Say this for the unindicted co-conspirator, he knows what buttons to push to get his deplorables in a froth. At his rally in Indiana Thursday night, he attacked Democrats over Medicare for All.
"They want to raid Medicare to pay for socialism," Trump trumpeted.
Remind us how Medicare is funded, Mr. Trump?
Then he gets in the racist part. "Somehow I don't see Indiana being the next Venezuela. That's what would happen too."
Yep, brown people who don't deserve it are going to steal from all you deserving heartland old white people. Who have socialized medicine. Which Republicans have been trying to destroy for decades.
The sad thing is, it works. The one age group that is consistently opposed to Medicare for All is the cohort that has socialized medicine. And it's all about those threats that Trump is invoking—they’re trying to take something away from deserving people to give it to those people. Like the ones in Venezuela. You know.
