Later, Lahren talked of wanting to see Obamacare repealed, but then admitted that at 24, she is "luckily" still on her parents' insurance plan. That drew some loud groans in the crowd, as that type of coverage was one of the features of the Affordable Care Act.


Say what you want about Obamacare, the quality of these political "commentators" is very low.

Her opinions are often misguided and she struggles to back them up in debate. She got wrecked on bill Maher. She just isn't knowledgeable enough to make her points.

If she wasn't so hot, she would be nothing.

if she wasn't a solid 9 you think she'd be anywhere close to as popular as she is?

Anybody who tans as much as she does (despite being a 9 anyway) and cakes herself with that much make up (even though she's naturally beautiful) is a birdbrain

Not gonna lie, that has a lot to do with it. She's really good with prepped material, but she's struggled in open debates.

Not sure of her point since she definitely has enough money to buy her own insurance. She's hot and not that smart when she tries to debate.

I think Social Security is a pretty awful government program, but I will collect it with no qualms, if available, when I'm 65.

I hate all of these political talking heads. The conservative goobers that drool over the attractive female ones are the worst. The fact that their thoughts get posted on here as if they warrant serious discussion is laughable.

Tommy Lahen is not very bright, has few original thoughts and simply spouts things that appear to have come from Facebook. If she weren't attractive, she would have no audience.

yes this was a hot button issue when Ayn Rand used Medicare

people who expect those who have ideological opposition to the system ignoring any potential benefit of that system (while being forced to live with the negative parts of the system) are irrational. Lahren is an idiot, but she's not wrong for living within the system that exists in reality

I wonder if she even knew that was a benefit of the ACA? Probably not.

But, if it makes more economic sense for her to stay on mommy and daddy's plan because that's what the government allows/mandates, I'm not going to blame HER for doing so. I don't even get the gripe here.

Sounds like she's happy to use it since it's available but still wants it gone. People do that all the time by taking advantage of a service that they don't agree should be provided by the government.

Of course not. It's called hot female privilege and it's real.

What's wrong with saying Obamacare sucks, cause it does.. I can respect dissent, esp if you benefit from what you are dissenting from. It's definitely more noble grounds IMO.

And? show me a bill or petition to get rid of VA disability and ill be the first one to sign it. no fricking way in hell im giving up the extra 15K per year i get while everyone else is leeching as well. This is a dumber gotcha than criticizing Trump for using legal tax breaks.
