If you look at the main pages of all the leading news networks in the US, you will at present find almost no headlines about the GOP's full press to repeal Obamacare. There are, however, bigger-than-life headlines about Trump's new sanctions on North Korea. The US is falling into one of the dumbest traps in history. Under-funding education is enjoying a massive payoff for the rich. The greatest threat to the lives of millions of Americans is being eclipsed by a monkey show of geopolitics.

The New York Times, true, has focused on recent natural disasters in Mexico and the Caribbean, but still it makes little mention of the pending demise of Obamacare. Fox News is predictably silent on the matter. CNN has placed healthcare stories on the side and made North Korea the main story. More sanctions. More barking among the baboons. But it is a hard fact that North Korea doesn't have a weapon that can do the kind of damage to Americans that Trumpcare can.

But Trumpcare will kill more.
