The White House has shown little urgency in extending the subsidies until shutdown ends.

Republicans are barreling toward the upcoming Obamacare enrollment period without a unified plan to address the sticker shock that millions of Americans are likely to experience due to the expiration of key federal subsidies.

The lack of direction comes from the top, with Trump not providing clear guidance to his party on how he wants to deal with the expiring subsidies that could result in dramatic out-of-pocket price hikes for enrollees.

    Don’t be bothering him with such petty things, don’t you know he has SOOOOOO much on his plate with the peace talks and whitehouse renovations. Why do you bother an old, troubled mind with such terrible things?

    /s for those that need it

      QANON started as a joke on the Internet. Yes, the sarcasm tag is needed even when it’s obvious to some.

      I saw that all trade talks are off with Canada. So that will free up at least 15 seconds per day.
