44,000 A Year Will Die With ACA Repeal Studies Show. What If Those Were War Casualties?

I cannot understand the level of callousness and hate that would allow anyone to cast a vote that is virtually guaranteed to kill 44,000 individual a year. And that number could be a hell of a lot higher. The GOP is truly so evil and we see that evil displayed every day in so many ways. So it is hard to be around a Republican. Republican voters are really no better than serial killers in some ways.

who gave their lives for the cause of repeal. They'd each get a medal with Trump's photo, which they can proudly wear at their burial.

Lets not forget Medicare and Medicaid. Those are going also. They might still be here but privatized and for most on either of those could never ever afford a privatized version. Think twice or three times higher death toll.
