1. I usually don't bite on the conservative three-piece trolls but it's Saturday and I'm feeling frisky. First, let me say right off that if @BretStephensNYT is a member of the @GOP and the @GOP is a white supremacist group then Bret is a white supremacist. It's elementary logic.
2. Bret uses the old standards in an attempt to portray the Democratic candidates as a fringe group of pro-immigrant lefties that has been the GOP play book since the fraud of conservatism was laid bare in the obscene Trump tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires.
3. Bret sets the terms of his own debate that makes it impossible for him to lose. This isn't about immigrants and it isn't about insurance. First on insurance single payer universal coverage is not some fanciful bizarre world that nobody thinks could work.
4. Some form of universal coverage exists in almost every developed country but ours. On immigrants, a stranger in a universal health country gets treated for free or low cost be they someone who just
5. swam the Rio Grande or landed a Peterborough in their Gulf Stream with a tummy ache. The issue isn't who is treated, it's who pays and and how much.
What's coming and what the GOP Kleptocrats fear most is their actual tax rates are going up.

8. The day of the John Birch Society is over folks. The Kochs and their like are going to start paying and paying big. And when you get sick you can get treated and the bill is paid. When the Democrats wake up to the fact that the populist mob that flocked
9. to Trump can be easily turned on the real Billionaires they will see how easy it is to have all the things that the tax system of the 50s brought like bridges, airports, Interstates and schools. We are going back in time and the magic word is taxes.
10. And the bogey man is not the poor immigrant. It's David and Charles Koch. When I saw them stand aside and let a populist seize the GOP I cheered because I knew we can now get it done. We need to portray the super rich tax rip off as a theft of voters and their children's
