You’ll have to work hard to find any significant logic in the interviews Vox’s Sarah Kliff did with residents in Kentucky, who apparently voted for Donald Trump because they didn’t think he and the Republicans would really take away their health insurance.
He was, you may recall, the candidate promising to repeal Obamacare.
Democrats weren’t much interested in defending the health care law during the campaign and Kliff’s interviews reveal why. In 2016, down is up and up is down. And the voters were willing to play “chicken” on the issue.
Kathy Oller, in Corbin, KY., is one of those who voted for the president-elect.
“We all need it,” Oller told Kliff when she asked about the fact Trump and congressional Republicans had promised Obamacare repeal. “You can’t get rid of it.”
But she voted for Trump anyway because….
“I found with Trump, he says a lot of stuff,” she said. “I just think all politicians promise you everything and then we’ll see. It’s like when you get married — ‘Oh, honey, I won’t do this, oh, honey, I won’t do that.’”
Oller’s job? She signs people up for health care coverage.
