Someone needs to ask him what kind of medical services people with chronic health conditions (in high risk pools) can buy for $2000?

How long will a $2000 health savings account last someone who needs cancer treatment?
Why do health insurance pools exist?
If we had a Medicare-for-all system, everyone would be in the same risk-pool, bringing down costs for patients.

Greene recognizes that the president has broken faith with his own followers, and she's exploiting it for a 2028 run.

Marjorie Taylor Greene planning for a day when the MAGA movement is no longer led by Trump, but by a leader who can speak on behalf of its disgruntled base. Somebody like her.

She's just a wolf in sheep's clothing.
