‘OBAMACARE SUCKS!!!’ Trump Rants About New Plan — Years After He Promised It Was ‘Two Weeks’ Away
Former President Donald Trump ranted about repealing Obamacare and replacing it with “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” — a promise he’s made for more than 8 years without delivering.
When he’s not holding rallies where he generates headlines about parroting the language of Nazi leader Adolf Hitler or still thinking Obama is the president, or giving interviews along similar lines, Trump is a frequent poster to his Truth Social platform. While it lasts.
Those posts usually take the form of text rants with copious use of ALL CAPS WITH EXCLAMATION POINTS about things like “STOLLEN” elections.
On Wednesday morning, Trump went over some very familiar territory when he again slammed Obamacare and promised a better health care plan. Trump wrote:
Getting much better Healthcare than Obamacare for the American people will be a priority of the Trump Administration. It is not a matter of cost, it is a matter of HEALTH. America will have one of the best Healthcare Plans anywhere in the world. Right now it has one of the WORST!
…
I don’t want to terminate Obamacare, I want to REPLACE IT with MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE. Obamacare Sucks!!!
The posts could be in response to sustained attacks by the Biden-Harris campaign on Trump’s plans to deep-six Obamacare, focusing on the protections the legislation provides Americans. On Tuesday, the campaign released a detailed memo that included this statement from spokesperson Seth Schuster:
When Donald Trump says he would repeal the Affordable Care Act, he’s admitting that he is more than OK denying protections for roughly 135 million Americans with preexisting conditions. Whether you have cancer or diabetes, or are simply a woman, Trump’s plan means insurance companies would again be able to deny coverage for no reason at all – other than the fact that they can. But Donald Trump doesn’t care, because like everything in his life, he only cares about himself – and turns out, a billionaire doesn’t have to worry about his health insurance. The American people have rejected MAGA attempts to take away their health care election after election. November 2024 won’t be any different.
Trump has a long history of promising to deliver a wonderful new healthcare plan — including a “two-week” timeline that became a punchline — and failing to deliver.
