McConnell continues his blatant lies campaign by smearing more feces on kynect and the ACA. According to McConnell's chief propagandist, Allison Moore:
If Obamacare is repealed, Kentucky should decide for itself whether to keep Kynect or set up a different marketplace," McConnell campaign spokeswoman Allison Moore told WFPL.
"But Kentuckians shouldn't have been forced to lose the plans they had and liked, shouldn't have seen their premiums skyrocket, shouldn't have had their Medicare cut, and shouldn't have had their taxes raised because of President Obama and his friends in Washington forced it down their throats."
Meanwhile,
Joe Sonka scraps the feces off and sprays McConnell with copious amounts of bleach. To paraphrase, Kentucky could not possibly afford to set up kynect without the money from the federal government in the ACA. In the end, Kentucky would have a useless website without the money from the ACA.
McConnell knows this, but he is hoping that he will get away with the argument that all the good things in the ACA will be provided for by magic and not go away with repeal. The heavy lifting for defending kynect is left to Governor Beshear who said,
Eliminating ACA means that folks with pre-existing conditions will struggle to find coverage, young adults won't be able to stay on their parents' coverage, women won't be treated equally by insurers and federal subsidies for Kentuckians will end. Senator McConnell either doesn't understand what the ACA is, or is just trying to mislead Kentucky families for his political benefit at their expense.
Grimes, as predicted, has said nothing about McConnell's playing with feces.
