"SNIP....

In the last three months, President Trump has called Obamacare a “disaster,” a “catastrophe” and something that just “doesn’t work,” CNN reports.

But on Monday, he conceded, it’s working “at least adequately now.”

He added: “And we had that choice to make. And politically it’s probably not a good thing that I did, but it’s the right thing to do for a lot of people.”

1. Bet you GOP layed down the law and refused to allow Trump to come up

with a plan because they don't want good healthcare for people. The poor will make it to medicare and will vote if there is good healthcare. Trump doesn't know it. But he knows republicans got sunk on healthcare in 2018. So he's grabing ahold of the ACA like it is the mast of a sinking ship.

2. They why has he done the opposite

HE claimed the higher premium costs were from the Democrats when he knew Marco Rubio included a provision into the omnibus bill before he was elected causing the premiums to skyrocket, and he blamed the Democrats knowing Rubio did that.He signed the tax scam bill which also had things kicking people off their health care plan, he lied claiming pre existing conditions would be covered when they were fighting to prevent it. He's been doing everything he could to hurt it and the people who have it. He could reverse the Marco provision today reducing premiums , but won't because he's a liar. He has done this before, claiming something he is doing when he really isn't , like building his wall.

3. So that's why my health insurance went up almost 18% in 2019

Up until then it was modest increases including one year when it went down a small amount.

4. It is election season,

the health care topic is a losing issue for Republicans. Good that they have the liar in chief to lie about health care.

Yeah but it's too soon to impeach Trump because he needs more time to dismantle health care and our safety net, not impeachable offenses but killing Obamacare and weakening our safety net will lead a lot of people to early deaths.
