Eddie N Maybe he might’ve lost a job and can’t be rehired, or has a job but doesn’t have enough money to provide for medical care, don’t speak on issues you have no insight on

[@msbandit]

I want to ask Jeannie if people just go and help themselves out in Vietnam.

[@alexisreve1]

This man doesn't even have to be poor/jobless to not be able to afford care for his son. The price of healthcare in the US is absolutely insane.

[@annasetlhake3674]

Honestly stopped listening after "3rd world"🙄

[@Moonn_spell]

Same lmao

[@tatendachangamire8730]

I never expected that from Jeannie what a stupid ass comment that was!

[@Aniexo_]

As someone from a third world country Jeannie no tf we don’t 🙄 maybe that’s how they do it where you’re from 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@abbylicioussGND]

Did Madam Jeanie just say "We're not in the Third World where you can just go and help yourself?" WTF!?!?

[@nyasha2432]

yup, she did that lol. I am so disappointed in her!

[@ravenanderson1695]

Being from Philly and working in social services here, I know that everyone isn’t eligible or aware about certain resources. I pray that if his child really is sick, he gets the help his baby needs 🙏🏾

[@shon7425]

Facts

[@traceytracey3756]

Philly?😬 Run!!!

[@yourmotherslefttesticle3892]

Raven Anderson I respect that but if he’s got a sick kid and is not aware of the resources that’s just hella irresponsible

[@malumbesyatwinda8094]

Jeanie's third world comment was so ignorant. Someone should have checked her

[@TraceyStClair]

I wish Amanda’s called Jeannie out about that third world statement 😂

[@jenniferbond8762]

Everyone couldn’t afford Obamacare . Get in the real world

[@nikeleclemente8602]

@April Smith Facts! Cause where I live you have to make below poverty guidelines to get assistance and where I live below poverty guidelines for 2 people you have to make below something like 26k yearly before taxes

[@jyn88]

@beth s Medicaid is not expanded in every state. It's harder to qualify for if it's not.

[@mthompson5383]

@April Smith Thank You. Glad someone pointed that truth out.

[@kayfay2535]

beth s free universal healthcare should be available for everyone. Especially under 18s.

[@virgilgeorge6579]

Exactly💯

[@lkhoward9140]

If the person's friends and family are also struggling, what good is Venmo or gofundme?

[@mthompson5383]

Yeah, GoFundMe is not some instant win ticket. And, because of some of the dishonest fraud cases some people have committed, there may be generous donors that dont feel comfortable donating on the site

[@user-nq6um4bs5y]

LK Howard How about stop popping our babies that U can’t afford

[@nancysanyu5807]

Jeanine love you however I was hurt when you said "we are not in a 3rd world country" that's a hurtful statement. People in 3rd countries are not lawless or thief's.

[@lydiapauline6793]

did Jeannie just say "we are not in the third world where you just go and help yourself out?" wow just wow...this is just arrogant and sad that this is your perception of third world countries

[@emmaweiks]

i really like amanda and i genuinely agree with like 95% of things she says (including what she said here), but I do think it's kind of rude to make faces like that when her co-hosts are talking. It kind of reminds me of Meghan McCain on the view. I think it cheapens the argument.

[@traceytracey3756]

Yes!!!!

[@traceytracey3756]

As if her opinion is more valuable.

[@creamsoda943]

exactly!!

[@mikeyg7028]

Yes. And waiting to be called on, like she could just open her open on her own.

[@carolinecorrea8510]

Those 3rd world countries at least have free healthcare Jennie

[@allyceleste9670]

Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie 🤦🏾‍♀️

[@traceytracey3756]

She's having a tough time. She would have said it better, had she the time to think.

[@Diana-zl3ue]

Tracey Tracey omg gorl you really be defending Jeanie in every comment

[@mzstacystacks3168]

Tamera’s face when she stated ignorant comment

[@jamiemrk8015]

"Third world" wow Jeannie

[@traceytracey3756]

Some are lawless.

[@sarahvizzerra1817]

I had Obamacare and couldn’t afford that even with a job. It was not affordable at all

[@floridagirl386]

Thats because obama wanted to line his own pockets instead.

[@marcie2208]

Jeannie will be apologizing for that comment girl what were you thinking

[@jenniferfuller6018]

Obama care didnt even cover for my gyno exam. Hours on the phone and 6 months of payment/ waist of my life.

