    Oh fuck so my depression could be considered a pre existing condition then. Im currently on my parents insurance plan since I’m still a dependent, but when I eventually have to get my own insurance, thats a pre existing condition according to the prospective new insurer?

    Fuck. Im kinda pre-diebetic since my depression fucked with my will to live, soon I might be diabetic and without ACA protection I’m kinda fucked when insurance eventually decide to not insure diabetic people.

    My parents have some investments, but even if I inherit some of it, not sure if that would cover expensive big pharma bills.

    I’mma go cry in a corner. (actually im too numb from the horrors on tuesday, too sad to even cry 😥)

      I hate to tell you, but it’s worse than that. Pre-ACA mental health wasn’t covered at all except in extremely expensive private coverage for the wealthy, so it wouldn’t matter if it was preexisting or not.

      Don’t worry, with the FDA neutered, diabetes meds might just randomly not work anyway! Who needs quality control on medicine!? (Depressed /s, because this is liable to kill both of my parents)

        Bruh, if Covid happened under this 2025 trump administration, I might actually become vaccine skeptical, at least for the hypothetical covid vaccine in this scenario.

        Would trust a trump-vaccine? Or more like a RFK Jr. -vaccine?

          Well, with typical no-WFH (telework) US government policies, another pandemic will kill off our government fast.

            Great, so a trump-appointed high ranking general gets to take over and establish a military rule? (You know he’s gonna be firing generals and the senate will allow him to install a maga general.)

              Bold of you to assume they’re not already MAGA. You don’t get far in the military without being able to kiss ass and hype yourself up.

                The military currently leans conservative, but not nessesary maga-conservative.

                If the military was maga-conservative, they would just refuse to recognize the 2020 election and illegally keep trump in office.

                A future restructuring of the military might actually make it maga-conservative.
