Trump voter can't wait to lose her health insurance

http://www.politicalgarbagechute.com/republican-libtards-health-insurance/

CEDAR PINES, TENNESSEE — If there is one thing that Trump supporter Josephine Almonds understands, it’s that government control of healthcare is such a dangerous, un-American proposition. That belief, Almonds says makes her very happy that the Trump administration’s replacement for the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare as it’s more popularly referred to, could end up making her unable to get insurance because Josephine says as long as she gets to “stick it to the libtards,” she doesn’t mind not being able to see a doctor or get medicine.

“I have a pre-existing condition,” Almonds told us in an interview, “or at least I will under the AHCA. Apparently being sexually assaulted is an allowable pre-existing condition for insurance carriers to deny coverage over in Trump’s law, and technically since my husband is also my first cousin, that might constitute some kind of sex crime. But the bottom line to me is that if I get to stick to the libtards, I can put up with being sicker than ever.”

Just because we're right doesn't mean we're going to win.

(I should have read farther -- I see it's satire, but my comment still stands: We're up against malice and stupidity in numbers that really can win out over reason)

The Onion has just about been put out of business, and I have to search to see if an article is from Borowitz...

of the first order. Their hate and racism is palpable. May she get what she's looking for...more sickness and....about 3 hrs down the road from pulaski, Tn. Shows how widespread the ignorance, raging, racist white hate and stupidity that is the predominate driving force behind the hate, NOW, in this country. I am around them everyday and the smug arrogance oozing from their hateful minds and bodies is disgusting and makes me feel very angry at their inability to understand, they WILL fall one day and I hope I am around to see it.

It's true that it's getting harder to tell these days, but if you go to the link the site is clearly identified as satire.

No, you really can't tell satire from the real thing anymore.

The world has lost its collective mind.
