    Someone correct me if I’m wrong, but the 11 million losing medicaid is due to red states choosing to “unwind” it. It’s not really an economy thing so much as a deliberate asshole thing.

    Everything else is spot on though.

      Isn’t the child poverty part related to Republicans refusing to extend the better child tax credit?

      Well you know maybe people in November will think

      “I really want to hurt trans people, but I kinda like not dying in a diabetic coma. Hmm better vote D this time”

      I really don’t know what to say. All these people consistently voting against their own best interests. I don’t agree with the shits at Koch but I get why they do it, they want the money.
