The atmosphere in Washington, D.C. is poisonous. The only goal for many is to score political wins so they can pat themselves on the back, brag to constituents, and hopefully continue the flow of campaign contributions from large backers to remain in office.

True to a degree for years, the GOP and, now, Donald Trump have taken this to ever new heights. The latter went on another of his Twitter rampages after the Senate seemed to kill off any hope of healthcare legislation in an attempt to shake up members of the Senate and force them to pass something on healthcare — anything, really, it doesn't seem to matter — so he can claim a political win. A win based on legislation that he and his administration had no hand in. And it looks like he's threatening to cut off fund used to help stabilize markets and aid insurance companies in providing coverage to lower-income Americans.

Just a few hours ago, he threatened that, if a new bill is not quickly passed, he would end "bailouts" for insurance companies and members of Congress.

For insurance companies, that likely means the subsidy payments that reimburse the additional costs of coverage for lower-income citizens.
