The republican party just hates President Obama so much that instead of trying to improve his signature healthcare law they want to destroy it. Regardless of what we American citizens overwhelmingly want or need. It is as if we citizens are not part of the republican equation when deciding what to do with healthcare. I am totally pissed off at them for focusing their hatred at President Obama because he is not white while trying to deny health care access to millions of American citizens. Their logic is that government should not help it's citizens except in rare cases, like mostly if you are wealthy. Well I have had it with them and their philosophy of only helping the rich. We Americans deserve better than republicans who only want us to remain a majority ignorant and sick nation.
So as the senate goes about it's new and hopefully final effort to deprive 10's of millions of Americans of healthcare we already have right now, we must keep the pressure on those senators who have worked with the American people in the past so that they don't succumb to the wiles of republican party leadership. When trump was called the winner back in November 2016, I had all but given up that we Americans would even survive let alone still have a functioning democracy for the people. But I have seen a groundswell of activism unlike any so far in my recent memory and it has given me hope that we may just be able to not only survive but keep our democracy intact. With republican controlling all the legislative branch, the presidency and a majority conservative advantage on the supreme court all seemed hopeless.
Yet there are still a few decent folks left in the republican party that are not as zealous to destroy our democracy and they have made a stand like with the last healthcare vote in the senate. We need them to stick with us the American citizen to prevent this last gasp attempt to steal from the working middle poor and give to the wealthy. Enough of this and enough of republican politics but only if we keep our heads up and our spines straight. This will not be over until we see actual bipartisan attempts to fix the few problems healthcare does have and then that will be what is best for all of America.
