Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill could increase the country’s medical debt by $50 billion. Some families’ medical debt could increase by over $20,000 due to the lack of coverage.

What does Qatar get in return for the $400M plane it's gifting to Donald Trump? 

What’s the quid for the quo? 

It could be any number of things.

The only certainty is that you and I and other Americans won’t necessarily benefit.
