Default Trump could be the most honest president in modern history from the Washington Post.

Good read and a trigger for some folks. #Trump2020

I thought the WaPo was Fake News?

Honesty apparently is in the eye of the beholder.

Anything below plus 40 is a loss for the Dems.

Trump is more honest than any Democrat.

President Trump is breaking all the rules.

You are supposed to campaign, promise everybody everything, then forget about all of that bullshit the instant you take the oath of office.

You're just not supposed to actually keep campaign promises. It's Political heresy.

I don't think of healthcare as a big issue personally because my business pays for mine. As long as Business is good, it's a non issue.

Business wise, I think of it all the time because we furnish health insurance for our employees. Once again, as long as Business is good, it's a non issue.

Health insurance is now our second biggest expense after labor. But in a sense, my customers are paying the bill.

There is no fixing it. As long as insurance Companies, Doctors and Hospitols have to make money, it's going to be expensive.

The only question is who's going to pay. If there is "Medicare for All" ala Bernie Sanders, my taxes will go through the roof in order to help pay for all the people who can't afford anything. The men that work for me will be in the same boat, since they have great paying jobs.

Maybe it's a wash. I'm paying out the nose to the insurance company now. If the Dems get their way, I"ll be paying out the nose to the Government.

The key words are, I will still be paying.

You're probably right, there isn't any easy fix, at least. He however did promise cheaper & better health care coverage. Havent seen that yet. He hasn't fulfilled that promise.

I remember back in the day ( way back) when employers paid for health insurance and dental insurance. I did not pay anything. ***sigh*** Having good heath insurance is a major issue. I agree.

Polling.

Sample question to voters on health insurance:

"Is health insurance important to you?

Sample question on clean air:

"Is breathing air important to you?"

Poll results by they lamestream media pundits:

"Health insurance and clean air are important issues to the voters in the midterm elections."

It's a trumpy op-ed that happens to be in the Post. From a guy who has ignored or downplayed, every misstep trump has made.

trump has kept 14% of his promises.
Compromised on 7% of them.
Broken 8% of them.
Staled on 33% of them.
And 40% are in the works. Which means the 40% could end up being any of the categories.

Yep, a trumpy would think 14% kept promises makes him the most honest president in history.
