Now, I talked to my constituents and there were last week, there were a couple of them that really stood out.
A woman named Robin in northern Arizona who's going to see her premiums go up from $250 a month to over a thousand.
And she said, you know, she's not looking for
a handout she's looking for a hand up she's looking for a little help and she also told me that this isn't about immigrants this is about her
You know, she's a fifth generation American, 60 years old on a fixed income who will not be able to afford health insurance.
And I imagine there are a million other people just like her that are gonna see these costs rise dramatically.
Don't let anybody, you know,
tell you or your listeners here that this is about undocumented people.
This is about the health care premiums that Americans are going to have to pay that they can't afford.
And it's good to see Marjorie Taylor Greene and other Republicans are starting to realize that they are in an untenable situation without a good plan.
Now, they do have a plan.
It's just a lousy plan.
Yeah, well, you know, you could have the debate in public.
I think that's fair.
We're having this right now.
You know, me being on your show and going on cable news is part of this debate and others.
That's fine.
I think the negotiations, though, when when it's the leadership of the Congress negotiating with the president, I do think that should be in private.
We shouldn't try to repeat the fiasco that you saw with President Zelensky in the Oval Office.
That's not the way any president should do a negotiation.
