At first when you see Kurt Eichenwald mention that he needs to restate his tweet about wishing death on Republicans you think maybe, JUST MAYBE he figured out that wishing death on anyone is not a good thing.
Right?
On the advice of ppl who care, I am deleting my tweet and restating it in a less aggressive way:

Millions like me tonight dont know if GOP "health" bill will pass & kill them. I hope those who vote for it someday face same anguish we do.
— Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) May 6, 2017
And there it is again. No matter how “flowery” you write this Kurt, you’re still wishing death on people.
Honestly millions of people don’t know in most cases WHAT will kill them so really, c’mon man. Plus if people who care about you gave you advice to write this crap, maybe you should find new people who care about you.

Seems pretty cut and dry.
People with preexisting conditions could not obtain private health insurance until ACA. GOP wants to put us back into that.
— Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) May 7, 2017
Not exactly true.

Kurt also leaves out the nugget that the piece that covered pre-existing conditions via the ACA had a cap which means only so many people could qualify.

But hey, go ahead and blame the GOP.
Maybe we should unlink health insurance from employers and work on reducing healthcare COSTS? Just a thought.

Get outta here! You mean we should make health care accountable for costs and reboot the entire system via the free market?! Insanity.
Countless people like me tonight dont know if you will realize that you don't know what you're talking about. Will your readers catch on?

We caught on.
Granted, we only read Kurt to make fun of him but still.
Ok, explain it to me. How do I get coverage w/ preexisting condition? And if u say "high risk pools" u know nothing but Fox talking points.

Oooh, someone’s gettin’ all tough up in here.
Sorry to be flip Kurt, but I have a PEC too, & prefer this diabetic's proposed solution, which would lower health costs all around. pic.twitter.com/TdwQpDW7UC

Ok, so this is super long but well worth the read, so if you skipped down here because you were like, “Holy cow, forget that,” head BACK up there and read it. Serio.

Because fair or something.
U dont. I pay for my own insurance. Without insurance, you do, because then we all go on Medicare disability. Or die.
— Kurt Eichenwald (@kurteichenwald) May 7, 2017
OR WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE.
So pretty sure it’s safe to say that Kurt’s attempt to restate his tweet wishing death on people didn’t go much better.
Shocker.
