What a sick, sick system, this Obamacare trades health payments to insurance companies while screwing folks in need.

This is good.

Come on. It’s NOT like we have a majority in congress.
Ska-rew that...take the “sanctuary city” money and use it to build the wall.
Mick the dick.
How can Mr. Trump’s budget chief be offering Obamacare subsidy money when they are repealing Obamacare?!? Weird!
The cost of the friggin’ wall is no larger than a rounding eerror in the federal budget. FUrthermore, Illegals are costing us over $200 billion ANNUALLY.
