Julián Castro embarked on a fierce line of attack against Joe Biden over healthcare during Thursday night's Democratic debate, culminating in him accusing the former vice president of forgetting what he said during the debate.
“I want every single American family to have a strong Medicare plan available,†Castro, 44, said before adding that he does believe people should be able to “choose to hold on to strong, solid private health insurance.â€
“But the difference between what I support and what you support, Vice President Biden, is that you require them to opt-in,†Castro said, noting that under his plan, people would be automatically enrolled. “Barack Obama’s vision was not to leave 10 million people uncovered; he wanted every single person in this country covered. My plan would do that, your plan would not.â€
“They do not have to buy in,†Biden, 76, responded.
“You just said that two minutes ago,†Castro shot back as Biden shook his head and said, “You do not have to buy in if you can’t afford it.â€
