I don't understand why Americans don't start a revolution on this alone 👇
My health insurance premiums will more than double in January. I pay a little less than $500/month for my current silver plan.

I just reapplied and my new premium will be $1062/month.

And don’t forget: I still have a co-pay for every visit and pay for prescriptions.

It's particularly an attack on women, because he's inadequate.
Message to the press:

The next time Trump calls one of your colleagues a derogatory name, don’t let it slide.

Follow up and demand an apology on the record or walk out.

His habitual rudeness is not “just Trump being Trump.”

It’s an attack on the profession, and you shouldn’t tolerate it.

Conversation in B&M at the checkout, whilst buying a sharp tool that needed managerial consent, with apologetic checkout guy:

Me: It's ok, I understand.

Him: I don't care what you do with it, I've sold more dodgy things to dodgier looking people than you.

This is beyond comprehension 🤦‍♀️
The federal government now pays lots of masked agents to stand in parking lots & aggressively discriminate against shoppers on the basis of skin color.
What a sick world.
