Two years later, what has his administration done to change the ACA, and who's been affected? Below are five of the biggest changes to the federal health law under President Trump.
1. Individual mandate eliminated
2. States allowed to add "work requirements" to Medicaid
3. Cost-sharing reduction subsidies to insurers have ended
4. Access to short-term "skinny" plans has been expanded
5. Funds to facilitate HealthCare.gov sign-ups slashed

So in other words:
1. Individual mandate eliminated = More choice (vs. NO choice) for American taxpayers. Should have been a no-brainer, but since the rats don't have a brain among them.....
2. States allowed to add "work requirements" to Medicaid = Put back in place after Obama took it out,

3. Cost-sharing reduction subsidies to insurers have ended = In other words, the deadbeats no longer get subsidized health care. I like it. Why should "some" get help while others struggle under the Democrats socialist schemes? And don't forget, Congress exempted themselves AND their staff due to unaffordability. Ironic, and the nth of hypocrisy.
4. Access to short-term "skinny" plans has been expanded = So... more choice for American taxpayers, despite the best efforts of the Democrats to, as usual, give Americans less choice or NO choice. Another plus!
5. Funds to facilitate HealthCare.gov sign-ups slashed = Um.... ok. I wanted the whole damned thing repealed. But whatever.
