In his parable on the last judgment (Matthew 25:31-46), Jesus says to those being admitted to the Kingdom of Heaven “I was sick and you took care of me,” and among the sins of those destined for hell is their failure to look after others.  Trumpcare is simply slamming the door in the face of the poor and the sick.  It’s also a firm rejection of the Catholic ‘preferential option for the poor’ and, as such, is also slamming the door in the face of Jesus.  As Jesus himself noted, there are a lot of people who call him ‘Lord, Lord’ but do the opposite of what he commanded.  So far, we see the Trump administration refusing to welcome the stranger, refusing to care for the sick, refusing to feed the hungry … welcome to a federal government run by the Herodians!
