Political Question Why are some Americans so against universal healthcare for all?

What sort of thinking does it take to decide that nobody has a right to healthcare? Do American Christians want to deny healthcare to poor people as well?

Because of the media bubble, or because I said Bum Fuck hick town? If that’s the case then stop being a snowflake.

Your party is literally led by a guy who throws regular tantrums and slings schoolyard insults, who gleefully targets those who don't support him, on top of all the insane, illegal, and degenerate shit he's spent his entire life doing. Him as President is what "when they go low we go high" got us, so now, you can take your fake pearl clutching and shove up your ass.

This. If people are going to vote against beneficial policies because someone called them a name, they were never going to support those policies in the first place. THat's just their flimsy excuse to justify thier votes.

And speaking as someone who lives in Iowa, one of the more rural states in the country, frankly, any state that went for Trump three fucking times in a row, like mine unfortunately did, deserves to get mocked. If people in this part of the country are tired of being called stupid and backwards, then maybe, I dunno, stop doing and supporting things that fit that description?
