Last night, Trump lied to the American people over & over about issue after issue. #SOTU
THREAD. ⬇️
Trump & the GOP have waged all-out-war against health care for Americans, destroying the Affordable Care Act—which has expanded healthcare for millions, stripping pre-existing conditions from millions & weakening Medicaid & Medicare. #SOTU
.@HouseDemocrats passed critical legislation to bring down the price of prescription drugs so that Americans have access to these lifesaving drugs. Trump & Congressional GOP simply watch Americans suffer & do NOTHING to address the cruel rising costs of prescription drugs. #SOTU
Trump’s lies about #MedicareForAll are not just disrespectful to the millions of Americans who are at the mercy of for-profit insurers & Big Pharma—they’re blatant lies. #SOTU
Every other industrialized country in the world has universal healthcare for half the cost of what America spends—but Big Pharma & private Insurance just wants to keep the status quo so they can continue to put profits over patients. #SOTU
#MedicareForAll will give people freedom they don’t enjoy now—freedom to see a doc when they‘re sick, to go to any doc or hospital w/out surprise bills, the freedom to change jobs or start a new job w/out fear of losing coverage & the freedom to get healthy w/out going bankrupt.
Rush Limbaugh is a racist, a misogynist & a homophobe. He is unworthy of being recognized with our nation’s highest civilian honor. It is disgraceful for Trump to—yet again—lift someone whose entire career has been dedicated to bringing others down. #SOTU
All Trump has done this yr is abuse power to invite foreign interference into our elections, obstructed Congress every step of the way, ordered illegal & reckless military action that has endangered our people & peace & failed to act in any way to support working families. #SOTU
The GOP’s cruelty & disregard for the Constitution & basic moral values is stunning.
Congressional Republicans are apparently ready to wrap themselves around the finger of the President—regardless of the destruction it causes to our democracy & future. Shame on them. #SOTU
