Some ACA subsidies are set to expire soon — increasing insurance premiums by as much as 75%. Instead of extending them, the GOP gutted Medicaid — throwing 10 million off coverage and possibly causing the closure of many rural hospitals. Trump's "concept" of a health care plan.

Going after the homeless by labeling them mentally ill opens the door to go after anyone they declare mentally ill. On anxiety meds? Depression? Getting therapy? Gay (used to get considered a mental illness). How about Trump Derangement Syndrome? This whole thing scares me to death.
