Frankly, I hope that is a very bitter pill for them...
thoughts like the above are what is wrong with this nation. These people believed in this man, con or not. Attacking them for that belief makes no sense.

If anything, attack Trump for lying.

Trump's lying and general ignorance are atrocious, but his devotees are guilty of being idiots when presented with the evidence he's lying and still blindly accepting everything he does as wonderful! Karma is going to be a real biotch for these people, when they lose benefits and healthcare. The longer they linger in the "Valley of Denial", any sympathy and empathy I might have had for them, will morph into Schadenfreude!

I don't understand how anyone with half a brain could possibly think this would benefit them. Sorry, don't mean to insult anyone. This bill gives tax cuts to the rich and screws the rest of us.

Because... those lacking half their brain mass voted for Donald Trump. They will defend their moronic vote, even to the detriment of their own well-being and credibility.

You better be prepared to not be able to afford premiums when they increase 5-fold for people between 50-64. Are you prepared for $100k per year nursing home costs? Medicaid will no longer pay it so they will be kicked out. Are you prepared for the disabled no longer getting the care they need in order to fund tax breaks for the ultra rich? Its a mean, mean bill. Truly wicked.
