So Much For “Make Sure It Works!” Trivial — But Hilarious!

To be fair, the early days of Obamacare.gov were sort of glitchy, too — but that was insurance, for about 100 million people, applying.

Here, Tangerine’s “Rx plan” is strictly by voluntary efforts — from/of just a few manufacturers — and only for just a small handful of drugs.

He now well-knows he has zero ability to force any drug price down, and put it on his list of meds. [Ironically, that is what he, and his minions — would / did. . . call “communism” or “socialism”, if/when a Democratic candidate even mentioned the idea of it. And to be clear — I supported Mr. Biden’s thoughtful “negotiated” moves, with over a dozen drugmakers, on the ten most widely prescribed meds — to make them more affordable in TriCare, CMS and Medicare / Medicaid venues. That is, the idea is sound; but his “execution” of it — is preposterously… flawed.]

So, the point here is that his people cannot even get a voluntary enrollment site up and running, for perhaps three to five drugs at this point. It has crashed at the first page, for over 28 hours now, after “launch” [offering a blank grayed-out screen, on the landing page] — and the White House now has a static screen shot image, of some supposed future web-site — claiming a January 2026 launch / availability. [By way of contrast, the ACA of 2010 / Obamacare site was running smoothly by the third day, after launch. And has run smoothly for 15 years.] He said, according to MSM reports — “Okay, got to make sure it’s successful, it’s got my name on it….” Indeed, Trumpie. Hilarious.

In another age — incompetence like this would have been plenty to end a GOP administration’s popular sway. Now there is a segment of the American population that cheers… even his felonious bribe seeking moves. Incompetence?! Trivial, they say — so long as billionaires get their subsidies and tax cuts. Damn. Out.
