Health and Human Services Secretary Tom Price said "we disagree strenuously with the report that was put out." Meaning the CBO report released Monday afternoon. He said it was "virtually impossible" to have 14 million people lose coverage in 2018.
Hmmm....I guess he hadn't read White House analysis of Trumpcare. Or maybe he had and he was lying.

"The CBO actually nailed the overall impact of the law on the uninsured pretty closely. It predicted a big drop in the percentage of people under age 65 who would lack insurance, and that turned out to be the case. CBO projected that in 2016 that nonelderly rate would fall to 11 percent, and the latest figure put the actual rate at 10.3 percent.
It’s true (as Trump administration officials have repeatedly pointed out) that CBO greatly overestimated the number who would get government-subsidized coverage through the new insurance exchanges. But at the same time, CBO underestimated the number who would get coverage through expanding Medicaid.
...So to a large extent, CBO’s mistake was in estimating where the uninsured would get covered, not how many of them would gain coverage....."

My bad. Fact check is right. I guess my insurance didn't go up 40 percent in the last 5 years. And Obamacare is so good that Donald Trump is now the president of the United States.
Yes sir. That Obama is so loved. He is so smart. He did such a good job that Donald Trump got 306 electoral votes. It had to be the Russians... because Obama was the man. We loved the mass shootings every month too. That was awesome. And how Obama cooled down the earth with his environmental protection. .. wow.
So he's ashamed of his muslim faith... at leaSt he stopped those sea levels from rising. .. man... Miami almost got wiped out... thank God for our first gay president Obama and his transgender husband. Every liberal loves a freak right?
So, here you Trump voters - these were Donald Trump's promises. What happened?
You were too busy loving muslims, you forgot to read the bill?
