Opinion: So Trump wants to make the GOP the 'party of health care'? Here’s how to do it.

A crowd gathers in Pittsburgh on June 25, 2017, to hear Sen. Bernie Sanders speak about the failed U.S. Senate vote to repeal the Affordable Care Act. By Henry Olsen Henry Olsen Columnist focusing on politics, populism, and American conservative thought Email Bio Follow Columnist March 28 at 5:36 PM President Trump says he wants to make the Republican Party “the party of health care.

Ryan’s plan, and others modeled on it, was primarily lauded on the right because it solved the “entitlement crisis.” That crisis is real, but it is solely one of cost. Over time, growing health costs and an aging population are projected to drive up government expenditures dramatically. Paying for those added costs would require significant tax hikes, bringing U.S. tax levels much closer to those found in Canada or Britain.

Making Republicans the party of health care means reversing this image. It means putting the commitment to health care and financial security first and the goal of cost control second. Given the party’s decade-long inability to come up with an Obamacare replacement plan that does that, the president should be prepared to push his administration to develop and present such proposals on its own.

It is his only hope for election but I believe because of his hate for the workers and the children he will not be able to put together any thing beyond a get rich or get dead program, not that it matters, he will no doubt revoke anything he did to get reelected after election

AP Fact Check everything he says!

He wants to make it America's party, the democrats have become socialists and no longer care about America, they're the party of deranged Omar and AOC, baby-killers like Cuomo.

Here’s a giant middle finger to all socialists! You wouldn’t know how to fix anything related to health insurance

Why was Donald Trump to modifying Obama's Health Care plan? Did he, Trump thought he could make a better plan? In the whole world, the Health Plans are a real headache for their rulers, and with Trump, it would not be different.

By actually having a plan? Yeah, like the Republicans will so that. They’re the party of No, and they will never put people first.

Wait, you actually think he cares about health care? Thousands of people could die in the streets & he wouldn't bat an eye. Just like everything he does, this is dumb posturing with no strategy or concern for the wellbeing of the public behind it.

Here’s how to do it: Donald and 99% of the GOP resign.

What is the plan

First, who listens to that fool? He just makes things up out of air! Pence does too! It's insane!!!

As if WAPO knows crap about anything...

To get this info to him,U need to put it in a kids cartoon video with 🍔🍟in da background and run it as an Ad on fox news ,

Here’s an easy to fix health care in the US ... ...find out now for just $̶1̶0̶ $1 . . .

Put all the boomers in 1 state without medical treatment. So we can get on with fixing their fck ups.

It’s hard to believe that so many working class Americans believe that the RepubliCON party led by a New York City conman will ever do anything to help them.

Well, it ain't by making me pay to read your opinion. But, what do you care about my opinion. You owe me 20 bucks for that.

Good Lord.... please do this. One way he can guarantee a blue blowout is by focussing on his 'health care' no-plan. BlueBlowout

GOP senator explains how party wants to change health careSen. Bill Cassidy: 'I would just introduce a free-standing bill that protects people with pre-existing conditions. I'm a doc, I worked in a charity hospital system in Louisiana for 25 years. They should be protected. We all have pre-existing conditions.' How will he pay of it? What about everything else? OMG these Repubs just suck. Healthcare and Republicans are like oil and water. They don't mix. Any plan they come up with will cover as little as possible.

Opinion | If the GOP built their ideal health-care system . . . it’d be ObamacareThe Trump administration wants a federal court to declare the entire law unconstitutional — even the parts that people like. Bingo. really it wouldn't. Obama care was horrible I sure hope not. Forcing people to purchase something to pay for other people to get horrible medical service is about as bad as it gets.
