Last time I looked, the GOP would not admit that "affordability" was even a word.

Because they haven't bothered trying to come up with something.
They're there to go along with whatever Trump says or does. Talking about this or offering solutions would make Trump look bad so they stay quiet and, instead, avoid their constituents like the plague.

The GOPers are rolling out their new campaign slogan: "Shut up and get in line, or you're next..." I wonder how that will play with voters? Asking for a nation at risk...

The status quo would have been far, far preferable to our current mess.
You're a stupid pile of s*&^ who gets their views from social media memes, so I don't really expect you to understand that.
