President-elect Donald Trump may be following President Barack Obama’s lead come Jan. 20, using executive orders to roll back parts of the outgoing president’s signature health care law.
During a meeting with Republicans on Capitol Hill Wednesday, Vice President-elect Mike Pence said the president-elect plans to kick off his administration by signing executive orders to begin dismantling Obamacare.
“We’re working now on a series of executive orders that will enable that orderly transition to take place even as Congress appropriately debates alternatives to and replacements for Obamacare,” Pence told reporters after the meeting.
Pence did not elaborate on which parts of the law the president-elect would dismantle using his executive authority, and Trump’s transition team did not return The Daily Signal’s request for comment.

Geez Louise, can you overdose on Winning?
Is the ride from the swearing in long enough to the inagural parade reviewing stand? How many things will President Trump be able to sign?
All this winning seems too good to be true too!
Why don’t the stupid Republicans have a comprehensive plan/legislation ready to replace Obamacare? By now they should have one and be ready to vote on it.

It’s inside the Lockbox along with their Testicles.
You’re right and it’s disgusting. President Trump is going to be pulling a heavy load with these idiots and the Rats.
Hopefully, Trump will go to bed still signing repeal orders until his left hand gives out on him.
I’m certain that he will. The Republicans had better get their stuff together.
An executive order forcing the Obama family to rely on Obamacare would be fitting.
Then there is no “TrumpCare” for the democrats and Free Republic's #NeverTrumpers to hang around Trump's neck.
An ideal that makes the #NeverTrumpers seethe inside
How about just one: Everything the Marxist Muslim did is undone.
The best replacement is nothing: the unfettered free market.
Haven’t we learned from 0Bummer’s mandates that EO’s don’t work as they only last as long as the current Prez in office and the next won’t strike them down?
Only EO’s Trump should create are the ones to remove all of 0Bummer’s EO’s.
What?! You’re telling me PE Trump is left handed? That really sucks! MAGA!
Read the position paper.
Get rid of the individual mandate, the cost sharing reductions and the reinsurance payments and you eliminate Obamacare within weeks, months at the most. Insurance companies will go bankrupt without them, and ending them would cause all of them to bail from the exchanges.
Read the position paper.
