Trump scrapped a proposed $2 drug program for seniors. But why?

[Say it aint so]

I've listened to Trump.

He is very compassionate and grandfatherly.

No, the liberal MSM won't change my mind because I won't drink their Kool Aid.

thanks, but no thanks!

Trump is a lot of things, but compassionate isn't even in the stratosphere.

This administration is only 30 days old.

It’s been a fortnight, literally.

Who should I believe?

My own conscience and mind or the liberal media?

The liberal media is issuing executive orders and Trump is unable to stop them? That's a pretty significant misunderstanding of the situation here which seriously calls into question wherever this post is getting its information.

Did you get that from him saying Americans will feel some pain from his economic policies?

“And we’ll be doing, very importantly, steel, and we’ll also be doing chips and things associated with chips.”

So, dip too.

Good God man! Let me guess, does your car also gets 200 rods to the gill?

I disagree - what they want to do is privatize them and siphon the equity out of accounts into their pockets.

Well, a lot of the so-called Libertarians just want to end them altogether. The thinking is, if you can't afford to save for retirement, you deserve to die on the streets. If you can't afford medial care, you deserve to die. It's extreme, but the extremists are in charge.

Why would you to rescind government trying to make pharmaceutical deductibles cheaper?

Doesn't answer my question.

This is more fear mongering. Everything Trump is doing is causing the left in this country to panic. And the media isn't helping by spreading mis or dis information. And far too many people are predisposed to such fear that everything is a crisis and is going to cause such horrible consequences. Even if it's not true.

Trump doesn't help. He's tells his people , when he on Twitter. And The Truth forum and TV.

Perhaps there are consequences for falling for the idea that mainstream news is liberal lies.

Not all, but some certainly is.

Nothing's perfect, but which category of news sources is the one that is hiding the fact that Trump thinks his policies will hurt the economy?
Hint - it isn't the mainstream ones.

Whatever. I trust Trump over someone’s opinion.

Do you really think it's wise to trust someone who has been proven guilty of fraud many times over? And, remember, I'm not talking just the 34 felony convictions, but many other examples of fraud, including the overvaluing his properties, Trump University, and more besides.

At some point, a grifter has to be seen for what he is....no matter how good what he says may sound.

-- A2SG, truly mystifies me how many people can so ardently trust this con man.....
