I’m not sure you’re tracking the subject very well. Trump essentially avers that he’ll continue the mandate and will make Obamacare better. He says the government will pay for it. And he says he’s not heartless like Republicans who let people die on the streets. Nothing about tort reform. Nothing about more doctors. Nothing about anything that will bring greater efficiency to the medical world. It’s all going to YUGE though.
In the context of the interview he was discussing insuring those with pre-existing conditions. Trump has repeated said hundreds of times that he wants Obamacare repealed and replaced. He has mentioned HSAs, selling insurance across state lines, etc.
The reality is that Congress will have to act first. The President can't repeal anything without something from Congress. I am tired hearing political candidates with all these detailed plans about tax reform, healthcare, etc., Just like battle plans go out the window after first contact with the enemy, there will be plenty of horse-trading just to get something thru Congress. That was true of Obamacare as well.

You don't seem to understand the role of a President and how he reacts with Congress. It really is silly to get down in the weeds., The only ones it impresses are policy wonks and nerds. The average voter could care less about the minutiae. I guess Trump will have to present a detailed plan about the construction of the fence, i.e., the materials used, height, width, costs, construction plan, etc.
Trump is a manager who sets the overall objective. In this case it is repeal and replace Obamacare. The details will be worked out. Next issue.
