I don't see it as a "working, but imperfect system".

I see it as a clusterfuck.

And it's got Obama's and the Democrats names on it.

Let the Republican have their turn so that they can replace it with another clusterfuck.

Then they will have that Albatross around their necks instead of the Democrats having it around theirs.

Then it's the Democrats turn and they make another push for a real solution. "Medicare for All". Unless they wimp out again.

I know. This thinking more than one move ahead is hard for you isn't it?

He didn't.

So, Trump is one of the "good" oligarchs?

Maybe Trump won't have enough time in the White House to screw things up too bad..... Seems he has a few law suits to deal with.

Speaking of "draining the swamp,"

The former Illinois congressman whose Capitol Hill office was decorated in the style of the TV show “Downton Abbey,” and whose six-pack abs landed him on the cover of Men’s Health, was indicted Thursday on charges that he misspent government and campaign money for his personal benefit...

Schock was charged in a 24-count indictment with wire fraud, mail fraud, theft of government funds, making false statements and filing false documents. The 52-page document spells out a broad array of misdeeds spanning 2008 to 2015.

Of course people will die after the Republicans take away their med coverage. But maybe things will be better later.

If they do, that will be on the Democrats for running a candidate so bad that she couldn't even beat Trump. let alone have any coat tails to take back the Senate in spite of the Democrats having a 24-10 advantage in seats being contested.

No
Bullshit
The choice was Trump Clinton
If one of your grandkids someday can't get covered till the age of 26 because PG dumps the ACA that's on you. Sanders was moot on 9 Nov 2016.
If my vote for Hillary counts so does your vote for PG.
