Donald Trump appears poised to announce a two-year extension of Affordable Care Act subsidies, due to expire at the end of December, while setting new limits on who is eligible to receive the tax credits, according to reports.

Without an extension of Covid-19-era Obamacare subsidies, insurance premiums for nearly 22 million American citizens threaten to more than double early next year, a point made repeatedly by Democrats during the recent 43-day government shutdown, who refused to sign a stopgap spending bill that did not address the problem.

    Yes I’m unpleasant, uh huh. Remind me again who decided to stay with their bullshit again after two days?

    Oh yeah, that’s you.

    Who decided to start out again with insults. Oh yeah that’s you.

    Get a job, get a life, get fucked. Most importantly take the fuckin hint and leave me alone you goddamn crybaby.

      You fucking . . . - YOU replied to ME.

      Furthermore, YOU KEEP replying to me.

      And you keep making up fantastic reasons to be horrified.

      Seriously, when I try to engage with you, you go nuts. When I deliberately wind you up you demand “adult discourse.” What the fuck meds are you not taking and can you please take them? And then STOP replying? kthx. (I know, I know you can’t NOT reply. You have to.)

        Yeah because you were lying, we went over this.

        Absolutely, your power of observation didn’t fail you there.

        How so, you called me a bigot but can’t actually say why.

        Adult discourse would be along the lines of “sorry I was spreading batshit crazy easily disproved propaganda, my bad.” Instead of 30 + messages of personal attacks whole completely abandoning your point.

        Grow up, get a job, get a live, go away.

        As an aside, you know implying that I’ve not taken medicine is just medical based bigotry especially if you have no reason to believe I should be taking anything. Though it seems you said it to imply I was crazy which again is bigoted.

        Could you I dunno, stop being a bigoted little shit?

          Fuck off. Lying about what? (You will not answer.) Bigoted about what? (You will not answer.) Spreading what propaganda? (Not only no answer, just more crazed insults.)

          Grow up? Fuck. What are you, in your 20’s? Barely? Personal attacks? You goddamned moron, you wanna count them? If we’re even close to even I’ll be surprised. But I’ll spot you two: you’re an idiot and a lunatic.

          No reason to believe you should be taking anything? I’ve been reading the reasons for days. Please shut the fuck up, or at least fixate on some other poor asshole.

            Just reread the messages of you haven’t gotten that point yet.

            I’m well into my 40s but I do love an attempt at a backhanded comment. You might want to count them yourself before you make that challenge.

            Oh yeah? But you can’t remember what your upset about. Good job being wouldn’t inconsistent in your bullshit.

            I’m fixating on you? Dude there weren’t comments for two days and then you decided to harass me again. At least be honest if you’re going to be an idiot.

              Yeah, here in America we have something called “holidays” where people put down their phones for a minute. We just had one called “Thanksgiving”, so if you can’t figure out why someone would be offline for a day, think about that and maybe it’ll come to you.

              Again, for the 80th time, you replied to me. Howabout you put down the rectangle and let it go, huh? You’re allegedly old enough to know better.

              Good job being wouldn’t inconsistent in your bullshit.

              Couldn’t have said it better myself.

                Yeah that’s not an excuse. You claimed I’m fixated on you while the exact opposite is true. I didn’t reengage you, you re-engaged me after two days.

                Remarkably wrong.

                How’s that hole going, still digging to find the bottom huh?
