The very premise of Obamacare was flawed, and in fact, it was never even designed to work for an extended period of time. But now that Congress has failed to do away with it, the president is going “Full-Tilt” in his plans to make the “No” voters pay.
On Saturday, he Tweeted:
If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!
At first, it may just seem reactionary, but this is a major threat that will hit the Democrats right where it hurts: in the demographics! Because it is not the middle class white folk that are negatively impacted by the highs and lows of Obamacare, it is the key Democrat demographics. 40% of the people who are not insured under OC are Hispanic. Much of this is due to doing “casual work”, but at least 5 million remain off the books because of issues with their immigration status.

Absolutely. Quit punishing the republican base in order to reward the democrat base.
end exemptions for congress and staff. bring criminal charges for lying about their small business claims.
burn it down
It’s not revenge, it’s strategy. It’s a good one at that. He needs to include dropping Congressswamprats from the freedom from Obamacare dole, too.
I would say he go one step further and have it apply to all laws and regulations, especially insider trading. With the focus now on this, how many people would really be surprised to find out that DC does not have to play by the same rules that everyone outside of DC has to? How would the swamp justify fighting it?
BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!.
Wonder if the bone heads will do something now other than whine?.
Less jawing, more doing—Cut off the dough and let them howl.
Just got another premium increase notice last week.
I can no longer afford health insurance.
I’m sure Linda will immediately draft a bill to prevent the President from doing that
I disagree, we can SAVE Obamacare, we just need to Fully Implement it and give the Uniparty exactly what they are asking for.
I believe President Trump should Call their Bluff and Force the Issue.
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
OBAMACARE Can be Saved!!
There are about 22 MILLION Public Employee’s Nationwide that are Ineligible for Subsidies, this infusion of New Paying Customers will SAVE OBAMACARE. the SEIU and every other Public Employee UNION fully Endorse Obamacare and have held numerous rallies in support thereof.
Let’s Give them what they want!
I believe our Public Employees deserve the Best Health Care America has to offer, and that is the Official Government Health Care Plan, Obamacare. So why don’t you quit pussyfooting around and Proudly Proclaim your desire to see that ALL Federal Employees receive the Finest, Most Affordable Health Care the US has to offer, OBAMACARE.
All the Money currently wasted on these inferior high priced cadillac plans can be diverted to the Wall.
There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:
Executive Orders or Legislation, the chance of CONgress doing it are the same as OJ Confessing, so I am choosing Executive Orders.
1. All waivers to the Affordable Care act are hereby repealed.
2. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.
3. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Services, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.
4. There shall be NO Medicaid Reimbursement funds allocated to any State that does not have 100% of their Public Employees enrolled in the Affordable Care Act.
And to make sure it is Bipartisan, President Trump should VETO it every Time and FORCE them to Override his Veto to Repeal this Monstrosity.
Sign these 4 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days.
NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
Quit threatening, Mr. President.
Just DO IT !
Murkowski and Collins? We need to know who owns them. We should've known before the vote. I think I know who ultimately owns McCain.
WHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?
Make all the Congresscritters play by the SAME RULES as the rest of the peons??
THE HORROR!! THE HORROR!! THE HORROR!!
OFF WITH HIS HEAD!
You make an excellent point. One of the things we expected of President Trump is to follow through on decisions. He did it on stopping the arming of Syrian "freedom fighters" (about time), and it left the pro-war coalition speechless.
Mr. President, please don’t pull a red line threat without doing it. I mean, these low lifes should be forced to use the same health insurance they are forcing on the public.
Why should we be subsidizing insurance companies. Get the federal gov’t out of health care period!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nike them...that is ‘just do it’.
Cut the bailouts and we need a group to run ads in Alaska, Maine, and Arizona with clips of their senator claiming they would repeal and replace Obamacare at the end of the clip say......but they LIED when they had the chance to help fix it, they voted no
Hitting congress and hitting crony-capitalist insurance companies will increase his popularity by at least 10 points
....BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon...
Not just for elected officials there. It includes thousands of Congressional support personnel getting tax free subsidies too thanks to the Obama Executive Order.
Revenge??? Do they even know what the word means???
All these years, they have lied to us, cheated us, wiped their feet on us, until voter time that is then they are our best friends...
They haven’t met a person like Our President, he doesn’t say or do anything that he hasn’t thought about and decided which way to use his insight...
NOW they are going to have a tantrum the likes you have never seen before, but guess what...Obama’s EO that permitted this mess with government officials getting free care or care outside the mess they created will be re done...
I would say it’s going to be this coming Friday’s afternoon drop that will again take over the news for the weekend, Our President has a habit of doing this, media chasing their tails again...oh the sweet life we are starting to see before our very eyes...A President who is fighting 24/7 for us...how great it is!!!
