Tell your Republican friends in the Senate you will veto this disastrous budget that cuts Medicare by $473 billion, Medicaid by $1 trillion and breaks the promises you made to the American people.

1. Bernie is so funny. Turd doesn't have friends.

He has frenemies.

2. Being Numbingly Consistent...

and well-researched, just doesn't make you 'popular' these days I guess...

3. It's Trump's budget

4. I can't argue on ANY statement

he has presented here. Not 1 lie. All facts. And if what he says is true, we're in for one hell of a shock when all the seniors (your mom and dad) will no longer be able to get Medicaid. Reality tells me that over 90% of us will run out of money before we die. Most of us don't have an excess of money saved for retirement, right? Knowing you'll run out of money, and with no Medicaid in place, what is going to happen to these people? My concern is why more of these so called "politicians" aren't speaking in favor killing this budget? Someone needs to address the elephant in the room. Oh That's right, Bernie is. But why no one else? It blows me away.

6. Dems must message that EVERYBODY will get old & 2/3s of Americans will need Mcaid nursing homes

It's not just the grandparents generation, it's everybody, all of us young, middle and old.. This is the biggest bulletin, the most universal argument for medicaid. And our Resistance legislators muff it every time.

If Dems do not make clear to the public that cuts in Medicaid will hurt almost every voter eventually, then they are
simply perpetuating the anti poor, anti elderly mythology that enables Republicans to skate on destroying our National Safety Net..

5. Excellent take down of Republicanomics & that Ted Cruz had to sit through it.
