No way he ran on healthcare and childcare. Maybe im dumb and dont remember, but maga is very much against aca and medicare for all, and any kind of socialized service.

If you were saying he ran on "no new wars", sure.

    He ran on "LET ME TELL YOU, IT'S GREAT, VERY GREAT, IT'S THE BEST, IT'S VERY BEST, YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE, THE FAKE NEWS MEDIA, EVERYTHING FAKE, I'M AWESOME, THE MOST AWESOME, THE BEST MOST AWESOME, MANY PEOPLE SAY"

    And people literally fell for that shit. That was his whole program.

    Trump ran on "It sucks now, and I have a concept of a plan for the best healthcare ever".

    Trump spoke towards a truth we all feel about how bad it is, then lied about the cause and what he was going to do, democrats told us better things aren't possible, america is already great, but if you vote for us, we miiight consider doing .01% less genocide.

    People fell for it because the alternative "Shut the fuck up and vote for tax cuts for small business owners and The Most Lethal Military Evar!" is too depressing.

    How much did you pay in 2015 though?

    How much of your increased payment is because of Trump et al?

    The Trump admin, for both terms, has attacked the ACA causing the prices to skyrocket by making it harder to get coverage.

    This is by design.

    Premiums are up as much as 150% in places.

    It’s wild you’re saying he didn’t do anything to the prices but point at presidents who attempted to sure it up.

    The ACA sucks relative to the idea of Medicare for all BUT it’s not the reason your insurance costs so much.

    My point is I really doubt he ran on a pro-healthcare pro-daycare platform. I could be wrong, but I would be shocked to learn otherwise.
