Courtesy of HuffPo:Since Congress can't get its act together on HealthCare, I will be using the power of the pen to give great HealthCare to many people - FAST— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 10, 2017
President Donald Trump has already done a lot to sabotage the Affordable Care Act, whether it’s slashing the program’s advertising budget or threatening to cut off some payments that insurers need to cover their costs.
Now Trump is thinking about using his executive authority to do something that could be even more damaging to the law ― and, arguably, more threatening to people who depend on it for coverage.
Sometime in the next few days, according to a report in The Wall Street Journal, Trump is likely to instruct three key agencies to rewrite a series of regulations that affect health insurance. Some of the details were still in flux as of the weekend, sources familiar with the proposal told HuffPost. But the ultimate goal of these efforts would be to accomplish through executive action what, so far, Trump and the Republican Congress have been unable to pull off through legislation. Specifically, they would undermine the rules that guarantee comprehensive coverage to people with pre-existing conditions.
By his own admission Trump was surprised that healthcare was so hard, so how could ANYBODY possibly think that he could make it better with an executive order.
All Trump care about is undoing everything that Obama accomplished, but what he fails to understand is that once he does anything to change health care every problem that arises after that will be blamed on him, and the Republicans party.
It will be terrible for people currently on Obamacare of course, but ultimately this idiot might be handing the Democrats the tools they need to take back the House, Senate, and White House.
And then folks it is single payer all the way.
