President Trump said Tuesday Republicans "can't run away from healthcare" as a political issue and must campaign on a comprehensive reform plan ahead of the 2020 election.
"You're going to win your elections because of healthcare," Trump said during a dinner in Washington hosted by the National Republican Congressional Committee.
Trump did not provide specifics about the healthcare plan he wants Republicans to run on, but he said it must be more useful than Obamacare and protect people with preexisting conditions.
"We're going to come up with a healthcare plan. We are not going to vote on it until after the election. We are all going to promise it's going to be our first vote. Because we blew it the last time. Man, I was sold a bill of goods," Trump said, referring to failed efforts to "repeal and replace" Obamacare.
