| I AM SO IMPRESSED!
He's doing everything he said he would do - within the first week! Just down to business straight away and I LOVE IT.
Now i'm in the midwest and he's exactly what everyone I associate with wants in a president so it's all rosy everything around here. I'm sure others don't see it that way.
Best part - he just signed the DAPL to be finished. GO TRUMP!!

Location: SW North Dakota | A lady that seems to have a good head on her shoulders, posted about a vote on healthcare that supposedly passed in the Senate 51-48... Pretty much made it sound like it would be impossible to ever recieve benefit from healthcare. Went on to say that Paul Ryan has chut his phones off due to the volume of callers.
My gut says it's just another scare tactic, weirdo and random anti-Trump post, but this lady is someone who I really enjoy and trust. Has anyone had time to fact check similar claims? Some of this stuff is flat scary and I hate feeling like I always have my head in the sand (which I do, mostly).

Location: Idaho | Now please don't burn me, I'm not saying I am not a Trump supporter as my boyfriend is in the military so whoever is in office, I want them to succeed.
A word on the wall, the wall is not going up or so I heard. They did a test on the wall, and built one to its exact specs. They gave some men some regular hand held tools, nothing special. They had to go over it, under it or through it. They got over it in less than 2 minutes, using a blanket. If order for this to succeed, the wall would have be heavily and successfully manned, and pray that there aren't any crooked guards that don't mind being paid off by the cartels. I believe Trump did say no more wall because of that. |

| I am trying to reserve judgment so far. I wish he would get to working with Congress on some of these things. I want to give the man a chance - but then he opens up his mouth. Who cares how many people were at the inauguration? Why is he spending time on this and ordering a massive investigation on voter fraud, it's water under the bridge at this point anyway. I agree with some and not with others which is the way of the world of course. I have very liberal friends though that think the sky is falling. They think he is acting like a dictator (and Obama didn't at times?) I have one friend who seriously is worried about not being able to Google things - she is absolutely not joking. Sigh. I get not everyone agrees but goodness people, we have to give him some real time. And time will tell if he will sink or swim. Okay, I just needed to get that out. |

Location: The best kept secret in TX | I have a friend who also voted for Trump but is scared because her employer only offers Obama Care. Her policy is getting canceled soon and her son is in the hospital and has been for months. He's currently in rehab/physical therapy learning to talk, walk, eat, etc. and when the insurance gets cut off she was informed by the billing department that she will be considered self pay. She then has to start paying out of pocket. They can't afford the cost and are in danger of loosing their spot in the PT department and losing the room they are in to other patients who are waiting who have insurance. They are scared as to what is going to happen when their policy is no longer valid and they cannot pay.
Does anyone have any insight on how the policies will either transfer to a different policy, or if these specific people will have to shop for healthcare? She has her entire family on her plan and has shopped. So far she can't afford insurance for anyone but herself.
Thoughts on transition of policies for healthcare?  |

Location: In the Hills of Texas | From everything that I have read, healthcare policies are set for this year. It would effect the 2018 policies if things get in place.
I would also like to know who actually has healthcare right not with Obamacare? Outrageous premiums and high deductibles is not healthcare....It is catastrophic medical insurance.
Here is part of the new plan to fix Obamacare.
"Republican leaders have indicated that they intend to replace the ACA in a piecemeal manner rather than in one fell swoop, and the Energy and Commerce hearings — and bills that will be introduced to accompany them — appear to focus on smaller-bore policy issues.
Zach Hunter, an Energy and Commerce spokesman, confirmed that hearings are planned but did not specify details.
“Next week, the committee will begin taking action on legislation to help rebuild our health-care system with thoughtful, step-by-step reforms in order to bring badly needed relief to patients and families across the country,” he said.
Rep. Greg Walden (R-Ore.), the Energy and Commerce chairman, said last week in a Politico interview that he would embark on a swift but careful mission to overhaul the ACA: “We need to work aggressively on the repairs to the individual market, to Obamacare. Some might call that replacement. I call that a rebuild. I call it repair.”

I am by no means a guru at this but I am self-employed and I didn't qualify through our state due to income. We have MNSURE, so I had to shop privately and bought insurance. I would assume your friend could do the same? |

This doesn't make any sense as it looks like it's the employer that is screwing her. I don't have answers but I can offer prayers it gets all sorted out. |

Yes she is more than welcome to shop for insurance herself. However, she has apparently called multiple places with no such luck to find something affordable. She would need to insure herself, her husband, and three children. The cheapest she's found I believe was around $500/Month. She says she can't afford that. She's got horses and a feed bill like the rest of us as well.
I was juyst curious if anyone had any insight as to what would happen when the policies run out.... |

We paid almost that just for me and a $6,000.00 deductible and the year before it was $900.00 a month with a lower deductible.

This is his 3rd day in office. He's been working non-stop. He will get to working with them.
I think his seemingly outrageous remarks are deliberate, intended to send the liberal media off on a feeding frenzy where they focus on ripping him apart, meanwhile while they chew on the rotting carcass like flies, he walks in the pantry and steals the cookies. It's a diversionary tactic. |
