Donald Trump made people agree with Jeremy Hunt and they’re not sure how to take it
Donald Trump appears to have achieved the impossible by uniting the nation behind Jeremy Hunt after the so-called president slagged off the NHS.
The Democrats are pushing for Universal HealthCare while thousands of people are marching in the UK because their U system is going broke and not working. Dems want to greatly raise taxes for really bad and non-personal medical care. No thanks!

It looks like Trump sent his tweet after watching a Fox News item about the weekend rally in London calling for more government support for the health service. Presumably while sitting in bed eating a cheeseburger.
Anyway, here’s how the health secretary responded, probably the one and only time when you felt slapping Hunt on the back.
And people felt very confused by it all. Here are our favourite replies from people telling Trump exactly where to stick his tweet.

Donald Trump says the NHS is broken, & thousands march about it in the streets. But they were marching because they want to keep it as it is. Fake news. Sad.

Donald Trump has just insulted the NHS – saying it ‘isn’t working’. Tell that to the millions of lives it saves every day. RT if you agree he should mind his own business!! pic.twitter.com/Zfs2bxM3k9

Brits love the NHS and Trump denies millions of Americans decent health care. The ignorant turd’s guaranteed a big protest if he ever visits Britain https://t.co/1i01JB6KBu

Trump in reality distortion field.
People in the UK march in thousands because they ask for more public funds for the NHS, not for cutbacks. https://t.co/URBDbOrFWz— Yannis Koutsomitis (@YanniKouts) February 5, 2018
