The real reasons why Trump wants to gut health care

Don't be fooled by the GOP's and Trump's song and dance.

Dear fellow MoveOn member,

Don’t be fooled by Donald Trump's and the GOP's song and dance about replacing the Affordable Care Act—also known as Obamacare.

Trump and the Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare. (They’ll never be able to replace it.)

In my latest video with MoveOn, I tackle the reasons why the "party of Trump" is bound and determined to pull the plug on health care for tens of millions of Americans. Please watch it now, and then share it with your family and friends.

(Not on Facebook? You can watch it on YouTube.)

Spoiler alert. Here’s what we’re in for if Republicans take away Obamacare:

• 32 million Americans will lose their health care coverage.
• Tens of thousands of Americans will die because they won’t get the medical care they need and deserve.
• Medicare will be in far worse shape.
• The rich will only get richer.

This. Is. Lunacy.

Eddie, it’s up to all of us to fight back.

Already, Republicans in Congress are feeling the heat from near-constant MoveOn member protests fighting to save the Affordable Care Act.

Help make sure that more of your family and friends tune in to this life-and-death struggle—and help keep the pressure on lawmakers—by watching and sharing my latest video right now.

Thanks for all you do.
