Sanders: ‘I wrote the damn bill’ on Medicare for All by caseydarnell_
Defending his signature health-care proposal at the Democratic primary debate Tuesday Sen. Bernie Sanders shut down attacks on Medicare for All as ill-informed: He is the final authority on it, because, he declared ringingly, “I wrote the damn bill.”
“They will be better because Medicare for All is comprehensive,” Sanders said. “It covers all health care needs. For senior citizens, it will finally include dental care, hearing aids and eyeglasses.” Bernie shot back at Ryan: “I do know it. I wrote the damn bill.” The audience responded with thunderous applause.
