    “If Republicans want to join us in lowering costs for working families, they have the chance to do so. And if they do not come to the table, they will own the premium increases they cause."

    What a load of shit. Fat good it does to people who can’t afford healthcare who “owns” their misery: they’ll be the ones who are miserable, while the “owners” sit on their piles of cash and play politicians for a living…

      Democrats aren’t even capitalizing on it. Unless it’s hidden in the ads I’m blocking, I’m not seeing anything to show people that it’s Republicans behind it all. But I can point to a dozen locations that (re)print Trump’s unhinged rants on the subject.

        So we remind them. Preferably by fielding candidates that will actually fight for us, and aren’t afraid to point that fact out. Loudly.

        Building up a real base of support takes time. As in, 4-5 years worth of time. Might as well get started while people are pissed.
