      I would be very surprised to find out that the majority of Medicaid recipients voted for Trump. But as long as the right people get hurt, you give zero fucks.

      You sound no different than MAGA.

        I would not be surprised, but it would be disappointing. I want to believe people are smarter than voting against their own interests. But I’ve been proven wrong in that so many times I don’t have any faith.

          47% of Medicaid recipients can’t even vote. People are lost in frustration and despair and in their cynicism losing sight of the bigger picture.

        If I had my way, those people would have affordable housing, public health care, and a fat ham for Christmas dinner. They get to have it THEIR way, and I don’t think it makes one the same as a right-wing dipshit to think that self-inflicted injury is very funny.

          I agree, but read the whole comment chain. It starts off with fuck boomers. When they’re corrected, well fuck the MAGA poor, they’re getting what they deserve.

          The entire context of the conversation is an article outlining all the people this will affect.

          And even in the MAGA households, do those kids deserve to lose healthcare because their parents are easily swayed by a hypocrite and professional con man?

          I shouldn’t have used shame, and I apologized to them for that. But their comment was still overlooking a lot of people that this will affect who did not vote for Trump.

        Most of them probably couldn’t be bothered to vote. So they’ll now deal with the consequences of their inaction.

      I shouldn’t have used shame. Family habit and I apologize.

      I get the cynicism. But 47% of the people on Medicaid are children. This will affect many more people than maga poor.
