I don't care what happens to elderly Republicans anymore

So yeah, now that Trumpcare has been unveiled, Trump's elderly supporters are all pissy because it negatively affects THEM. If Trumpcare only affected people other than them, they'd be sucking Paul Ryan's cock.

We spent 18 months saying that the Republicans would do shit that would screw them. But did they listen? No. They were more concerned about e-mails, conspiracy bullshit, and some social issue bullshit that has literally nothing to do with them.

They called us snowflakes and every slur known to man. They celebrated the idea that the disabled, especially the urban disabled, might die from Medicaid cuts

But now that they're on the chopping block, they're all pissed about it. And they'll stay pissed only until the Senate manages to pull them out of the fire. Of course everyone else will be left in it but as long as the red hat wearing old farts have their healthcare they don't give one iota of a fuck about anyone else,

They deserve to lose their healthcare. And honest to God, I hope they do. Not because I'm under the slightest bit of an illusion that their voting behavior will change. They'd still vote Republican because that's what Pastor Billy Bob said to do.

No I hope they lose their healthcare because they'll die. And then we can get somewhere.

6. You beat me to it! If it was ONLY the Pubs who were affected by this bill, I wouldn't care either

but it doesn't work that way. My biggest concern right now is are there enough people against the bill...for any reason...to keep they from pushing it through on their "FAST TRACK" before enough info gets out that NO ONE will back it!

3. Sadly as they die off, more are often growing up. They never seem to die off. It's inherited

ignorance, sadly. IMO it's now genetic. And you'll lose elderly democrats too, sadly caught up in the same shit-storm ignorant and stupid republicans create.

Evidenced by your handle, you must be in the thick of those old decrepit cretins.
