Looks like Democratic leadership is finally beginning to wake up and focus on Paul Ryan's plan to end Medicare and replace it with a voucher system.
Democrats have a two front war to wage the next four years.
One front will be against what I imagine will be the single most corrupt administration in US History. I expect Trump and his unqualified minions will commence to loot the state in ways that would make Mobutu Sese-Seko blush. Everyone who is worried about Trump creating concentration camps is missing the point (I hope). He will create an organization to build the camps, his cronies will create companies to build the camps and then they won't get built and his cronies run off with the cash and kick back bribes to Trump, Inc. When they aren't looting the Treasury, they will likely be so dangerously incompetent that they could start a war or a depression.
Democrats have to fight that battle.
But they also have to fight the usual battles against the far right ideologues of the Republican Congress, led by the Zombie Eyed Granny Starver from Wisconsin.
Pushing back on Medicare is the first glimmer that they realize the dual threats facing them.
