    "The claim that people with ...(IACC) would have acquired these disabilities no matter what... is a 'pre-existing conditions' narrative. Eugenicists arguing that COVID-19 'only' kills the unhealthy, or that 'only' unhealthy Palestinians can starve, rely on the same magical thinking..."

  2. #Trump will replace #Obamacare with... a concept of a plan. Never mind that Obamacare is literally a plan created by the #heritagefoundation then vilified as #socialism because only 3 republicans would work with him, turning it into the weird Frankenstein that at least ended denial of coverage for #pre-existingconditions but if not for the #filibuster, it would have been a #publicoption that had the power to #negotiate down the #prices because economies of scale make that possible. Instead it was a handout to the #drugcompanies , and the best worst plan we could have. Trump just says its bad and has no plan to replace it with anything other than creating a #medical wild west that will let patients die. Don't believe me? that was standard practice prior to Obamacare.

  3. #Trump supported the #Republican #Congress’s effort to roll back most of Obamacare, including undoing some of the regulations for #PreexistingConditions & making major #cuts to #Medicaid. It failed because of #JohnMcCain.

    Trump dramatically cut funding for #enrollment outreach. He tried to introduce Medicaid work requirements for people covered by the #ACA’s expansion (but was stopped by the courts).
