Bannon: Trump Ended Insurer Subsidies To ‘Blow Up’ Obamacare
By ESME CRIBB Published OCTOBER 15, 2017 9:18 AM

President Donald Trump’s former strategist Steve Bannon on Saturday said Trump ended cost-sharing reduction (CSR) payments, which subsidize insurers for keeping out-of-pocket costs down for low-income individuals, to “blow up” Obamacare.

“Gonna blow that thing up,” he said in a speech at the Values Voter Summit. “Gonna blow those exchanges up, right?”

1. And kill Obama legacy and kill me and other Obama voters.

3. Republicans are good with dead democrats

Lots of deplorables are going to be shocked though.

2. Death and illness just collateral damage in the war they wage.

Civilian deaths don't matter to them.

4. Nope, they don't care who dies, as long as they dismantle Obama's greatest achievement...

and the rest of his considerable legacy.

5. And this is how we

Make America Great again? Un fricking believable. The stupidity of this statement sticks out further and further as each day goes by. I'm really digging it being better, since this guy will put me without insurance for the next two years. Yep, I feel proud and great about this country now(sarcasm). Hopefully Medicare will still be in place then. But with this narcissist in power, I'm not counting on it.

6. I know, this makes me so incredibly angry. This man is willing to screw over millions

of Americans because of grudge he harbors against Obama. It's disgusting and wrong.

Anyway, welcome to DU!
