Trump warns in Missouri that "if Democrats gain power on Tuesday, one of their very first projects will be a socialist takeover of health care... The Democrat plan would obliterate Obamacare."

7:36 AM - Nov 6, 2018

Now the orange one is trying to tell his followers that he will be the defender of Obamacare??????

[ginnyinWI]

1. LOLOL.

He's trying every little trick he can think of. Rat backed into a corner with his carpetbag of little tricks.

[Baitball Blogger]

2. Personally, I think there are psychotropic properties in his suntan lotion.

He's absorbing the crazy through his enlarged pores.

[Mersky]

24. Hahaha. That would explain a LOT!

Lol. Psychotropic....Big pores. So true.

[treestar]

3. So he can't veto it?

Surely he is not aware that there could in theory be a veto-proof majority.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

4. LOL, that's frigging hilarious

It's Obamacare. People named after a Democrat president. He acts like Obamacare was brought to us by the Republicans. No, the Republicans tried to get rid of Obamacare well over 60 times now. If anyone is going to obliterate Obamacare, it's the Republicans. Democrats will try to strengthen the program and make it better.

6. And he's telling members of his cult that they might lose their Obamacare because. . .

DEMOCRATS!!!!!

[LiberalArkie]

15. The funny thing is that if the R's hadn't started calling the ACA "Obamacare", they may have been

to get rid of it.

[Harker]

23. That's right...

They hissed the word and sneered when they said it.

I loved that President Obama embraced "Obamacare", and owned it!

[grantcart]

5. We entered the Twilight Zone 2 years ago. We are about to leave it.

[Arkansas Granny]

7. I truly hope you're right, but I'm not going to get my hopes too high until all votes are counted.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

8. slings shit everywhere hoping it sticks somewhere

TrumPutin is pushing the GOPer plan to its extremes -- pander to every crazy faction out there without worrying about insulting any previously pandered-to crazy faction.

Now he's calling on MAGAts to protect themselves from Democrats taking Democratic Party accomplishments away from Republicans. Since MAGAts are cultists, it is probably hopeless to explain to them that they can short-cut this threat by simply voting for Democrats to continue giving them Democratic Party programs to improve their lives.

[Takket]

9. they're coming after your Obamacare! ROFL

[Arkansas Granny]

10. I'm waiting to see the Trumper signs saying "Hands off my Obamacare".

[AllaN01Bear]

11. we brought you obama care

&app=desktop

[elmac]

12. he is a con artist who stayed in biz by lying

he should have been in prison years ago but the wealthy have little to fear in a capitalistic society.

[EleanorR]

13. doesn't take much to keep his feeble-minded followers toeing the line nt

[watoos]

14. What's with Josh Marshall today?

First an article about Pence and now this.

C'mon Josh, I like TPM but stop putting negativity into the universe, just ride that huge blue wave.

[Arkansas Granny]

21. I would call this "Comedy Gold" instead of negativity.

[Owens]

16. Gaslighting 101

Telling Republicans that Democrats are going to destroy Obamacare when they have been doing themselves. Secondly, isn't that what Republicans want to do? Destroy Obamacare so they really should vote for Democrats?

[jcgoldie]

17. wow

[bdamomma]

18. oh he is really

loosing it, stupid ass. Maybe he will shoot a PE.

[3catwoman3]

32. Or a big old piece of atherosclerotic plaque...

...will break loose and lodge somewhere important.

[BumRushDaShow]

19. "The Democrat plan would obliterate Obamacare."

Surprised that they held off that long. It took them 8 years to finally claim as their own, what was pretty much a Heritage Foundation plan that none of them voted for because the "Kenyan Muslin (sic) socialist fascist commie terrorist n-word" spearheaded it while they tried to repeal it upwards of 70 times, defund it, and kill it with a thousand cuts, including shortening the sign-up period and refusing to promote it.

[FakeNoose]

20. Ya know, they can really stop calling it "Obamacare" now

The GOP's stupid name-calling ploy didn't work. And now it has backfired on them, so why don't they just call it the ACA? The Trumpies are getting confused all over again.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

22. Well, they screwed that up because most Americans know it as Obamacare now.

ACA is not nearly as well known. Republicans tried to tie it to Obama because they thought it would either make the plan sound bad or make Obama sound bad, but people generally like it better than the alternative of having nothing, which is the Republican offering. It didn't have the affect they were looking for there.

[struggle4progress]

25. Prisencolinensinainciuso!

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

26. This is just another example of how he says

or tweets anything that comes into his head. He has no filter. He believes that anything he says is true, or at least until he says something else. He literally cannot remember what he says or tweets from minute to minute.

[Enoki33]

27. Knew the liar was getting more and more desperate because, as Roger Stone

might say, his time in the barrel is coming, but this is so publicly revealing his contempt for people’s intelligence it is indeed Twilight Zone territory.

[MontanaMama]

28. The Koolaid he's handing out today changed flavors!

The cult will drink it up like they’re in a desert.n

[B Stieg]

29. The Trump playbook!

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Sound familiar?
Joseph Goebbels said it. And we all know who he worked for...

VOTE NOW!!!

[BlancheSplanchnik]

30. The PROJECTION!

It makes me tear my hair out!

[catbyte]

31. Wow. He reeks of desperation and flop sweat.

[dalton99a]
