'These Republican numbers are nuts': Internet stunned by MAGA support for key Dem position - Rawstory

With the government shutdown fight over extending Obamacare subsidies reaching its third day on Friday, critics were left stunned after a new poll found that Republican voters were overwhelmingly in support of the Democrat-backed measure, despite GOP lawmakers taking a hardline stance against it.

“The Republican numbers here are nuts,” wrote Jordan Weissmann, writer and editor at The Argument, in an online post on X Friday.

Conducted by the nonprofit health policy organization the Kaiser Family Foundation, the poll found that 59% of Republican voters were in favor of extending Obamacare subsidies, the core issue at stake among Congress as its members fail to reach an agreement.

uhhh.. NO DUH. That's because, quiet as it's kept, there are probably more MAGAS on OBAMAcare, than anyone else:

ACA enrollment surged in red states this year - Axios (dated Jan 2024) A record 21.3 million people signed up for health insurance on the Affordable Care Act marketplaces this year, with the largest enrollment increases tallied in red states.

Why it matters: The 30.7% annual increase in ACA sign-ups comes as... Trump's renewed calls for repeal have again raised doubts about the law's future.

2. This logical path doesn't jive with the billionaires like Musk and Thiel that want to thin the population

These rich f6cks don't give a damn and they'll make sure the repuke party bends the knee. Stupid republican voters are voting for their own demise. And ours too.

9. Wait!! Republican voters have figured out Democrats are fighting to keep healthcare for millions of Americans...

and Republicans are fighting to keep tax cuts for a handful of Billionaire's? Something is wrong here. Call the Fox Propaganda Outlet. There's work to be done!

10. Many are beginning to

figure out that it's really DEMOCRATS who at least TRY to work on behalf of the proverbial "average Joe." NOT Republicans.

Re. healthcare, hell, only took em 15 YEARS.

Re. bullshit Republican pssn down economics, aka RAYGUNomics, 45 years hence? Not quite YET.

11. The GOP should issue half a two-by-four to each MAGA voter...

So they can whack themselves in the head when they vote. Then it would make sense... to me, anyway.
