I’m not saying the GOP won’t do it but getting mad before anything happens will create a avenue of attack for the GOP or make you look dumb when it doesn’t happen.

If the left gets in the habit of calling foul before anything is done when the actual bad news hits it will be less impactful.

Normally I would say let it be but with how much the GOP depend on voters in their party that benefit from Medicaid they are actively trying to soften the blow for when they actually do it.

This issue is a powder keg and if we flinch before it goes off we put ourselves in the blast zone.

    I’m currently not of the mindset that the left and the right can continue to have democratic respect for each other. We are at war. Power no longer is not about legitimacy, but about victory. Norms and rule of law are clearly over. An insurrectionist isn’t even constitutionally allowed to be president. Nothing is sacred.

    So it’s not really about if they have the power or not, we need to be focused on getting power back and preventing mass death and slavery of the working class. And we won’t get that power back via the system as it exists, because it’s been captured.
