BUDGET/CHUCK SCHUMER/HEALTHCARE/NANCY PELOSI/PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS/SOTU/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT: “Now, if President Trump’s State of the Union was a manifesto of mistruths, as Speaker Pelosi so aptly put it, President Trump’s latest budget proposal is a blueprint for destroying America. One word, nine letters, sums up the president’s budget, H-Y-P-O-C-R-I-S-Y, hypocrisy. In his State of the Union Address, President Trump talked at length about healthcare, claiming amazingly at one point he will fight to protect patients with preexisting conditions.
We know the president just lies, lies about protecting healthcare and his budget is proof. If the state of the union is what he says, the budget is what he does and the two are from different planets. I like to say the budget is the truth serum and now the American people can clearly see that he is a fraud who is not fighting for them. Under Donald Trump, the average American is struggling to keep up and his budget would make life harder for them. President Trump likes to talk about the forgotten man and woman.”
