Don't worry, I'm not worried about you losing your mind and supporting trump. I do think we ought to be able to have a discussion about policy without working about jumpy swing voters or people motivated by hate - the first ought to respect a well thought out position (I know, wishful thinking) and the second are going to be with Trump regardless.
I actually do think that a health plan that intelligently includes everyone present in the US can get through the House today, and might get through a Senate if it flips. Note that when I say "intelligently includes" that automatically rules out anything drafted by Bernie, who hasn't gotten a major bill through anything in three decades, but not things drafted by Liz Warren or Kamala Harris, both of whom have a much better sense of how to draft thoughtful, workable bills.
