As D. L. Hugley said "Trump voters hate black people more than they like their own feet" on the

on the issues of diabetes and what Trump voters voted for.

White House says diabetics don’t deserve health insurance

"SNIP...............



Donald Trump’s budget director specifically called out people suffering from diabetes as a group of Americans who do not deserve the protection of health insurance.

Mick Mulvaney, director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), weighed in on the issue at the Light Forum at Stanford University. He was asked if families should be denied medical care because they can’t afford it, a standard Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) had termed “the Jimmy Kimmel test,” after the late night comedian’s recent emotional call for improved health care.

Mulvaney said he believed in helping to provide “a safety net so that if you get cancer you don’t end up broke,” but separated those situations from others he termed “ordinary healthcare,” what he described as the heart of the debate.

He continued, “That doesn’t mean we should take care of the person who sits at home, eats poorly and gets diabetes. Is that the same thing as Jimmy Kimmel’s kid? I don’t think that it is.”

This up and coming 2018 campaign is going to need boots on the ground and making damn sure our Registered Democrats get their Hind Ends to the Polls. Until then,we have to keep pushing back. It was our Election to loose and we did. Nuf said.
