Of course it does. Greivance and "owning libs" is pretty much the entire Trump movement. Poor governance isn't really a sticking point or a priority. 

Poor governance by design is the Republican way

The fact that you think this is why Trump won is awesome. As long as idiots like you are the most vocal of the Democrats, it will ensure your party loses more voters.

 

The self proclaimed morally and intellectually superior ones is very telling.

FTFY: Don't forget that beautiful, low-cost ACA replacement for which they will have the concepts of a plan in two weeks...

I read recently that Medicaid has an asset requirement before you can qualify.  In other words, you can't have any assets other than your home and still qualify.

 

The ACA has an income requirement, but no asset requirement, in order to qualify for subsidies.  As a result, some people with assets are retiring early.  They show no actual income, qualify for ACA subsidies and spend down their bank account to live on.  All prior to qualifing for medicare.  In other words, the ACA becomes a bridge to medicare sometime for people who have financial assets.  No idea how widespread this is.

Tried to go through this with my parents many years ago, so remember a bit from it. There was also a strategy around placing assets into a trust for a few years to get a jump on the requirements.

Illegals pay into social security and receive no benefits.

End tax on tips reduces money into the social security trust fund.

No tax on social security benefits hurts the trust fund.

 

Talk to Trump about his plans that you voted for.

Heaven forbid any American get decent health coverage at a reasonable rate. What's really cool, the tax code is set to where it's so easy to manipulate long term capital gains down you can draw down on your savings and still get a maximum subsidy which also puts you at 93/7 of what you pay vs 85/15. on a normal silver plan.
