    Trolling the left is Trump's greatest talent.

    It's nothing out of the ordinary. There will always be people that hate for no reason and those people so lazy that they would rather see it all burn then for others to succeed and proper.. Misery loves company!

    Oh and they are the first ones to play the race card while displaying their own racisms :)

    No I didn't, I proved my point that having health coverage or insurance, is not the same as having health care. Read the sentences around the one you think agrees with you next time.The deductibles went up due to the mandatory policy provision in Obamacare. I had never seen or heard of rate jumps like this under a private health care system. This is what happens when the government gets involved with incentives. The price of education similarly priced itself out of any reasonable market value after government intervention through incentive. In this instance, people were forced to buy a policy with a bunch of crap they didn't need, and since they were forced to buy it, there was no reason to keep deductibles low.

    You went to the ER for a sprained ankle?!! Did you think you were dying? I don't think that is how much an ER visit costs, I assumed you were a sane human being and went to your GP with what is obviously a non emergency. Do you go to the ER for the flu as well? Are you that guy? If you are, just know that there is no cure for the flu and nothing your ER can do for you unless you are dying. Sometimes they give you antibiotics to shut you up, even though the flu is a virus and antibiotics do nothing to help. Now they mostly give you tamaflu which is a bunch of nothing designed to get you out of the office feeling like you were heard. Seriously read the studies, "may decrease the duration of your flu by 24 hours"...may...by 24 hours. Similarly, a sprained ankle is not a life threatening emergency, but a minor annoyance that I have seen high school cheerleaders just sort of walk off for the most part. Hardly an emergency. Abuse of the ER policy that does not allow the hospital to turn a patient away no mater how frivolous their symptoms, is part of why health care is so expensive for those of us that pay for it. So before you go next time, just remember the "E" in ER stands for "emergency".

    Even as recently as a few months ago, I would have agreed with you. I really think that there are some die hard true believers out there though. I recently heard someone say that the progressives not only live in a bubble, but see themselves as the moderates within that bubble and society.

    If you look at their actions through that lens, they do make more sense. Not a lot of sense maybe, but more. Like how can they simultaneously seek to censor conservatives off social media, while justifying actually breaking the law with things like calls to violence and so forth, on social media? Because they actually believe that everyone that disagrees with them is doing so because they have the worst possible motive. That is why they always talk of dog whistles and act like they have secret progressive decoder rings, because they can see your motivation. If their opinions are what is good, fair, and nice, and you are against their opinions, you can only be a bad guy. What other reason could you have? If you endorse drilling, it is not for energy independence or to create jobs, it is because you are a fascist dick that wants to destroy the duck-billed platypus habitat or whatever, for your corporate masters.
    Similarly, if you are against identity politics then you are against the modern solution to past injustices. There is only one reason to do that because we live in a binary universe. You are a 1 or a 0. Ergo, you hate black, trans, gay, whatever whatever. If you won't supplicate, then you must want to dominate. They have spent the last 30 years trying to paint themselves as the party that cares about oppressed people, in a binary universe what does that make the other parties?

    100% spot on!

    It's literally a religion, at this point. A fundamentalist religion. ALL of the mechanics are identical.

    Have you seen the hate-mongering ideologues pouring out of universities and colleges these past few years?

    If your kids are malformed or lack self worth, they're prime targets for proselytising faculties and institutions.

    Don't you leftists ever get tired of this same old nonsense??

    America is supposed to be about liberty. I don't care what color you are, or what religion you adhere to...

    What I do care about is keeping the government out of my life, and out of my business.

    The United States Constitution was designed to protect the citizenry FROM GOVERNMENT...

    Knock it off... those of us who want to live in freedom are pretty damn sick of your fool act.

    I can only assume you have failed so much in life that you don’t have any retirement/savings accounts, real estate or a business...........

    Given he's not the one who killed Merka, that's more fantasy than reality.

    You're correct.
    And the squad is nobody's. They have no real clout. Not many care what they say. They hold no real power.
    They get the spotlight because RW is putting them in the spotlight. But most don't care an iota what they say.
    I know I don't. They have no power, no clout.

    Better yet, Trump has pushed this onto the mainstream media cycle for everyone to see.

    AKA: A House member sitting on the Foreign Affairs Committee who can't bring herself to disavow Al Qaeda.

    Trump couldn't ask for a better perfect storm to take advantage of.
    The pure raw footage of these radical women provides plenty of protection as well.
    Trump can simply sit back and quote the absurdities coming out of their mouths.
    Worth millions in terms of advertising dollar equivalency.

    You need to find someone else to troll who will put up with your personal attacks.

    He may be trying-to-do- that because historically he's that-kinda-guy. When he gets upset, he goes off his rocker.

    This guy has been narcissistic since birth and his entire life is one of demonstrated and entrenched narcissism ...

    Social Democracy means trickle-up Healthcare and a Post-secondary Education. (And it is off the latter that you could use most!)

    Right, the present unacceptable Income Disparity in America is the fault of the Democrats?!? (It was Reckless Ronnie and Donald Dork who struck down upper-income tax rates!)

    What planet do you live on ... ?

    Telling minorities to go back to where they came from is an old, old racist trope. I used to hear that on the playground decades ago. This is esp. true if the minority you're saying it to was born here. And it wasn't just Democrats calling Trump out on this.

    It is based on what they hear and read. If you tell a lie enough times, people witll view it as the truth.

    He suggested people that don't like this country leave it. Nothing racist involved at all.

    They are not running for office right now so it is inconclusive to try and think that it matters.
