And Nancy Pelosi went to a salon that was supposed to be shut down due to the coronavirus, and had her hair done, without a mask. It's like this everywhere that people have power.
Ah, good 'ol whataboutism.
It doesn't change the fact Trump is being administered antiviral cocktails that your doctors would not readily provide you. It doesn't change the fact that Trump has around the clock care that you would not get. Yet, he happily puts Americans at risk by holding rallies and fundraisers while not encouraging social distancing and face coverings.
The problem with America is we all aim for the lowest common denominator. Whereas we should all strive for the best.
If it weren't for Trump pressuring the FDA and the drug manufacturers, it wouldn't be close to approval now. Of course it will be available as soon as its approved and enough is manufactured.
And that is the Democrat's worst nightmare.
With no pandemic, this election is over!
That's why they want everyone locked down and the economy in freefall.
From us? You have affordable healthcare. Free or subsidized Obama care? What about those who don't qualify for free or subsidized premiums, those who couldn't get in the chaotic market place window? Those who have to pay fines for no insurance or on top of their premiums because their private or group insurance didnt meet Obamacare requirements.
Unless there is one in your state there is no penalty for not having health insurance, the federal mandate ended in 2019
ANY president, would have 10, drs, taking care of them.....not only Trump
Most Americans in a hospital with Covid or any other serious illness will have up to 10 docs or other specialized medical professionals treating them depending what their issues are.
Granted they wont be solely dedicated to you but you dont need them to be as they will be around regularly to check your status, order tests, etc.
You'll have a primary, a pulmonary, an infectious disease doc, maybe a cardiologist, possibly a physical therapist, respiratory therapist, etc. On top of that nurses round the clock.
That's why they want everyone locked down and the economy in freefall.
Hardly. Maybe Trump supporters think that. The economy (that Trump shutdown) is still in the dumpster. There's unchecked riots. Nothing being done on police reform (no, Biden is not defunding police, so don't go down that line of thought).
Roll back to 2019. Before coronavirus dominated every thought, this was what was on American minds:
Climate Change
Economic Inequality
Affordable college education
Affordable health care
Affordable drug prescriptions
Federal deficit
Illegal Immigration
Abortion
That's all on the table right now too. It is just that coronavirus and the economy are at the top. If coronavirus did magically "go away" - we'd still have this litany of issues to think about when voting for a President.
You forgot to mention that it's ALL GOVERNMENT RUN HEALTHCARE paid for by taxpayers.
I'm surprised that the trumpsters aren't swarming Walter Reed trying to break trump out and rescue him from the evil government doctors and nurses. I guess GOVERNMENT HEALTHCARE is good enough for trump but definitely not good enough for the average American.
I am sure that President Trump would PREFER to be treated by a PRIVATE doctor since he can afford it.
Where are you getting those numbers from ? The wife and I are in our 50's, make roughly two and a half times that amount, and our monthly premium for completely private insurance is $675, with a $5800 deductible.
it depends on where you live.
interstate competition is a significant component of actual health system reform.
It is going through trials, if it is effective it will be available to Covid-19 patients. Trump is bravely being a guinea pig. I'm not sure I would.
Trump is not bravely being anything. What choice does he have? People who are desperately ill try it all. He would be seriously ill if not worse had he not submitted to any and everything that the drug companies and doctors have available to throw at him. It doesn't take bravery to get on Covid cocktails and steroids so you can breathe. Anybody would do that. Unfortunately, most people who get seriously ill with Covid won't get that chance. And the over 200,000 who have died from it certainly didn't get that opportunity.
This just shows how much of a hypocrite the president is... he knowingly puts his supporters in dangerous situations and now that karma struck back, Trump has a team of 10 government paid doctors assigned to him, given treatments that aren’t even allowed to the public, so when you go out there maskless in a crowded Trump rally, remember you won’t get any of this.
I probably get better medical care than 90% of you, does that make me a bad guy?
