Jessica Tarlov: ‘Donald Trump Has Pardoned People Who Committed Hundreds of Millions of Dollars in Medicaid Fraud’

EXCERPT:

TARLOV: “He was tapping into this same emotion, the same feeling that you should have better health care, that you should have affordable housing, that your schools should be good, and that the rich live in another planet. They’re the only ones benefiting from the stock market. They’re the ones that are getting all of the breaks. And being dismissive of that kind of politics will not benefit the right. The poor on the left and the right feel exactly the same way about the rich, and on fraud. Donald Trump has pardoned people who committed hundreds of millions of dollars in Medicaid fraud, also in Minnesota, down to Florida — what are they called? Nursing home fraud. And he’s like, yeah, you guys should just walk out. So, he doesn’t care about fraud.”
