The problem is not that Ryan is ignorant. He knows perfectly well that Obamacare uses refundable tax credits. And that makes the weird dishonesty of his approach to selling the Republican replacement effort all the more baffling.
Uh…politicians saying “weirdly dishonest” things is baffling?
Is this some new trend, then?
I thought I had observed dishonesty so much that I more-or-less take it for granted.
Yeah. They are lying about Obamacare. They don’t bother to even admit the truth about crowd size when there is easily verifiable evidence that the simplest American can see. Obamacare is complicated. Lying about that is as easy as breathing.
