President Donald Trump wants to eliminate HIV in the U.S., contain the opioid crisis and lower the cost of prescription drugs — but all of those need Obamacare to be successful. And Trump just promised to kill it.
Even members of Trump’s team have raised red flags. Outgoing FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb said Thursday that overturning Obamacare could thwart an initiative to get cheaper forms of insulin on the market. Carl Schmid, an AIDS Institute leader and co-chair of Trump’s HIV advisory board, called the ACA decision “an unfortunate distraction from ending the HIV epidemic initiative.”

The HIV and opioid crises are intertwined because HIV infections have increased with people sharing needles for injecting drugs. Any Obamacare changes that hurt one of those efforts will have serious ramifications for the other.
You don't say
Wait. He has a health agenda? Bahahahaha! Sure🙄
realDonaldTrump TRUMP IS SO JEALOUS OF OBAMA THAT HE IS WILLING TO CANCEL THE ACA AND HURT MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WITH NO REPLACEMENT. TRUMPCARE IS A FAKE AND LAUGHABLE IGNORANT FRAUD! WHY DON’T YOU REPUBLICAN SENATORS GET A BACKBONE AND REFUSE THIS
He doesn’t see that end. His eyes only see the end of Obama legacy. He has not idea that Obama’s best legacy is in the people heart.
His health ‘agenda’ hasn’t changed. It is the same as all of his agendas. 1. Get as much petty revenge upon his enemies 2. Inflict as much suffering on them and their supporters. 3. Enrich himself in the process while committing 1 & 2 Repeat
The only agenda Trump has is to dismantle anything that has Obama's name on it. If we are left with no health care plan, he's ok with that. He and his cronies can afford THEIR health care.
there is NOTHING legally called by that name.. it is the ACA... and no one killed the pre existing...
Talk about April fools...
Trump's health agenda can be summed up in three word, let them die. Anyone who believes he cares about anything but himself is living in a fantasy.
trump has a a health agenda?
False facts
Democrats promised they'd kill Obamacare didn't they? Democrats made a concerted effort to lie and voted not to run on Obamacare for the mid-terms. Medicare for All was the marching orders till after they had won.
So, no government sponsored healthcare? Aw, shucks.
Someone should tell him that killing Obamacare wont keep him from being weighed at his annual physical.
he doesn't care about healthcare - no matter if it is his or Obama's plan - he just said he had a plan so people vote for him
If that's what it takes to murder ObamaCare then Donald is all in....he'll take his own hand if need be. Maybe if it would kill his wall, then maybe it would go the other way!
Obamacare is D.O.A. It failed miserably and the courts have pronounced, the ACA has expired. The industry hates all the paperwork it costs dodo birds and the burden is not worth the headache. Doctors want patients, not government peddling overreach. Paper Burden Kills Our Chance.
60 million people lose healthcare MAGA
He has no healthcare plan.
More hate-trump media. Leftist propaganda media still has learned nothing. Lol
He is so stupid.
He has an agenda?
Still not worth it.
Obacare jest odpowiedzią na Trump ci czego chciałeś dokonać .. Ty komunistyczna dziwko pierdolona
Nie zabiję obamacare
She's got the gavel and she's not afraid to use it!
On this April Fool’s Day, let’s celebrate plagiarist Meredith McIver, who wrote trump’s emails for him for years and who Trump said “has heard everything, and taken great notes,” yet no reporter ever saw fit to interview her…or even LAY EYES on her
