There were literally congressional hearings where whistleblowers in the insurance industry cried while discussing being forced by superiors to repeatedly illegally deny payment for lifesaving care in the run up to the passage of the ACA. That’s what republicans want us to return to.

Garcia: The emails we released today are disturbing. They clearly suggest that Trump may have spent significant time with one of the victims. You have another email that discusses Trump possibly knowing what was happening with some of the girls. It’s really disturbing stuff.
