1. We know Trump is not opposed to single payer (his comments on Canada and Scotland)
2. We he says he is willing to work with Democrats on health care.
3. We know that Democrats aren’t going to repeal.
4. We know that no one is going to give up the coverage for those with a pre-existing condition.
What other options are there?
I don’t think Trump will go all the way to single-payer. He won’t find any Republican support there and he needs some.
But I think he could pull close to 100 Republicans to follow him on either a public option or vastly expanded Medicaid.
Reagan was willing to work with Democrats to get his agenda done as well.
Trump knows there are free market solutions to getting those covered with pre-conditions.
There will be no expansion of Medicaid or a public option, Obamacare will collapse and it will be replaced with a free market alternative.
