David Brooks' Latest

NY Times: The Trump Elite. Like the Old Elite, but Worse! by David Brooks
He didn’t mind caving to the Freedom Caucus Wednesday night on policy because he doesn’t care about policy, just the publicity win.

Brooks hates Donald. That's perfectly clear he has always hated Donald. That said, he has it all wrong in his own way. The problem with Healthcare is that both the Dems. and the Republicans insist that so called Health Ins. Corps. be at the center of it, not people. They both have been more concerned about the profits and power of this Industry and its fellow travelers the AMA, Big Pharma and the Hospital Corps. Somewhere in all of this is the rest of us, but we don't seem to count. If any of the people deciding this issue had to live or die according to the results so far we would have had a Single payer system long ago. The sad truth is Obamacare does suck it just doesn't suck anywhere near as badly as what the GOP is proposing to replace it with. At this juncture considering what's in the WH and Congress, our only best hope is that these Knaves all fall into fighting among themselves and leave the rest of us alone.

My comment on the NYT website was similar - GOP, do what you do best, go back to renaming post offices.
