How can Mike Pence get away with outrageous lies about the health care bill?
GOP's health care bill now involves blatant falsehoods because their voters will literally believe anything

Youre not insane. The congressional Republicans and the White House are absolutely lying about the impact of Trumpcare, and as with their lies about the Trump-Russia scandal, the lies are glaringly obvious.
As you observe these lies while they sail past virtually unchallenged, its not surprising if you might feel a little crazy. Youre not. They know theyre lying and they know you know theyre lying. But heres the critical distinction: The pro-Trump GOP isnt talking to you.
In other words, and to repeat, Pence lied to Americas governors and, of course, to the American people when he preposterously guaranteed that Trumpcare strengthens and secures Medicaid. Nor does it save Medicaid, as Pence promised. In reality, itll do exactly the opposite.
