Cruz lies again, showcasing his only talent.
Except, he want to replace it with TrumpCare. With the government paying for it, of course.
"What’s your plan for Obamacare?" Pelley asked Trump. "Obamacare’s going to be repealed and replaced," said Trump. "Obamacare is a disaster if you look at what’s going on with premiums where they’re up 40, 50, 55 percent." Pelley followed up:
Pelley: How do you fix it?
Trump: There’s many different ways, by the way. Everybody’s got to be covered. This is an un-Republican thing for me to say because a lot of times they say, "No, no, the lower 25 percent that can’t afford private. But–"
Pelley: Universal health care.
Trump: 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.
Pelley: The uninsured person is going to be taken care of. How? How?
Trump: They’re going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—
Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?
Trump: —the government’s gonna pay for it. But we’re going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it’s going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.
Repeat for Emphasis.....
NONSENSE!
I have it on good authority from some FReepers here on that Donald Trump wants complete UK-style single payer!!!!!!
Someone check for a large deposit into a bank account over seas...
No. Donald promises to repeal Obamacare and replace it with something great. Whatever the hell that means.
I am sure that Cruz, being the sinless person he is made out to be and cleansed by his consistent conservatism, will immediately apologize to Trump and run ads correcting his lies.
And Rush Limbaugh, who has been casting red flags of deception around Trump over this issue, will immediately spend the like amount of time on his show correcting his lies.
I’m holding my breath.
Use your money Donald, not mine.
Well if a blog says is then it must be true!
Donald Trump: Obamacare’s going to be repealed and replaced. Obamacare is a disaster if you look at what’s going on with premiums where they’re up 40, 50, 55 percent.

The problem for Trump is that he has not laid out a clear healthcare plan and then makes statement about covering everyone and the government paying for it.
So what does he mean by universal and govt run?
The Orange One only wants government health care on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays he favors the private market. (On Sundays, he eats his little cracker & drinks his wine).
Fact is Trump said that is what he would prefer.
He said it would be best.
Cruz IS dishonest. Even Joe Scarborough thinks so and said it this morning on tv. His new ad uses “damn” I’ve heard! Tsk-tsk, you psalm-singing fake!
When your own delegates call you a liar it is a pretty good bet that you are a liar.
How is that a lie?

Trump said as much, on VIDEO.
I retired after working 25 years for a city fire department. During that time I went on tens of thousands of medical aid calls and assisted in the transports of thousands and thousands of persons to the hospital. I hate to break it to people here but in my experience no one ever gets turned away... ever.
We had one alcoholic/ drug addict transient who lived on the streets of our town for many years. He was given a free apartment for a while but got himself kicked out. People on my department even got in trouble for taking up a collection and sending him back to the Indian reservation in North Dakota where he came from. His relatives sent him back almost immediately and complained.
The guy, ran up $2,000,000 in unpaid ambulance, hospital, and doctor fees. But still no one would turn him away. We were not allowed to by protocol. I am not sure if Mr. Trump, or Sen. Cruz, or Hillary Clinton or the rest of the candidates are aware of these types of situations, but in our country in my experience no one is denied emergency medical care. It just doesn’t happen and we all pay for it because the cost of the people who don’t pay are spread around to those of us who do one way or another.
A lot of what is said by the candidates about the low income and emergency medical care is just plain silly sounding to those who are health care providers.
The other thing that one notices is that people who go to the doctor for any little thing are on the average less healthy than those of us who avoid medical care as much as possible. If you keep going to the doctor... they will keep prescribing medicines or other medical procedures that often do not do much of anything to improve your health. The way to stay healthy is to live a healthy life style. Eat right, exercise, wash your hands, take care of your teeth, wear sun screen, avoid risky behaviors and locations, don’t smoke, and avoid alcohol and recreational drugs. You might still get sick or injured but your chances of staying healthy are a lot greater.
The Question is: Do you Believe Donald Trumps healthcare proposals?
