We've noted in posts yesterday and today that the regime of corrupt sociopath Donald "No Exoneration" Trump is using the Federal courts to try to eliminate the Affordable Care Act (ACA), thereby eliminating affordable health care to some 30 million Americans. In contrast, just as Trump is trying to gut the ACA, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and House Dems are rolling out a bill to strengthen the ACA -- or Obamacare -- by expanding subsidies and tax credits for the middle class.
The Trumpian malice and cruelty doesn't end with his action toward the ACA:
-- Billionaire Secretary of Education Betsy "DeVille" DeVos, sister of Blackwater mercenary thug and Russian whisperer Erik Prince, proposes eliminating all Federal funding for the Special Olympics ($17.6 million),
-- Dictator-loving Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced that the U.S. would expand its anti-abortion policies abroad, withholding funds for foreign NGOs that provide funding for women's reproductive services, endangering millions of women worldwide, and
-- After virtually ignoring our fellow Americans on Puerto Rico after his paper towel-throwing stupidity, Trump has promised not to give the hurricane-ravaged island one more cent, apparently upset that they haven't kissed his yuuuge ass sufficiently.These people are cruel, vindictive and without decency. So organize, resist, speak out, register and vote.

BONUS II: Regarding the first outrage above, the Washington Post reports that eliminating 5 trips by Trump to Mar-a-Lago would cover the cuts to the Special Olympics.

Hey, remember when Trump mocked the disable man in one of his speeches? Yeah, me too. So why are we surprised that his administration would embrace cutting funds for an organization that helps those with handicaps? And Betsy DeVos, the Ponzi Scheme Queen, who would happily defund any organization to provide more money for charter schools, which largely operate without oversight as moneymakers for their owners.
Every day and every way, Trump is showing his cruelty and disdain for anyone he deems as unfavorable. And anything of value that Obama established and supported is fair game.
I honestly am sickened and appalled.
