You sure saw a different debate than I did.
Maybe you were watching with the sound off. Or maybe your ears were plugged up with Trump kool-aid. Trump talked about how well health care worked in Canada and also in Scotland. A Canadian, since naturalized, married into my family of US physicians. A great addition with a fine family back in Canada I've gotten to know a bit. Her parents died and her sister is probably dying now under Canadian health care and I've heard plenty of horror stories. I've also known some physicians who moved down here to escape it and heard their stories, too. The problems have been obvious to anyone paying attention for years. But Trump's crowd is so rich, they don't que up for the nationalized local docs, they just flit off to the Mayo clinic, etc. whenever they have a hangnail. And enjoy communing with the other elites while they're there. Plus, according to his doctor, Trump is so yugely healthy, that he can't share and compare lumbago stories with his friends.
