The White House was blindsided by the idea and is now dealing with a furious backlash from conservative allies, business leaders and lawmakers
Amusing to think that the Federal Housing Finance Director can cause such a $hitstorm by walking up to Drumpf and floating a dumb idea...while Donnie's aides stand by helplessly.
This is the same turd who goes around accusing Drumpf's enemies or targets of mortgage fraud—without evidence.

The problem stems from Conservative wanting something that was, so there's agreement on what that looks like. Progressives, though, all have different ideas and refuse to compromise and align, and so are easy pickings. They bicker about stuff amongst themselves because they have their personal hot buttons, and the GOP has figured out that they just need to hold their nose, put aside their morality perspectives, and vote as a bloc, just to get power.
Think about this, tho. If the Democrat party is playing chess (hopefully)
1) The âdefectorâ scapegoats donât face election recall, so they were chosen by Dem leadership to cast these votes as they were most protected from being voted out in November.
2) âHoliday travel and plane flights and paychecks returned for the winter? Youâre welcome. We couldnât bear to see you suffer, but Republicans wanted you to.â
3) At midterms weâll hear âwe ended the GOP tantrum; they were showing that theyâre willing to literally starve you.â
4) Later: âYour healthcare premiums went up, well, it was obviously the GOP intention that we warned you about.â
5) âYou donât like this? Vote Dem next time.â

2 of which are from my state, NH. Shaheen is retiring she could give a flying F about NH. And Hassan probably will retire before 2028, I'd rather see her resign.

But - the amount of short sightedness in the Dem party (âIâll never vote Dem again after thisâ) will be a real problem. They need to stop arguing about pronouns and get to the real issue: loss of voting rights.

The Republicans are back where they were during Trumpâs first term â repeal ACA (Obamacare) and replace it with nothing. Talk about the need for âreformâof the system, but do nothing more than getting rid of the ACA and making cuts to Medicaid.
I guess you could argue that ACA in its current form is better than nothing, but...It really speaks to the point democrats can/should control the narrative.
eg, ok, lets get rid of ACA, which you, the GOP gutted and made ineffective, with a better plan...or are you, the GOP, only interested in making further cuts to medicaid/healthcare?

Republican plan... let's take away healthcare and stop feeding people because the rich have been paying too much in taxes.

neither side has a particularly compelling argument:
Let's make healthcare that much more expensive for people, or
Let's further increase how much we pay insurance cos for managing our healthcare.
