It's like the twilight zone. 6 years ago, FR was ablaze in outrage with Obamacare.

Now ironically 6 years later here government managed health care is okay because their pseudo-conservative candidate says it's alright.

Absolutely mind blowing.

You know, I'd find it a bit easier to understand -- if not accept -- if some of those people would say "look, it sounds really bad, and honestly, I don't like it. I think Trump's really wrong on this, but I think he's right enough on other issues that I'm going to continue supporting him."

I could at least respect that even if I didn't agree.

But what we get is this cult-like denial that there's anything to be concerned about at all. Along with attacks on Cruz, which are actually beside the point. Trump's statements shouldn't be any less bothersome even if Cruz is a complete moron.

There were people (Trump supporters, of course) on a previous thread on this topic who explicitly said that they would be OK with single-payer, as long as they trusted the person who was in charge of the plan.

It was, as you said, absolutely mind blowing. Just wait until the Orwellian response when Trump pivots (further back) to the center-left if he's nominated - "We've always been in support of socialist health care"
