Dr. Umbehr

Worth a try for a whole bunch of people...maybe not all but a goodly bunch.

I’m convinced that Trump has followed through on his promises to date, under great attacks, and that he should be trusted in this to deliver again.

Are you going to trust Rand Paul? Mike Lee a #NeverTrumper? Jim Jordan — who refused to run for Paul Ryan’s speakership seat? The Freedom Caucus that complained but never took steps to take over the leadership?

I have a huge problem with the repeal conservatives. They want a 2 to 3 year delay before the repeal takes effect. I heard 2 years again on TV yesterday. This is a January article from hot air.

http://hotair.com/archives/2016/12/06/house-freedom-caucus-might-block-three-year-repeal-and-delay-plan-for-obamacare/

**[D]uring a retreat in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains over the weekend, Freedom Caucus members fumed at [the three-year] idea. Most said they wouldn’t settle for anything longer than a two-year replacement process, the time frame both chambers approved last year in an Affordable Care Act repeal bill that President Barack Obama vetoed.***

It is simple for me. Any repeal that is delayed or is only partially and kept on hold for 2 years means everything will be put at risk in another election in 2018. People could be so frustrated at continuing with ObamaCare or partial ObamaCare that we’ll lose house or senate. Then we’ll never get rid of it.

Trump and Price are saying do all we can now and then do more in 2 more phases.

Trump has been right all along! I’m trusting him and not the 2 year repeal people.

Supporters should stop and listen and make an effort to understand what’s going on. How many watched Price and Spicer explain the process yesterday at the press briefing??

“Trump did say many things that indicated he’s in favor of single-payer health insurance/care”

That’s a lie of omission. And you should know it by now.

I’m getting a little W deja vu here, with your blaming supporters. They’re as a group unhappy and that is a problem. The problem needs to be addressed. Explanations thus far have led to greater unhappiness. So, better get going on a better explanation, or maybe a better proposal would be a good idea?

That is how an unhappy supporter can fix the problem. If they do that they might no be unhappy.

On Jan. 15, 2017, for example, he said that he would “take care of everybody” and that “the government’s gonna pay for it.”

I’m not sure how else to interpret that but to see it as some kind of single-payer system.

Please understand that I’m not slamming President Trump. He is our president, and I support him. He’s been doing some wonderful things since taking office. We should be encouraging him to continue doing wonderful things.

I do, for example, want to have a conversation about where health care/insurance seems to be heading. I’m opposed to Obamacare, and want it completely repealed ... and then at some point laws put into place that facilitate free enterprise solutions. Surely you’re in favor of that too, right?

Ha, Tom Price. He's being a schmuck and something else.

The Independent caught it: Larger pile of paper bad, smaller pile good

The problem is, the smaller pile increases the size of the larger pile! This is a form of deception.

Apparently it didn’t sink in the first time.

Notice how many answer the question about watching the press briefing yesterday?? If people don’t want to take the time to get the information necessary to understand why the repeal/replace is being done the way it is they should withhold their unhappy opinions.

Yes, I tweeted back in response to this (to me, at least, offensive) Rand Paul tweet: Donald J. Trump‏Verified account @realDonaldTrump 16h16 -- I feel sure that my friend @RandPaul will come along with the new and great health care program because he knows Obamacare is a disaster!

Depends on the meaning of the word “repeal”

You are quoting Trump selectively and out of context. Post complete, in context, quotes from a primary sources.

Video is good, with a few minutes before and after the quotes you think are Trump supporting single payer.

You’re going to continue to place the onus upon voters, it’s their fault.

I’m telling you, that doesn’t work.

The Mark-Up meeting is imploding. Nobody can agree on HOW to roll-out the amendments. Total Dog and Pony Show.

Those who don’t take the time to watch the press briefing, read post 12, and understand why repeal/replace is being done the way it is are on the wrong bus.

Spouting opinion not rooted in reality is putting the cart before the horse.

So according to the media I listen to this supposed repeal of Obamacare is a three faceted deal. I think the approach taken is one that can open the door to many changes. What strikes me is the rollback of taxes and reigning in of the industry as a whole isn’t part of this equation. This only serves to help the political class in their promise to repeal the ACA. What’s needed is a complete repeal and implementation of an entirely new package. There won’t be any changes in premiums that’ll help everyday Americans like me.

If Trump is on board with this 100% I’m disappointed to say the least. But I guess anything is better than the current program. I just want to see my 1800 a month premiums for a family of 4 healthy people go down significantly.

I say Tom Price has the disease. This is what we want to clean out.
