Krugman gets it right.
Conservatives for quite some time have put ideology ahead of ideas. For decades now they only speak in cliches and fear mongering. They have bought into libertarian mythology and market fundamentalist nonsense while abandoning any thought of thinking issues through and finding real world solutions based on empirical facts. Conservatives have become ideologues.
Trumps "Nobody knew health care could be so complicated" is revealing of how they refuse to think deeply. They've had years to think it through but never bothered to think about it at all other than to spread fear, unrest and doubt. They're very very good at that and it appears that they aren't much good at anything else. In the USA that's enough to get you elected president.

If god was real he wouldn't need middle men to explain his wants or do his bidding.