[@chas9914]

The two childless people are the ones with most input

[@milcahnd]

Jeannie Mai thats a very ignorant statement.

[@kimberlygonzalez3384]

Reminds me of the movie John Q, it is an ethical issue.

[@tiara3849]

That's exactly what I was thinking!!

[@brandi17able]

That was a good movie based on real facts... he had a job and his insurance didn’t cover everything

[@micaelaandrews7447]

I'm not sure how Jeannie thinks third world countries work lol but we do not just got out and "help ourselves". We have law and order too.

[@MsJani70]

Has it occurred to Jeannie that there are "third-world" countries that have affordable health care? SMH.

[@TheKarmacola]

My country Bhutan health Care is free #ThirdWorldCountry

[@christinepranjivan9344]

Are you serious ? $300 !! Wow I live in Fiji and my mother-in-law’s inhaler is $7fjd which is $3usd.

[@MajesticMyronn]

I’m with Amanda on this one... it’s hard for me to speak on this because usually people who are desperate sometimes do end up doing things innocently not because they’re bad people but because sometimes they don’t know what to do and the only thing they can think of is just fending for themselves without necessarily causing a scene... so although is calm approach and the way he did may allow us to think about it and be sympathetic on the other end... if he does have a child like Jeannie said with her suggestion he could find ways to see what kind of help he can get in regards to his child’s health and hopefully the child can get what he/ she needs to be in a better state when it comes to their health ! But if he doesn’t... just imagine how easy it was to manipulate the person behind the desk and they comply

[@traceytracey3756]

Ain't nothing INNOCENT about robbery! I don't care what excuses are made.

[@lavishmisfittink3214]

Cause u not in the situation stfu

[@user-nq6um4bs5y]

Lavish Misfit Tink Jussie smollet 2.0

[@user-nq6um4bs5y]

Lavish Misfit Tink The lady he robbed is in the situation

[@JermeciaW]

He’s wrong for the way he went about it. How you going to help your kid from jail??

[@bbloodyangel1]

if your child is really ill you're desperate...he would rather his child live. desperate people will do crazy things if theyre pushed, i feel for him

[@ashton8878]

Eddie N dang this guy, made it seem like he have never stole a piece of candy before or something.

[@bbloodyangel1]

@Eddie N if you have a sick child at home its different than if you were sick yourself... the two are not at all correlated. he didnt steal a gucci belt he stole to get meds for his child to live.... very different circumstance.

[@traceytracey3756]

Finally, somebody talking reasonable.

[@brandi17able]

People would do a lot worse for their kids including kill

[@Alexa-uk8lj]

GoFundMe is not HEALTH Coverage! The ACA does NOT provide the same quality of service to every state. The Governor has a great deal of control over the State's coverage and offerings, and this new administration has also allowed the insurance companies to cut back on their coverage.

[@livinggg]

Wow Jeannie 🤦🏽‍♀️ the ignorance 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@ZZ-qw6el]

We need Medicare for all!! & yeah, I am not feeling Jeannie’s comments!!

[@jerickbaarde5242]

2:46 amanda’s face when jeannie said the third world comment beside her

[@WJones-jf8mf]

Jeannie is so ignorant. Stop using your fake stories of your family. This isn’t going to work for this scenario.

[@daissyyrey6014]

Exactly i feel like she tries to relate to everything

[@Everything_Ju]

I’m Amanda’s face when Loni said “law and order” at 2:39 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@alonialewis305]

Jeanie programs and assistance vary based on location, population, and more. So no it's not available for everyone. Especially those who are in the gap where they can't afford it but make a little too much for assistance. It's the working class delimma.

[@LA-xp2vu]

Notice even amanda cringe at jeannies third world comment 2:45...lols 😂

[@bethsandoval5169]

But who knows if our government wasn’t helping me with assistance who knows if I would steal for my son

[@traceytracey3756]

Who knows if you get your ass shot for stealing?

[@YaYa-hr2rr]

geesh, why so rough. It's already cold outside... she's just giving a fellow human the benefit of the doubt. I may not agree, but the vibes on this thread are like Cypress Hill lyrics (I'm sorry to those who don't get the reference

[@baaba253]

We are not in a 3rd World Country... really ? Jeannie???

[@engineerwithagarden2321]

Jeannie Mai, educate yourself about “third world “.

[@traceytracey3756]

Which country?

