Middle class and lower middle class republican tradition


Obama threw me off my health insurance. Trump gave me a tax cut. Rs are better for my economic interests, and I'm far from an OT baller. Simple arithmetic.

God, abortion, guns, race, gender, immigration and fear of the brown man is popular right now, etc etc. Works every election.



The Democrats are the ones who have been hammering culture war issues the past few election cycles. I think you have it backwards - if voters are thinking about the economy a red wave is likely. Middle class incomes stagnated under Obama. We didn't get any of the bailout and stimulus money. We just got worse health insurance at a higher price.

Never go full retard.

Too late.

By the way, your party thinks your gender and skin tone is demonic. But yay...you can high five your hipster buddies and celebrate being a virtue signaling prog.

It's going great with the tax repeal

Too bad McCain sank the full repeal or did you forget that also?

Use your fricking head and come up with the answer.

Got to have the votes in the Senate.

Republicans never had a real majority in Senate because you can't count on Collins, Murkowski, McCain.

Healthcare fix is hard work and will piss off lots of people.

you know, illegal immigrants and healthcare are very related and it has nothing to do with race

LINK
quote:

In 2016, nearly 20 million or one in four children had at least one immigrant parent, and nearly nine in ten (89% or 17.7 million) of these children were citizens (Figure 1).


quote:

Over 8 million citizen children with an immigrant parent have Medicaid/CHIP coverage. Medicaid and CHIP provide these children access to preventive and primary care as well as care for chronic conditions

so 40% of children born to immigrant parents are on Medicaid, and many undocumented immigrants are abusing ERs

that's not going to raise tax bills or healthcare costs. it's all just racism

Why do I think it's okay to vote to take someone else's money just because I know I don't make that much, so it won't affect me? Seems like something a shitty person would do.

And funny how GOP tax laws made my check go up even though I'm not the top 0.01%. Crazy that a libtard might be misinformed.

It's the exact same line all the hip SJW's have been posting for the last couple of days...

Daily Kos? Reddit?

I abstained in 2016. Funny how you ASSume anyone who doesn't blindly support the interests of Goldman Sachs must be a Trumpkin.

Also doesn't change the fact that if you had your way policy wise, I would be bringing home a smaller paycheck, and if it weren't for the Democrats, healthcare would be less of a mess than it is now.

Everyone making less than 157k got a tax cut under Trump. I got a small increase but it's ok if it stimulates the economy.

The media you consume downplayed this success of the Trump admin so much that you didn't even know it happened. Think about that.
