 Trump vows to replace ObamaCare with his own alternative
by Sarah Fortinsky - 12/25/23 5:09 PM ET

Former President Trump vowed Monday to replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA) with his own “much better” alternative program, reviving his push to slash the now-popular health care option used by millions of Americans.

“Obamacare is too expensive, and otherwise, not good healthcare,” Trump, the front-runner for next year’s GOP presidential nomination, wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social.

“I will come up with a much better, and less expensive, alternative! People will be happy, not sad!”

While attacking President Obama’s signature health care law had once been a popular political message among GOP voters, the law now has significant support across the country, with 60 percent of Americans holding a favorable view of the health law.

After several failed “repeal and replace” efforts in Congress and a number of losing battles in court, Republicans have largely given up on the issue, focusing instead of issues such as the economy and crime.

Last month, Trump similarly resurfaced his criticism of the health care law, catching many GOP lawmakers off guard when pressed by reporters on his policy proposal.

This sounds like something a 4th grader would say when asked to give a speech as President.

Here's a better idea.  Get the federal government the hell out of the health care business.

Yep, the only thing that will lower costs is remove government from the process.

Trump has always been for big government intervention. The only difference is his priorities of big government programs. In short, a different flavor of the same thing.

This is a prime example of why Trump isn't the answer to runaway government.

But his supporters are OK with it because they believe that he will grow it on their behalf

It is amazing to witness the contrast between TEA Party Conservatives and Big Government Trump supporters.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
