Note to BI: It’s not a healthcare plan.
It’s an insurance revamp.
If it involves what I think it does, then no, not here we go again :-)
This is a huge issue that a lot of Americans believe is an important issue based on polling data. The polling also shows that the Rats have this issue in an overwhelming way. Many on this db might want to ignore the health Insurance issue but Trump cannot. Trump has to balance this issue between those 156 million that have decent employer insurance plans and those that need better plans.
Big League! And PDJT just might succeed this time, what with John McCain mouldering under the sod.
I hope its better than the former sell out to the Insurance Companies designed by that anti Trump idiot, former Speaker Paul D Ryan, who was owned by the Insurance Lobby via his wife’s family, and she a Lefty Dem.
How about a phenomenal wall?
In my modestly well-informed opinion, it was the promise of a national health care plan that carried Michigan, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
It will be interesting to see what he comes up with.
President Trump is bringing this up as a campaign issue. There’s no way the Dems in Congress will consider it.
PDJT, secure the damn border.
Oh Ye of little faith, begone.
Trump is carrying the entire conservative movement on his back.
The one and only thing I give congress credit for is the judges.
This is a big deal, because they and their opinions will outlast both the current congress as well as the current President.
You didn't even wait to see a single detail of his proposal, before you began to denigrate it.
Gutless. It is exactly what nervous nancy will do.
It is true that suburban females seem to be the demographic that swung the balances away from the results in 2016 to the loss of 2018 and it is the womenfolk who are perennially preoccupied about healthcare. They are the caregivers, they are the ones who keep track of these things in almost every family. To them, healthcare access to healthcare and paying for healthcare are fundamental, driving issues.
Therefore, I can understand the reasoning which leads the Republicans to have something on the table for the 2020 election. It had better be good or it will backfire. If it is not better than good, the media will make it worse than Russia-gate.
The problem is, if it is good enough to make suburban females happy, as the perception among them is created by the media, it will inevitably be too expensive and it will offend some portion of the Republican base.
if the media can convince these suburban women that the plan falls short, it backfires.
This whole thing is an entitlement. When I was a kid there wasn’t anything like health insurance. You got sick, you called the doc, he came out to the house, and you paid out of your pocket. You planned and saved for issues like this. Health insurance is not a Godsend, it is a business like car or home insurance. It makes money for the insurer. And the public has been led to believe it is an entitlement so someone else can cover the majority of the cost which went up because of the cost of malpractice insurance. We aren’t even done with one screw up in this with the Affordable Care Act that raised prices on healthcare and Trump wants to do the same thing. Stay out of it, Trump.

Pointless unless he wants to attract the few moderates out there.
It is never going to pass the House and unlikely the Senate.
If it involves leaving the middlemen in, then it is more of the same.
I have nver seen a health insurer perform cpr, or sugery. They are middlemen denying care and raking in the taxpayer cash.
Worsee than they.. they have made untold sums of taxpayer cash for “administering” medicare.
End the insurer gravy train before it kills us all.
Taking in and adding 10 thousand illegals and their offsprings offspring is also bankrupting our care for the least able.
Praying for real solutions and not bipartisan caves to medicare for all.
Here’s a phenomenal plan - free market capitalism.
Obama, the RATs, & nadless GOP “destroyed” our medical industry. Does your doctor speak without a thick accent? Do you get more than 10 minutes with your doctor? Can you get into a specialist without waiting months? Are you being asked a lot of personal questions that go into a national database? Is your data secure? NO
God willing, President Trump will fix it. Bring the manufacturing of medications aka generics back into the USA where they must be inspected so we know what’s truly in them. If you doubt this is an issue, I recommend you find out where your drugs are being made as in China or some third-world hole? With what chemicals in them, e.g., cancer causing ingredients anyone? Side effects anyone?
Close the border. Send the invaders back.
