Medical costs and healthcare insurance costs have skyrocketed, so it was a total unmitigaged disaster. Calling it a train wreck is too kind.

We should have known when the web site didn't even work...Michelle's moron pal from college we paid 50x the market rate to build the site, and it never worked as planned...and it was outsourced to a Canadian company! Silicon Valley IT companies bailed the Obama's out of an embarassing mess for a fraction of the cost they paid to Michelle's Canadian failure of a IT contractor.

Trump has already began implementing his plan, but too many are busy listening to the MSM to know what he's already done. Go find out for yourselves, I'm tired of babysitting LIbs here.
It's Trump's job to get his party in line.

Don't sugarcoat it.

I'm still paying for it...along with the Dept of Ed and Dept of Energy...both promised to be abolished by St. Ronnie.

Your party is only fiscally conservative when Team Blue is in power. When your party has the power all of a sudden there are "excuses".

By not abolishing it and replacing it all he has done is left it on the table, even in a weakened state, for the next Democratic regime to fatten it back up.

That's how it works. Just like St. Ronnie's failures 40 years ago. You have to strike while the iron is hot and when you don't it becomes part of the political/social fabric of the country. Carter's creation of the Dept of Ed was less than 2 years old when Reagan had his chance. And don't give me the old line that he didn't have the House so it was DOA. He should have never promised it then.

We have Obamacare in some form, currently weaker but will be stronger one day, because Trump failed...period.

Will Mexico will pay for it?

No, and when the Great Wall of tRump is finally built, Americans won't be able to cross the border for cheap Mexican drugs and healthcare, either.

Maybe it will be the DJT Foundation running healthcare.

Ahhhh the John McCain's fault excuse. Not very original for this 3 year wait, and well perhaps you don't remember, but the thread is about the magical plan that the Supreme Court said he could do or something babble babble he told Fox News. You know the one he promised for America, TODAY. He only made that story up 2 weeks ago, how in the he$$ is that Senator McCains fault?

Do you really think Trumpy will use that one, today, though? You know, for not doing what he said was just about done and was going to magically appear, today? Something about immigration too I believe he lied about.

Whatever it is... I hope it includes “free” mental healthcare for the Dems, they’re going to need it when Trump wins again in November..

I'm not saying that employment-based health insurance is the dumbest system imaginable, but if a pandemic leads to 5+ million people losing their health coverage, it's definitely a contender.

Which sums up Trump's healthcare plan.

He said he would reveal it on Day One! of his administration.

Apparently,. it was postponed to today.
