"SNIP..........


The analysis of new figures from the government found that 7.3 million of the 8.8 million people signed up thus far for next year come from states Trump won.

The four states with the highest number of sign-ups were all Trump states. They are Florida, Texas, North Carolina and Georgia, accounting for nearly 3.9 million customers.

The AP's analysis points to a pattern of benefits from the health law in states the president won.

That'll be in the background when Congress returns in January to another installment of the long-running health care debate.

They will be surprised to find out they've been duped again when they have their internet rates raised $50 -$75 bucks a month, and the interest rates jump up from what they've done raising their payments another 50-100 bucks, and any rural care has been closed down and they have to travel another 50+ miles to get treated, or they lost many deductions especially when they've had a disaster costing them thousands. Their will be millions left out in the cold that don't realize it yet, and blindly believe the propaganda spewed out it'll be great, and a big Christmas present for them, when reality sets in , and they learn the wealthy are drowning in windfall profits making millions a year forever, and what little they got disappears. the worse will be the recession or worse this will create. Don't believe it just look up in 1921 Harding did the same thing and it caused the great depression, 1982 and 1986 Reagon did the same thing and 87 the worse stock market drop in our history, then go to 2001 when w Bush did it, and you should remember the pain that caused, and they're doing it again. Its just another reason to vote for only Democrats to reverse this ASAP or we will be in a world of hurt, especially after trump creates a war for another diversion costing us trillions more and driving interest rates up even higher. Is this Putin's revenge? Looks like to me. Trump can hurt you anywhere.
