"I can resist anything but temptation."


Trump is a disease, and it's contagious:

“That line is so indefensible,” [Rep. Raul] Labrador [R-ID] replied. “Nobody dies because they don’t have access to health care.”

He might have gotten away with "because they don't have access to health insurance;" but that's not what he said.

Just like Trump didn't say America's health care system is the worst because of Obamacare; he said Australia's health care system is better. and everbody else's is, too.  Full stop.  End of sentence.  Of course, almost every country in the industrialized world (and some not) has single-payer healthcare.

And (I shouldn't even have to say it) people do die whose only access to healthcare is the emergency room.

Strange days indeed.
