‘INSURANCE FOR EVERYBODY’
And now:
Trump: Repeal ObamaCare now, then 'start from a clean slate'
And you suckers fell for it hook, line and sinker
‘INSURANCE FOR EVERYBODY’
Before he was sworn in, President Trump made a bold promise: The as-yet-unreleased Obamacare repeal and replacement plan would have “insurance for everybody.”
“We’re going to have insurance for everybody,” Trump said in an interview with The Washington Post. “There was a philosophy in some circles that if you can’t pay for it, you don’t get it. That’s not going to happen with us.”
While House Republicans and the White House have indicated repealing and replacing Obamacare may take multiple legislative steps, the bill currently on the table would not meet Trump’s pledge. Per the CBO’s score, 14 million people would immediately lose coverage, a number that would eventually rise to 24 million over the next 10 years.
And now:
Trump: Repeal ObamaCare now, then 'start from a clean slate'
President Trump on Monday said Republicans should repeal ObamaCare now and "start from a clean slate" on a new healthcare plan, arguing doing so will help gain Democratic support.
"Republicans should just REPEAL failing ObamaCare now & work on a new Healthcare Plan that will start from a clean slate. Dems will join in!" Trump tweeted Monday night.
And you suckers fell for it hook, line and sinker
