All that a Trump supporters have to show for their votes are those lousy hats. Their heads are covered, but their health needs are not. Trump's threats to Obamacare subsidies, and his inconsistencies, are driving medical premiums up. TrumpCare pays for nearly a trillion dollars of tax cuts for the wealthy by trimming an equal amount from Medicare expansion and premium assistance . His financially pressed loyalists will again be uninsured.
Trump's populist rhetoric is barely audible on his scratchy record. He is filling the swamp far faster than he is draining it. Billionaires dominate his cabinet, and lobbyists are lurking in the government. The number of lobbyists hired before waiting the customary 2 years, is a state secret.
Trump's budget is like cigar aficionados in a carnival fun house--all smoke and mirrors. The fake budget double counts and inflates growth projections. Fat cats feast, as the working poor lose food stamps. Trump supporters vainly hoping for a hand up, better not look down. The safety net is gone.
