So, when he’s flailing and crashing out, socialism is a perfectly acceptable maneuver to make.
Got it.

Just wait for the magic trick and sleight of hand as Trump actually re-directs the money to his gaudy low-class ballroom.

>Trump added: “In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!”
Insurance companies HATE this one simple trick!!!

He’s the dumbest president ever. Dismantling the ACA to “hurt the bad insurance companies” then giving people the ACA cash to “buy their own insurance and keep the extra money for themselves” is so completely idiotic it’s hard to imagine that even Trump would say it.
In addition, why won’t people insured by their companies ask to ALSO be given the money to pay their share, too?
On the bright side, Trump’s finally actually shared his health care plan. And it’s every bit as thoughtful and intelligent as we thought.

Trump is proposing the end of the ACA(Obamacare) by going around the structure and giving funds directly to people.
First, people can already use the tax credits immediately.
Second, giving money instead of tax credits, will leave people without the protections in the ACA that insurance companies can’t refuse to cover “pre-existing conditions”, just like before the ACA was created.

Hasn’t this guy been two weeks away from announcing his health care plan for the last ten years already? And he’s still just spouting off talking points?

That’s not a viable option to end the shutdown. They’d still need Democrats to vote for it, which they never will as it would gut the ACA and collapse the U.S. healthcare system.
He’s tried ‘everything’ except for the obvious and most simple solution. Extend the subsidies.

Why does Trump hate this country so much? Like what does he get out of destroying America?

Just rename it “TrumpCare” and he’ll STFU and leave it alone.

Note if you actually do the math and convert the funding that goes into ACA into money for each individual American you get like $400 each annually , totally enough for healthcare

And that is the Trump/GOP healthcare plan, which is to kill anything that Obama’s name iattached to. They have no plans to speak of as its replacement, which means it just goes away.

Actually, I think Trump has a great idea here…but it doesn’t quite go far enough.
Instead of dealing with private insurance companies, doctors and hospitals should be able to submit medical bills to the government for payment!
It would eliminate so much red tape and third party profiteering!
They could call it the “Official Benefit for Accessible Medical Affordability”, or OBAMAcare for short.
It kinda just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it?

It’s so funny he’s complaining about the ACA being a subsidy for insurance companies when that’s exactly why the heritage foundation created the legislation for Mass under Romney.
The republicans will never come up with a better plan because it is their plan.

Once again for those in the back:
The Executive branch does not have this power. How many times to we have to say that before it sinks in, or before someone in the media says that to him out loud.
He is specifically not in charge of economic policy in this way. His job is to see to it that what Congress allocated is dispersed.
The Constitution and the Impoundment Control Act of 1974 are very clear about this.
It’s long past time for us to just tell him, “No.”

This headline is doing a lot of fucking heavy lifting for the nonsense Trump proposed. This headline makes it seem like he has a plan when he doesn’t even have a fucking concept of a plan. Fuck this headline.

Gee, sending checks to the people instead of giving them health insurance will sure solve their problems… /s As if anyone would dutifully set the money aside just in case they get injured or have a disease. You spent the money paying your existing medical bills? Sorry, no more for you…
