President Trump on Saturday threatened to end health care “bailouts” for insurers and lawmakers in Washington as he continues to push Congress to pass legislation repealing ObamaCare.

“If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!” Trump tweeted Saturday afternoon.

Exactly. That is my one criticism of Trump, I’m hearing a lot of talk, but I’m not seeing the actions. It’s great that he’s against Trannies in the armed forces, but has it actually been implemented?

Should’ve been done four months ago! 0bolacare would not presently exist. Force those cretins onto the same plan that their “plebes” are forced onto and watch how quickly this debacle will be repealed.

“Roll back Medicaid expansion. That will save real money”

BTTT.

However, the elephants never seem to roll back anything. They cry faux crocodile tears when Dims enact a new freebie program but never try to roll it back when they have the numbers to do so.

Mr. T - just do it!

This do-nothing Congress is making you look like a fool. You need to put a stop to that. The wall hasn’t been started, few are getting deported. There are no tax cuts, businesses are not rushing back – and all because this Congress won’t back the agenda that people want from you.

You can only count on having two years of so-called Republican Congress backing you. It’s over six months now, you only have 18 months left. Time is a wasting.

A new tactic — instead of a government shutdown a HEALTHCARE shutdown.

Hm ... I don’t know how this will turn out.

50/50 it helps/hurts Trump. It depends largely on communication skills and access. He would be shrewd to express empathy toward specific people and how he is trying to help them.

“Why is it a “ threat” to have Congress live with the same rules and same system as they passed ( and refuse to repeal) for common Americans?”

Not only congress, but every federal employee. And if they choose to go on their spouses plan, there is a sliding scale penalty based on salary, benefits and investments.

Make it hurt so bad that they will come begging to end it.

Whipping boys for the forced slavery body mortgages, subprimebody mortgages. They all knew the total would fall short before the vote.

Side note.
Observe also the multiple interest rate hikes now that Trump is in office vs. previous. Trying to make Trump the fall guy.
