I don't want any health plan the government cooks up. I want things back the way they were when the healthcare insurers would compete with each other gor my business.

No matter, its been totally gutted. No mandate, no penalties, too costly for anyone to afford, even with the subisidies, people pulling out of it so much, less people are covered today than when it went into affect.

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.
This is a totally ignorant post.

First off, thank God for John McCain. If not for him, I and millions of others would have no health insurance right now, because despite how hard the right has worked to destroy it, they never had anything to replace it with. Which means they were merely trying to kick people off for the sake of destroying a program they didn't implement. No other reason.

They were--and are--more than willing to let Americans go without. They care not a whit about us. Even as COVID-19 rages across the country they are still trying to take away our health insurance. Why, for God's sake? Do they really not care about Americans at all? (Rhetorical question. The answer is obvious.)

Secondly, the ACA is still alive and well. I've had it since 2012 and have used it just this year. The website works just fine and my Blue Cross/Blue Shield policy is working as it should.

You got nothing. Your orange god has got nothing. The GOP has got nothing. Their only answer is, tough ****, no health insurance for you.

And you wonder why American has turned on the Party of Trump.

He had both chambers from 2017-2019.

It was going to be easy, remember?
Republicans didn't have a filibuster proof majority though.

I wouldn't be surprised though if (pre oath of office) he was ignorant as to what the filibuster is .

Default Two weeks ago, Trump told Wallace that he would be signing a comprehensive health care plan by today. Where is it?

In his interview with Chris Wallace two weeks ago, Trump said, “We’re signing a health care plan within two weeks, a full and complete health care plan that the Supreme Court decision on DACA gave me the right to do so.”

Americans want to know: where is that plan?

I believe Trump is golfing this weekend...

I am hoping the health plan will be released when the pandemic response plan is released.

Trump has been talking about his healthcare plan since 2016. It would be nice if he followed thru on it.
