Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.
So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?
The GOP has been talking ‘repeal and replace’ the ACA since the day it was passed. Over a decade and they are still trying to come up with a better plan.
Which they can’t, because it’s already the most conservative plan that had any chance of working. It doesn’t even work well, it just had some kind of chance.
Apparently, Obama himself told Trump that he, Obama, would not call Trump out if he decided to label it ‘Trumpcare.’ All Donnie had to do was change a few lines in the ACA and then declare victory! He could have plastered his face all over the site and made plenty of his voters happy. No one hates Trump’s voters more than Trump.
