Here for political sanity. Since we currently have no way to rein in the radical right media silos of propaganda & lies, this craziness is going to last way past Trump. So strap in.

Do these GOP legislators assume their constituents are so uninformed that actually BUY this nonsense, or are they so confident that their voters are safely cocooned in right-wing media echo chamber and will never hear the real facts?

Cassidy: "The president is proposing that we take the $26b that would be going to insurance companies if we just do an extension and give it directly to the American people in which 100% of the money is used for them to purchase healthcare on their own terms. That makes them an informed consumer."

Since Trump is running the Orban playbook (only faster), you might let your MAGA family & friends know what's coming:
Once perceived to be wealthiest country in Central Europe, Hungary now one of the poorest countries in the EU. Industrial production falling year-over-year. Productivity close to lowest in region. Unemployment creeping upward. Perceived as the most corrupt in the EU for three years in a row.
