He certainly is what he eats in this instance.

Medicare isn't what broke the country, it was another republican with big and really bad ideas.

Do they not read polls? Do they not realize that their base is aging, requiring intensive medical care?

Lindsey's LGBT issues aside, does he not understand the implications of cutting Medicare?

These people baffle me.

These are incredibly popular programs that proves government can work, and well. They prove the GOP's entire philosophy is crap. I get why Republicans want to go after these programs. Now, why so many Dems seem willing to aid them...

I don't want to make a caricature of him or make fun of whatever life he has, but this wording of his is ridiculous.
