Claire McCaskill joined her good pals on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” today to once again defend the disaster that is Obamacare.

McCaskill has been a staunch supporter of former President Barack Obama’s failed health care law from the outset, voting for it in the Senate, and doing everything she can to ensure it stays in place. But even for a die-hard Obamacare supporter like herself, Claire’s comments today were especially ridiculous. While stammering through ways to preserve Obamacare during the interview McCaskill said she, “thinks the individual market is not as bad as people say.” Um…really?!?

Let’s quickly remind Claire of just how bad people are saying Obamacare is for Missouri. Yesterday, reports showed that after numerous insurers left the individual marketplace another 18,000 Missourians would be losing insurance coverage and 25 Missouri counties would be without an insurance provider in 2018. This comes on top of a report from the Department of Health and Human Services that showed premiums in the individual market have risen 145% in Missouri during the last four years. Someone needs to ask Claire if that doesn’t qualify as bad, what does?
