It’s all OK, after all, he’s “a little bit different”...
TRANSCRIPT
COOPER: If Obamacare is repealed and thereâs no mandate for everybody to have insurance whatâs to⦠and why would insurance company not have a pre-existing insure somebodyâ¦
TRUMP: I like tne mandate. Okay, so hereâs how Iâm a little bit different. I donât want people dying on the streets and I say this all the time. And I say this⦠Look I did five speeches maybe six speeches today we had a lot of rallies with thousands and thousands of people. I mean we get big crowds. Everytime I talk about this I get standing ovations. The Republican people, theyâre wonderful people, they donât want people dying on the streets. Sometimes they say, âDonald Trump wants single-payer.â Because there is a group of people, as good as these plans are, and by the way your insurance will go way down youâll have better players, youâll get your own doctor
COOPER: Whichâ¦
TRUMP: Obama lied. Remember thisâ¦
COOPER: A person with a pre-existing condition should be able to get insurance?
TRUMP: Yes. Obama lied when he said youâre gonna keep your plan, you get to keep your doctor. I was a pure lie. Frankly many democrats went along only because they believed him. He lied twenty-eight times. Twenty-eight times he said it. Twenty-eight times. If that were in the private sector you be sued for fraud. Okay? He lied to get the plan through. He got it through and itâs turned out to be a disaster. The wrong people are buying it. You know whatâs happening. Itâs dead. Itâs gonna⦠Look, ObamaCare is dead. Itâs gonna be repealed, gonna be replaced. But I will say this, Anderson, if we donât do something quickly you can have a health care problem that you⦠like youâve never seen before in this country. Now the new plan is good, itâs going to be inexpensive, itâs going to be much better for the people. But thereâs gonna be a group of people at the bottom people that havenât done well, people that donât have any money that wonât be able to be taken care of. Weâre gonna take care of them through maybe concepts of medicare. We have hospitals that arenât doing well. We have doctors arenât doing well. You cannot let people die on the street, okay? Now some people would say âthatâs not a very Republican thing to say.â Every time I say this at a rally, or even today I said it, once again a standing ovation, I said, you know, the problem is everybody thinks that you people as Republicans hate the concept of taking care of people that are really, really sick and are gonna die. And thatâs not single-payer, by the way, thatâs called âheart.â Weâve gotta take care of people that canât take care of themselves. But the plans will be much less expensive than Obamacare, theyâll be far better than Obamacare, youâll get your doctor you get everything you want to get, itâll be unbelievable. [Italics are mine, read this a couple of times.] But youâve got to get rid of the lines. Youâve got to have competition. those people that are left, we gotta help them live and everybody likes it when I say it, and that includes Republicans and itâs not single-payer.
Even in the mogul's own words he says he changes his spots to take any position to get "any kind of deal". You are looking at a man who will more than likely cut all kinds of RINO deals with the DEMOCRAPS on Capitol Hill, rather than the scorched earth, unapologetic Conservatism we need urgently to undo Obama's treachery. So you know what I think about this so-called "Common Sense Conservatism". As if there is Conservatism that is nonsense, or somehow lacking in "common sense"?! He equivocates right and left as to who he likes and dislikes, or his stance, particularly modified when he commits a gaffe that he later has second thoughts on.
Caveat friggin Emptor, guys.
“CRUZ or LOSE!”
Looks like you’ll get your wish tomorrow!
Unless the US Senate is stacked with 60 elderly tycoons from NY with orange comb-overs Trump will be hard pressed to get anything passed
Every time I read a Trump quote I have to do a double take, and think that it has to be someone making fun of Trump.
Then I look at the video and the quote is actually what Trump said. He has a real hard time keeping a train of thought together within 2 sentences.
