Right Wing Hypocrite Tomi Lahren Still On Parent's Insurance Thanks To Law She Wants Repealed.
Tomi Lahren and Chelsea Handler recently got together for a political debate for some reason, and the result was predictably devoid of substance.
Handler spent most of the evening bashing Donald Trump, while Lahren countered by defending Donald Trump, and the two went back and forth without saying much of anything worth hearing for their entire time on stage.
One part of the exchange has been making some headlines, however.
At one point, during a back-and-forth over the Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare as it has come to be known, Lahren admitted that she benefits from one of its key provisions.
According to
Daily Beast, the 24-year-old
Tomi Lahren is still on her parents’ health insurance plan, despite being adamantly opposed to the law that allows her that privilege, one which was not afforded to people her age prior to the passing of the Affordable Care Act in 2010.
This elicited boos from the audience, many of whom were clearly disgusted by her blatant hypocrisy.
Tomi Lahren, who declares herself a “pro-America” conservative, which is a thinly veiled way of saying you’re anti-American if you’re not conservative, calls the Affordable Care Act “socialized medicine,” even though it’s not.
The Affordable Care Act is an example of a regulated insurance market, but it’s not even remotely “socialist.”
She also used rhetoric straight from Donald Trump, describing the ACA as being in the midst of a “death spiral.”
Handler, to her credit, correctly pointed out that the health care law is being sabotaged by the president.
“It’s in a death spiral being sabotaged by the president of the United States,” Handler said.
“A decent human being would say: let’s do whatever we can to make the system that’s in place thrive.”
