Trump’s Obamacare Order Is Bigger Than You Think

It is no mere sop to his supporters nor is it a symbolic gesture.

On his first day in office, President Trump signed an executive order that directs “the Secretary of Health and Human Services and the heads of all other executive departments” to slow walk further implementation of Obamacare until he and Congress can repeal it. Because it was legally passed and signed into law, he couldn’t simply tell them to ignore the statute — as his predecessor would have — but much of what Obamacare’s apologists call “the law of the land” actually consists of regulations inferred from its hopelessly nebulous language. Thus he can, and did, order the bureaucrats to prevent further regulatory harm.

I would argue that it wasn't legally passed and could be halted immediately.

However I'm glad to see he's beginning to put the brakes on this disaster.

The problem...and one he needs to fix quickly...is the legion of bureaucrats in HHS that were put there by Obama that will ignore what Trump just said to do.

He's going to need to get his HHS Secretary...who in turn needs to hire a strong Chief of Staff...in place quickly to bring the department into line before any real subversive damage can be done under the radar to what Trump has ordered.

Good!  Can't possibly do any harm!
