Beto: Let's Face It, It's 'Really Hard' Not To Consider All Trump Voters Racists
It's therefore probably quite unwise for prominent members of the party to insult all Trump backers like this. It's also probably unwise for them to nominate someone with far-left views, like taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants, but what do I know? Allahpundit also makes a point that immediately occurred to me, too:. . .Now to the thoughts of those O'Rourke calls "racists", namely most of us:
Leaving the Democrats . . . "After securing a job at a hospital, I watched ObamaCare tear through healthcare and then almost immediately watched as our pension benefits were frozen as a result of having to comply with new rules and regulations. My wife and I lost 3000 dollars a month in future retirement income as a result of her company having to reorganize, and my pension is a private plan. Not a single Republican voted for the ObamaCare scam. But hey, 70 million dollars later the hospital has EPIC. My Chart anyone? I understand the CEO of that company has a lot of ties to Obama.
"Hospitals now have departments of people working just to make sure all of the I’s are dotted and T’s crossed and the punctuation is correct just so we get paid for taking care of those on Medicare and Medicaid. I can imagine on the other end that the government bureaucracy has people just looking for mistakes and ways not to pay out. It is really mindboggling.
"I watched my father get piss-poor treatment at the VA hospital, waiting months to get appointments and then just handed more drugs. He struggled with issues from Agent Orange exposure in Vietnam. He had back surgery there without any physical therapy follow-up. He could not straighten out his back to lie down or stand up straight after the surgery. He died in 2011 after having to live and sleep in his easy chair for years due to the pain. I want to say he was taken care of for life as promised years before without sounding sarcastic. But I can’t.
"I watched as my mother walked away from the Democrats. She quoted Reagan…. they left her. She voted for President Trump." . . .
. . . . .
"But I am middle class. I have been given nothing by our government and have given too much to it. And it always wants more, telling me I have to pay my fair share. It is a sad state when you get to a point in life of maximum dollars earned that it is taken away by higher tax brackets and the loss of deductions.

My dad was a yellow dog Democrat. He just about disowned me when I volunteered for Reagan's 1966 campaign while a student at UCLA. So, I left the Democrats over 50 years ago before they had a chance to leave me.
