Republican Senator John McCain just singlehandedly killed the repeal of Obamacare. Now it’s time for President Trump to act. It’s time for President Trump to expose McCain and the rest of Congress for the frauds and hypocrites they are. It’s time for two Executive Orders that have the power to change everything.
This is how President Trump makes "The House of Cards" collapse. This is how President Trump ends Obamacare once and for all.
Executive Order #1: President Trump should issue an immediate Executive Order forcing every member of Congress to use the same healthcare plan as the rest of us. Let Senator McCain come off his high horse and live under the rules of Obamacare. Make every member of Congress live by same rules as the rest of us.
I wonder if John McCain would have voted against the Obamacare repeal, if he had to live under the rules of Obamacare? I wonder how quick and successful his brain cancer surgery would have been, if he had to use the Obamacare plan. Or the VA system.
Would he have waited 6 months in line, like rest of us? Maybe a year. Of course, he’d probably be dead by then. That’s how the VA solved their money shortage a few years back. They put vets on waiting lists until they died. Problem solved. Why not make Senators wait on those same waiting lists?
Or would McCain have had a gigantic deductible (just like the rest of us)? Would he have had a $30,000 bill after surgery that insurance would not cover (just like the rest of us)?
Would McCain have even been allowed to have a surgery, or would a "Death Panel" advise no surgery for a 80 year old with advanced brain cancer? Let's find out.
President Trump should immediately use Executive Order to put every member of Congress in the exact same boat as rest of us. Let them pay for their own healthcare- just like the rest of us. Let’s see each member of Congress pay $2000 per month for health insurance that covers virtually nothing. That was what I was forced to pay after Obamacare passed. That’s what my insurance covered- nothing.
I don’t even have health insurance anymore. I was forced to switch to a Christian Health Sharing plan. Because $2000 per month was completely unaffordable. I’m betting Democrats would call me “rich.” And I could not pay the bill anymore, because of Obamacare. So, I left traditional insurance as of January 1st.
My predicament means no middle-class family in America that buys their own insurance can afford the bill. It’s no wonder an upscale couple jumped to their death in Manhattan on Friday. The 53-yr old husband was a chiropractor. They left behind two children. Their suicide note said they were in a financial death spiral. Thanks to Obamacare, so is every middle-class couple in America.
It’s time for Congress to feel our pain.
Executive Order #2. My gut instinct is usually on the money. I feel it in my bones. The Senators who voted against the repeal are corrupted, bribed, on the take. Senators and Congressmen are making an unimaginable fortune off of Obamacare. That’s why they are against the repeal. They don’t want to end the gravy train.
They want the system complex and expensive. They want government involved. They want taxpayer money wasted by the billions. That's how they milk the system. They all own stocks of medical companies, health insurance companies, pharmaceutical companies. I'm betting many actually own companies with government contracts that benefit from Obamacare. They put them in the names of their spouses, children, parents, siblings, childhood buddies. They own them in offshore accounts. The conflicts of interest are the size of Texas.
Obamacare is the best thing to ever happen to Senator Schumer, Senator McCain, Senator Collins, Senator Murkowski, Nevada Senator Heller. They’re all bums. They’re all thieves. They are all getting rich at our expense.
Wanna bet?
President Trump should issue an immediate Executive Order demanding disclosure of all financial interests and ownership in healthcare related companies or stock by every member of Congress- including all family members and offshore accounts. Failure to disclose will result in a long prison term.
Then we’ll find out why they voted against repeal. They are all on the gravy train.
Issue these two Presidential Executive Orders and the “House of Cards” will collapse. The scam will be revealed.
We’ve been robbed.
P.S. Throw in a third plank. Term Limits. Limit each member of Congress to two terms. One term in office and one term in prison.
Senators and Congressmen are making an unimaginable fortune off of Obamacare.
Spot on it’s why we have Obamacare deals must have been made before the printing of if.Now if Trump does cut the subsides it will fold no more commie care.
Excellent suggestions. Email them to the President.
Most of them are bought off by the insurance and healthcare industry that are making a fortune. I think all exemptions to Obamacare should be revoked. All subsidies should be stopped,
The other thing is blaming John McCain. Who's going to strip him of his committee positions? It's not gonna' happen. Isolate the very sick, bitter man. Why isn't the 'pub leadership getting Murkowski and Collins in line?
Great idea, but probably DOA.
McCain’s wife owns a Budweiser distributorship. Cash Money for healthcare, or anything else is not a problem. He just wanted to hurt Trump and those who voted for him. The rest of the USA is just going along for the ride.
They’re not good ideas, they are excellent ideas. The author hit the nail square on the head with his comments on McCain.
Food for thought except #1... me thinks congress makes law = which says who is /is not on OBOCare . I like #2 a lot.
Trump should.... work to defeat weakest links “R” senators .
Call them out individually and say he will work with those states to replace those 5 or 6 who broke their promises they ran on. Nothing scares them most than losing their election.
and
get with GOP heads and have those senators remove the “R” from their party affiliation.
Zactly. It is the mandate that drives this. What company would not want everyone mandated to buy their product/service? The health insurers could throw hundreds of millions at Wash DC.
I like #2. But I think #1 alone will be enough. Make them live by the same rules the rest of us are forced to live by and they’ll pass a bill by the end of August.
“Republican Senator John McCain just singlehandedly killed the repeal of Obamacare.”
Why are we giving a pass to Collins and Murkowski?
1100000000000% CORRECT!!!
All demonRATs and mcpain, murkuntsky, dawgbitchcollar, checkered shirt wearing, tennasssee senator, turncoat sonofacamel from vegas, and the lyingslutbitchwhore from West, by God, Virginia are ALL on the pad.
I may have missed a couple of scumbags, but you get the idea.
While reading page 15 of 44 of the 2014 filing, the third entry is for the Eranda Foundation.
According to DuckDuckGo search the name "Eranda Foundation", there is more to the McCain Life Story:
Sir Evelyn de Rothschild established the Foundation in 1967 and called it ERANDA. The name had been created by his father, Anthony de Rothschild...
John McCain is a man of the people....rich people.
Trump doesn’t like being mocked - even though McCain’s healthcare will never be rationed, let’s see how his colleagues like him when they are all put on Obamacare thanks to him.
POTUS, please do it!!
If President Trump, hopefully, does issue the 1st EO mentioned in the article, then all McCain will have for medical insurance is Medicare, Tricare for Life (which acts as the medigap insurance for retired military) and the VA. However, he does have his wife’s fortune to pay cash for his medical treatment, which nearly all of us don’t have.
The other one, who is also a RINO is up for reelection. He has never done anything for my area, unlike my Rep
Or is it that laws start in the House of Reps? I am quite sure it does not start in the Senate.
Medicare and Tricare for Life is what I have and I’ve never had a problem getting care for myself or my wife who was treated for lung cancer for 4 years before she died.
