Tomi Lahren Trashes Obamacare, Then Admits She Actually Benefits From It

[Amica Nostra 4,803]

The outspoken 24-year-old is still on her parents’ health insurance plan.

Tomi Lahren says the Affordable Care Act is a disaster that’s in a death spiral, but that hasn’t stopped her from benefitting from it.

During an interview with comedian Chelsea Handler at Politicon, the controversial 24-year-old conservative commentator trashed Obamacare for 10 minutes before admitting to the crowd that she was, in fact, still on her parents’ health insurance plan. 

“Okay, so do you have a health care plan or no?” Handler asked. 

“Well, luckily I’m 24, so I am still on my parents’,” Lahren said. 

The irony was not lost on the audience, which promptly started to boo, laugh and chant, “Thanks, Obama!”

This was not the first time Lahren had been called out for lacking some self-awareness in her political arguments. In May, just months after she lost her job at The Blaze, she criticized University of Notre Dame students who walked out of Vice President Mike Pence’s speech, tweeting “Good luck holding a job!”

Anyone who's a conservative at 24 years of age needs to get checked.

"Well, luckily I'm 24, so I am still on my parents" - Tomi Lahren

 

Apparent "luck" is a new word for Obamacare. 

 

I loved her backpaddle after the laughing "Hey I pay my parents for it"....ya sure

Why can't she go out like the rest of us and obtain her own healthcare instead of mooching off her parents at age 24? She has a job and money doesn't she? I'm sure she can afford the big bill.

People still argue who said this first but it is mostly associated with Bernard Shaw: "If you are not a liberal at 25, you have no heart. If you are not a conservative at 35, you have no brain."

Triggering lefties.

 

Tomi Lahren doesn't act the way the left dictates women (and every other group they focus on) politically align themselves, so.. 

 

/inb4 misogyny 

 

Edit: I've seen enough of Tomi to know she's not that much of a conservative. One thing we have in common is the loony left have created a rather huge wedge for independents and moderates, who, now, tend to choose to side against the left until they can come back to their senses.

So let me get this straight. A law with hundreds of bad provisions cannot be criticized because it has one good provision? Sounds like liberal logic to me.

That's pretty much it.

 

Of course, what else is lefty logic:

 

- Trump supports universal

- Obamacare mandate sucks and makes healthcare that much more unaffordable (because its a mandate to a for-profit industry -- when does it ever result in better prices?)

- Instead of aligning with Trump to dump Obamacare and have him team up with Dems to go universal, keep the failing Obamacare!

- Winners

 

 

If the left ever wanted a Republican President to support universal, this was their shot. Alas, this is what happens when they're too busy throwing tantrums instead of thinking rationally.

I love revisionist history.  It was the republicans that forced the ACA into a mandate by refusing to vote for ANY type of universal healthcare put forth by the dems and Obama.
 

Align with Trump to dump Obamacare and do what exactly? There's no way that a republican controlled house will vote in favor of any type of universal healthcare. The dems were smart by refusing to accept any repeal of the ACA, because healthcare would have taken a big step backwards if it passed.

We need some internet psychologists to scientifically assess her.
