"In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!" Trump says
While the government shutdown continues, President Trump on Sunday urged Senate Republicans to send the Obamacare subsidy money directly to taxpayers rather than to the insurance companies.
"I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
"In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare. Unrelated, we must still terminate the Filibuster!" he added.
Senate Democrats are advocating for a one-year extension of the Obamacare premium subsides that they put in place during the pandemic when former President Biden was in office.
Trump and Senate Republicans have argued that Democrats should support the temporary funding bill that would reopen the government and negotiate healthcare issues separately.
Trump has said the Senate GOP should eliminate the 60-vote threshold to pass legislation in order to reopen the government.

Exactly what needs to be done. Get the insurance companies out of it entirely. There is no reason for the health insurance market to exist in its current form.
How many officials - Left and Right - cater to those ‘big bad’ insurance companies? 🙄
Man, medical marijuana has made all my problems go up in smoke.
That Trump dude is the greatest.
Miss, excuse me, Mr. Trans is just so pleased.
The GOP and the President need to be communicating to voters that the “draconian” premium increases that Schumer and others are demagoging are the natural and intended product of Obamacare, working exactly as expected. Trump tried to repeal Obamacare in his 1st term, but Sen. McCain thwarted that. The Supreme Court ruled that a tax was not a tax to rescue Obamacare, and all other efforts to stop it have likewise failed. What we have is Obamacare exactly as written. They “bent the oust curve down”... Shove all of that in the face of Democrats trying to argue that we need to continue short-term emergency subsidies from the Covid crisis era.
You’ve got a golden mouth,Leroy!
They blew my money on tests to verify what was in my medical report already.
My drug costs $30K a year, Trump gave me $5K.
Okay, this is about as clear as mud. Whatever Trump’s idea is, he has to spell it out a lot more clearly than this.
Mr. President, we need to changes laws and regs to enable any HCPs who want to leave their health systems and go
into independent practice.
We also need catastrophic coverage.
And not just for the young’uns.
The ultimate fix is mass health savings accounts.
I’ve never met a person with an HSA who disliked it. Prices are so much cheaper, service is faster cause no insurance or government paperwork, and doctors are happier.(they don’t have to do excess paperwork either)
The progressive-era invention of employer-based insurance has been an utter disaster. And would you expect anything less from the progressives? All they are capable of doing is ruination.
Then we would only need insurance companies for rare catastropic things. Which is exactly where insurance companies should be. Kept in a box, far far away from anybody.
Hilarious!
The proposal will not even elicit a comment from a Senator in the majority.
Much less a committee hearing lol
I couldnt get insurance before Obamacare because of Sleep Apnea. That’s right. I was repeatedly turned down.
Thank goodness for Obamacare when i went through my ovarian cancer scare when Doctors were convinced I had ovarian cancer.
So exactly what is suppose to happen to those that dont work for anyone else and don’t have a company that has at least two people and who make too much money to be on medicaid?
Make demonicRATS and Rabid Paul (but I repeat myself) explain why MULTI-BILLION DOLLAR CORPORATIONS should get that money.
I do agree with that. HSA’s plus catastrophic are the way to go.
Sounds like part of a great plan to me.
To add to it, let’s make insurance nation wide instead of by the state where it is divide and conquer the crooked state insurance commissions. The places where insurance is $210 a month for Part G in one state and $44 in another.
“ Then we would only need insurance companies for rare catastropic things”
Just think how expensive car maintenance would be if every time you got your oil changed, it had to go through an insurance company. Especially if you were on something likeMedicare where everything goes through Medicare and your back up plan. The amount of paperwork is incredible.
If that's what you want to do, you can do it starting tomorrow.
OK.
