Trump to 60 Minutes: single payer health care
The Examiner ^ | September 28, 2015 | Gary Gross

Posted on 12/29/2015 10:55:34 PM PST by TBP

ccording to the transcript of Donald Trump's interview with Scott Pelley on 60 Minutes, Mr. Trump favors a single payer health care plan in certain situations. During the interview, Pelley asked Mr. Trump what his plan was to replace Obamacare would look like. Mr. Trump responded, saying "I am going to take care of everybody. I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now." When Pelley pressed Mr. Trump further about who would pay for this coverage, Mr. Trump said "the government’s gonna pay for it."

Sorry...

When I see you praising ObamaCare...

I can't see you seriously saying you don't want GOVERNMENT in control.

I like that, but watch out for the ricochets when that logic hits extremely hard objects!

Touts Massachusetts single payer plan (please recall Jonathan Gruber)


"We as a nation need to reexamine the single payer plan..." Reliance on employers for health insurance is a problem


A direct endorsement of single payer.

Well you could be wrong. That is a rational alternative that exists outside the too few alternatives logical fallacy.

>>That “everbody” will be covered “by the government.” It nowhere says that.

As I said before, when you asked what the government’s gonna pay for under Trump: the uninsured. That is the government expansion, the government paid for universal healthcare. Everybody’s got to be covered, the government pays for the uninsured.

The “everybody” is from his statement: ‘Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say..’

I’m not relying on the Examiner. Again, read the transcript here:

One thing I’ll say for NoPardons is that he sure adds a lot more than Cruz supporters do on Trump threads.

Obamacare in my mind, was a good start. We needed something like Obamacare to fix the (huge, massive even) problems we had allowed into our otherwise pretty fair system of healthcare in America.

Now we need to have Obamacare fixed.

It is a massive, expensive, and statist monstrosity. But it did well, in some ways.

What I am saying is keep the parts of Obamacare in such as way that it protects the people who used to be left off coverage.

How, is another question. But we need to cover everyone.

Everyone.

Somehow.

Yes, I’ve seen you post the identical link many times now. But feel free to continue posting it over, and over, and over again.

As I said before,

What you say, but what you prove, are very different things.

How is your complaint consistent when the liar is Trump? That’s basically the only thing he is consistent about. He funded the lying Clintons (scientificcally proven, by the way, unless you’re a support of Bill, too), he lied either when he praised them or now when he says they’re awful (one or the other), he lied to his two previous wives when he said “for better or worse,” not exactly a traditional Christian conservative approach. Face it. Deep down he’s part of the same elitist situational ethics and sleaze as the Clintons. He’s supported Emminent domain and crushing small property owners to get him richer, but now is the supporter of the little man. Please. He’s a liar and a fraud assuming the character of a conservative.

Excellent encapsulation that you made in your post above.
Republican supporters must "debate fairly" in coming months.
Even if "your guy"(whomever he or she might be) is not the nominee you wish...that future Republican will be a FAR BETTER situation than Clinton, Sanders, or O'Malley.

You cannot read that post and understand it, then come back and say what you did.

You need to fully understand that post.

I’ve provided the information so you can understand.

Please study it.

I posted the quote and the link.

If you have a rebuttal, let me know. If not, that’s fine too.

Of course you’re not. You don’t want to know.

How much more obvious can it be.

I did read your post. I don’t see where it contradicts my position. He’s for both at the same time. And they contradict.

I see what you get from Trump, but I think your seeing one half of what he says, and the most recent half.

We may never agree on this.
