Did you know that his Canadian and Scotish health care comments date from 1999? He came up with them by that year, and included them in his book published in January 2000. They’re fifteen years old.

Trump praised Canadian and Scottish single payer health care in the Aug. 6, 2015 debate.

That's about three weeks old.

What is he proposing today? Is that unreasoned to ask, or point to? Does it matter that he is pushing a private sector solution? Does it matter that he wants to drop state lines and allow insurance companies to compete nationwide? Does it matter that he has said he wants to see competition lower policy costs and broaden the numbers of different polices available? Evidently not, because I don’t see any praise for the direction he sees the nation heading after Obamacare is dumped. I only see folks continuing to hawk his thoughts from 2000 to 2008.

If he said right now that he wanted to see people covered like Canada or Scotland, would that mean that he doesn’t really mean he wants a private sector solution? Would it mean he wants single-payer?

If so, why does he want state lines dropped and insurance companies to compete nation-wide? Why would he reference competing costs or a proliferation of different policies? Is that compatible with single-payer?
