Famous last words.
And poof, just like that one of his main campaign promises to bring down the cost of groceries has vanished because he says it's very hard. To all the MAGA maroons that voted for this imbecile, this is on you. I guess con artists are gonna con and an uneducated electorate fell for it.

One of the most common & heartbreaking complaints I hear from seniors is that they are being denied care by their "Medicare Advantage" plan -- a private insurance plan that exploits Medicare's sterling reputation for profit. We do not need more privatization of Medicare.

A good friend died of cancer this morning. He helped a lot of people get sober over the years. That’s the right way to leave this life - with a trail of good works and loving friends and family behind.
