Medicare for All at the Polls

Single-payer might be the issue that blows the Trump Administration and the Republican Party apart.

Such reporting and polls raise serious doubts about the ideas that there is a Trump movement and the notion that Trump is the GOP’s leader. A notion to consider is that Trump is the Republicans’ figurehead who does not represent the party or even his own administration.
