To my knowledge Trump has not denounced Obamacare, nor has he vowed to repeal. Is that correct? I hope I’m wrong on that.
Excuse me for interrupting but this article explains Trump’s position on Obamacare. I’ve heard him trash it many times in his standard stump speech, too.

This is what he said in his book:
“Nancy Pelosi said Congress had to pass Obamacare so we could find out what’s in it. Now we have. And what’s inside those 2,733 pages is a job-killing, health care-destroying monstrosity. It can’t be reformed, salvaged, or fixed.”
“Destroying the world’s finest health-care system so that Obama can have his socialized medicine program is reckless and foolish. The proper way to bring the cost of health-care down is to make insurance companies compete nationally and get defensive medicine under control through serious tort reform that includes loser pays provisions.”

These are two paragraphs from his book. One from the first of the chapter and one from the last of the chapter.
That is incorrect. Trump has said he’d replace it with a free market solution that involves allowing people to buy plans across state lines. He’s used the example of when his company goes to buy plans and there are hardly any choices, because there’s hardly any competition within each state.
