But the idea that Obamacare didn't solve the problem, this is going to be the Republican argument, by the way,
in next month when this is voted on.
And this is going to be the argument going forward for the next year.
Obamacare didn't work, so these subsidies are a bad idea.
We're against these subsidies.
We're not going to extend the subsidies.
We're not going to extend the plus-ups, so the additional subsidies.
Nobody, no ordinary person is going to be like, okay, so health insurance is really hard to afford.
And the Republicans are going to solve this by defunding the subsidies.
Like, that just makes no sense at all.
And and like just just for context here, you have this week on Sunday, we had Scott Besant, the Treasury secretary, and Kevin Hassett, the economic advisor.
They're on to represent the administration and they're asked, both of them.
What the hell is this thing that Trump is bleeding about?
Like we're going to give money directly to the people and defund like.
And neither one of them knows.
So they're like, is this the Republican position?
Like, no, they both like we don't know.
Hassett is like, yeah, no one's really discussed this in the Republican caucus, in the in the Senate or the House.
Like it's just and he says Trump is his word was brainstorming.
I mean, Tim, I used to call this shit posting, but apparently now it's brainstorming for the president of the United States to throw out a completely unformed idea on social media that he hasn't consulted with his own party about.
