Morning Joe Mocks Trump’s Claim He Doesn’t Want to Kill Obamacare With Damning Montage of Trump Pledging to Kill Obamacare
The producers behind MSNBC’s Morning Joe did some heavy lifting to illustrate just how former President Donald Trump has shifted his position on the Affordable Care Act (also known as Obamacare) by airing a damning montage of his past pledges to kill the widely popular health care program.
“I’m not running to terminate the ACA, as Crooked Joe Biden says all over the place,” Trump recently averred in a video posted on Truth Social. “I’m running to close the border, stop inflation, make our economy great, strengthen our military, and make the ACA or Obamacare as it’s sometimes known. Much better, stronger, and far less expensive because it’s much too expensive now and it’s not very good.”
If that position sounds significantly different from past comments Trump made about his plans for Obamacare, then Morning Joe brought the receipts to support that feeling. They aired a montage of Trump saying the exact opposite, to wit:
We’re going to create great health care. We’re going to get rid of Obamacare. We’re going to terminate it.
We’re going to win by knocking the hell out of Obamacare, terminating it
With Obamacare. Getting back to the boring subject. It’s almost a waste of time talking about it because when we terminate it, all we’ll do is say it was a bad experience for the American people.
We are decimating Obamacare. We got a bad vote this evening. We got a bad vote the evening that we were going to terminate Obamacare,
Hopefully will win at the Appellate Division and go to the Supreme Court to terminate Obamacare.
We want to terminate Obamacare because it’s bad. Look, we’re running it really well, but we know it’s defective.
What we are doing is we want to terminate health care for under Obamacare because it’s bad.
We almost got it done. But John McCain voted against it. That was a bad day. Remember that? Thumbs down after campaigning for ten years. Thumbs down everybody.
