This GOP senator says reviving Obamacare subsidies would be 'putting America first'

[Dulcinea]

(Politico) If the Senate is going to strike a deal to revive a signature Democratic policy, it will be in part because of an unlikely broker: a freshman Republican from the party’s MAGA wing.

Sen. Bernie Moreno of Ohio is, on paper, an odd fit in the core group of about a dozen senators in talks to extend Obamacare credits that lapsed Jan. 1. Most are well-known bipartisan dealmakers, such as Republican Susan Collins and Democrat Jeanne Shaheen.

Asked in an interview about his decision to take a leading role in the politically fraught health care negotiations, Moreno deployed one of Trump’s best-known slogans.

“Putting America first means putting Americans first,” he said. “People are being affected, and I want to help the people who need help. That’s what we should be doing.”

1. As an Ohioan

I can tell you be very very wary of Moreno. He ran for Senate as a Trump bootlicker and that’s all Ohioans needed to know to oust Sherrod Brown and put Moreno in office, despite the fact Moreno was found guilty in court of wage theft in 2015 from his employees back when he ran a car dealership. So in addition to having a criminal record , he hails from the country of Columbia, and he and his family lived here in America for 13 years - He came with his family at age 5 - and he and his family lived here for 13 years before becoming citizens. You’d think he would have more sympathy for immigrants but he takes the same hard line as the puppy killer.
