Tricky Ted’s last minute before the vote sleaze express. Just like the Iowa smears on Carson & Trump from Senator Principled Conservative. We have seen this beltway mud slinging movie before.
Yes, his clarification is that “I was referring to a backstop for pre-existing conditions,” and that he will “eliminate the law, in its entirety, & replace it w/ something much better” - namely “private plans, health savings accounts, & allow purchasing across state lines.”
Of course, he doesn’t explain how his “backstop for pre-existing conditions” will fit into his broader plan, or how he will manage to create a “backstop for pre-existing conditions” without creating a YUGE incentive for people to forego insurance until they need it. But, I guess pesky little details like that don’t matter. Even if they could take down the entire market.
It's a full-time job for him, in addition to making remarks that require clarification.
