, when ObamaCare took significantly longer to pass. We don't know that it's failed, we know only that it hasn't gotten far. In both cases, it's more partisan politics at play with the opposing party not offering a single person to support it. Trump was blasted by right and left, he's not partisan. If you actually look at what he said he wanted in the final bill, it's things that both Dems and Repubs would have to find common ground on. Which is good. But it doesn't matter what Trump says, because for everything that is ostensibly good, or neutral, there are a million Vox, Slate, Salon, WashPost, NYTimes, OccupyDem, Politico articles waiting to totally demonize. The media has gone from being biased to hyperpartisan at the level of hysteria. If you don't think the millions upon millions of moderates and independents don't see this, and aren't on some level warming up to the idea of 'fake news,' you're living in a different world