[@alexp7673]

Damn I am so happy to be Canadian. Your healthcare system is almost unfathomable to me. Like when I heard an American refer to an ambulance as "an expensive cab ride", I had never even thought of worrying about the expense of an ambulance.

[@agsweetener10]

the third world comment by jeannie was so ignorant lmfaooo

[@larandle]

I came thinking he robbed the PHARMACY for the medicine!!!! That would have made more sense to me.Loni needs to go bed with that go fund me mess

[@marwadridi3461]

2:42 that was an ignorant statement you just made about third world Jeannie. Some "third world" countries are safer than the US and have a better health care system

[@nomthandazotinympungose3293]

We also have law and order in third world countries, just saying 🤨. Love the show ladies 🇿🇦

[@mariahfedosov1516]

This topic makes me appreciate free health care in Canada! I always forget it's not that way everywhere & I need to remember not to take it for granted 🙏🏼

[@sweetlistenings3324]

We live in a country where our President is constantly saying "make america great again". Yet here we are fjghting to survive.

[@__GGlove]

Jeanie is too educated to make such an ignorant generalization re “this is not the third world where you just go and help yourself out”. The term “third world” is outdated as is and the derogatory tone of the statement doesn’t help her point to be anything more than prejudicial and nonsensical. Yes. “Third world” countries do have laws and majority law abiding citizens, not kind of barbaric behavior she’s seems to be suggesting.

[@Noemieorokia]

Garcia Simmonds no Jeannie isn’t as educated as people think. She has always been « ignorant », not well informed on some topics. Remember the R Kelly comment or that thing with TI. She also said that people should just hang out with her if they’re sad when the conversation was about mental health. AND « dark meat on the side » !!!!!

[@nkosazanadweba7306]

Boy, I wish I could just "help myself" in my third world country. Would have saved my parents the money they spent on my education so that I could get a job.

[@MalibuDollface]

As a person who’s has super bad asthma all my life, a inhaler is $2-300 + with no insurance. If you don’t have that you are in big trouble, further more I remember having a bad asthma attack, I went to the ER during the attack, I was told to “ fill out these papers & sit down “ I could Of died & the on duty lady could careless. It’s a serious issue here!

[@zoenzeribe1673]

Ms Jeannie, we in the 3rd world don’t rob shops. Poverty doesn’t eliminate our good conscience. That was uncalled for

[@krystallw.7513]

Next time that happens to you Tamara or anyone who is going through Switching or not having insurance, download the GOODRX app on your phone and it will give you a discounts for the pharmacy around your area. I am a medical assistant I have been for about 5 to 6 years and a lot of our patients don’t have insurance so we recommend the GOODRX app for them.

[@lilmakori]

The fact that people set up gofundme accounts to help with medical bills just proves universal healthcare would work.

[@tiffanymyra7927]

Super disappointed in Jeannie’s comment about “this ain’t the third world”. I expected better

[@moiponemiya1416]

I need Jeanie to Read a Book!!! She just insinuated that people in third world countries have no law and order. Highly offended!

[@ChrissyGotTheCoils]

No, that was 100% wrong talking about they had "15 seconds" 🧐

[@Jonathan-ob4sl]

Loni is serving today I’m feelin this look

[@Drehgab]

Did Jeannie just call all people who are desperate living in the third world, criminals? lol

[@jonnydavis6066]

this has nothing to do with healthcare.

[@LoveGigi99]

We seriously need to vote for Bernie this time around!

[@NatanyaOfficial]

Listen .. At First I Wasn’t Sure About Amanda But Now I’m SO Glad She’s Here . Her Knowledge About The Various Plights Of Low - Income Black Communities & Her Way Of Speaking Up For Us Is Empowering . Oh & Jeannie .. We Are “Looking” For Help.. It’s Clearly Not That Simple & Also Think Before You Speak Down On Third World Countries .. Because There’s A Lot People Could Say About Your Home, Vietnam As Well . - A Philadelphian

[@michelewofford3593]

PLEASE know that your pharmacy doesn’t want to charge you and arm-and-a-leg. They are limited by the insurance companies and the drug companies. Your pharmacy is not the enemy, but they are on the front lines to everyone’s frustrations and anger. If you want to see SIGNIFICANT change in our healthcare system, call your state senators and representatives and DEMAND that they put the insurance companies and drug companies in their place.

[@LotsofZee]

Good job Amanda for saying the truth and good job T for backing it up with actual facts
