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 donât care if it costs me votes or not. Everybodyâs going to be taken care of much better than theyâre taken care of now." When Pelley pressed Mr. Trump further about who would pay for this coverage, Mr. Trump said "the governmentâs gonna pay for it."

And how well do tehy work? Not very well.
Seniors love Medicare & so do the poor!
Teh other candidates whom you disparage favor conservative, market-oriented reforms, unlike Mr. Trump, apparently.
He walks everythign bak eventually, like a politician.
He walks everything back eventually, like a politician.
If he isn't, then he's one of the worst flip-floppers in politics. In one of the debates, he praised single payer, famously saying that it worked well in Scotland. So either he's not telling us the truth or he's done a total 180 in just a few months.
Typical politician. Reminiscnet of Etch A Sketch.
Oh. Ok. Who’s really going to fix obamacare? Rubio?
What exactly is Cruz going to do?
Anyway, this video is months old. It was brought out to detract
Nice try, but that’s clearly NOT what he was saying.
Some do; there are many who don’t.
LOL

If you weren’t from your other posts so anti-Trump, I’d suggest a little remedial reading work.
But methinks you just have an agenda.
My agenda is to gt people to think about all aspects of all the candidates’ records before committing to one.
It’s about record, not rhetoric. Pure and simple.
Thanks DO for the reference. Your post has all the right “ingredients!”
Go Trump!
Sounds to me like he’s saying everybody will be covered one way or another. If it was single payer he wouldn’t be talking about private companies and competition. And it’s dishonest to quote a couple lines out of context and spin it into something he never said, “single payer”> But you don’t care what he was actually saying, you just want a talking point.
That’s one tree, there is more to the forest. People shouldn’t get stuck starting at one tree until they are so cross-eyed they think that fuzzy thing they see is the forest. It’s not. It’s a way of shooting one’s self in the foot.
Could you write that in English, please?
*Sigh* That is in plain English, now I know why some of this conversational disconnect happens.
