Trump SAVAGES Obama for Obamacare Lies: ‘He Knew He was Lying!’ [VIDEO]
The Politistick ^ | 07/19/2017 | Matthew K. Burke

Posted on 07/19/2017 5:26:48 PM PDT by ForYourChildren

President Donald Trump laid into former President Barack Obama on Wednesday in a meeting with Senate Republicans after RINO Leader Mitch McConnell’s failure to repeal the Obamacare debacle.

Not pulling any punches, the president reminded Americans of the many lies Obama told to sell Obamacare:

“Obamacare was a big lie.

‘You can keep your doctor.’ Lie!

‘You can keep your plan.’ Lie!

It was a direct lie from the president.

Twenty-eight times he said it — 28 times. It was a lie and he knew it was. And now it is hurting this country irreparably.”

Let’s at least write some letters, and let the Republicans know what we think. Apparently they have very short memories as to why they are where they are.

THIS is a big reason we voted for Mr. Trump.

Among a host of other things, we’re sick of the double standard; the tacit approval for all things 0bama.

You know that he knew he was lying because he tried to avoid the claim that it was a lie by saying that he never said it. Claimed that he only said you can keep it if it’s allowed under Obamacare. But that was obviously false.

ACA architect, MIT economics prof, Jonathan Gruber, argued that perceived rising premium costs are really a one-time increase in 2016 to cover “massively underpriced” policies for the first two years of the 2010 law. Gruber also said the increase “fixed” the problem because insurance companies were seeking signs of profitability and talking optimistically about continued participation in the program.

I guess Obama didn't let Gruber in on the "billion dollar secret." Probably Obama was depending on Gruber's stupidity (smirk).

"Now, I don't want you insurers to worry; when you start
losing money, we are going to jump in and bail you all out."

Obama Siphoned off Billions in GSE Dividends To Prop Up OBAMACARE

ZeroHedge ^ | April 2, 2017 / FR Posted on by Zakeet

Earlier this month, Harvard Ph.D. Jerome Corsi of InfoWars (@jerome_corsi) and a CPA "who worked for two years for a major U.S. accounting firm as an outside auditor for Freddie Mac," confirmed a 2012 scheme hatched by the Obama administration.

The audacious looting involved funnelling hundreds of billions in dividends from Government Sponsored Enterprises (GSE) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to prop up the failing Obamacare program - by paying subsidies to insurers to remain in the system. [Snip]

The conclusion reached by Corsi and others is that this was probably illegal. In fact, House Republicans actually sued the Obama Administration in 2014 over the fact that the subsidies to insurers weren't appropriated by congress and won, which the Obama administration appealed.

Zerohedge and the Atlanta Journal Constitution pointed out last week, the Trump administration has until May 22nd to decide whether or not to pursue the appeal: (Excerpt) Read more at zerohedge.com ...

The Royal Idiot doesn't know much........ but he learned in "the community" that laws don't matter.

The half-caste misfit could care less about US laws: that monies designated for one use cannot be appropriated for another.

O/Care passed by an historic Democrat party-line vote w/ a massive, multi-billion-dollar slush fund that was deliberately kept hidden from us "stupid taxpayers" by self-serving Grubercrats.

=========================================

The Untraceable $8 Billion ObamaCare PR Budget---truly govt fraud at its finest. Egged on by Pelosi, Democrats slavishly voted for Obamacare by an historic straight-party line vote.

Not one Democrat told Americans about Obamacare's Section 4002---which mandates an $8B untraceable fund to "promote" Obamacare (apparently b/c Boobamba had so little confidence in his signature legislation).

THE PAYOFF--WHO GOT THE MONEY? In 2010 Taxpayers are extorted $500 million, in 2011, $750 million, 2012, $1 billion, 2013, $1.25 billion, 2014, $1.5 billion, and, in 2015 and on, $2 billion

<><> Where is all that money going?

<><> Was cashing-in the incentive in getting the thing passed?

The sound of West Wing wire-transfers to state Democratic organizations and to offshore banks is almost palpable.

============================================

Turns out Obamacare is a vehicle for consolidating Dummycrat power.....complete w/ a multi-billion dollar slush fund financed by your tax dollar.

ITEM---A local couple called 10News concerned after they received an envelope from Obamacare website, Covered California. Inside was a letter discussing voter registration and a registration card pre-marked with an "x" in the box next to Democratic Party.

ITEM---Obamacare web site is also a voter registration site.

From the get go....Obama lied about the plan to dupe Americans. Democrats jumped onboard and continued the Obamacare charade.

MEMORY LANE---As far back as 2008, at the presidential debate in Nashville, Democrat candidate Obama advanced his signature plan that was ultimately enacted (by an historic straight Democrat party-line vote) into the "Affordable Care Act:"

QUOTING OBAMA: "No. 1, let me just repeat, if you’ve got a health care plan that you like, you can keep it. All I’m going to do is help you to lower the premiums on it. You’ll still have choice of doctor.”

Repeated over and over by every loyal Democrat---- conning Americans into believing they'd also be saving $2500.00 on healthcare costs.

SEN. JEFF MERKLEY (D-Oreg.): “[E]nsuring that those who like their insurance get to keep it” “The HELP Committee bill sets forward a historic Democrat plan that will, for the first time in American history, give every American access to affordable health coverage, reduce costs, and increase choice, while ensuring that those who like their insurance get to keep it.” (Sen.

Shaheen, “Health Care Questions From Across New Hampshire,” Accessed 11/13/13)

SEN. DEBBIE STABENOW (D-Mich.): “As someone who has a large number of large employers in my state, one of the things I appreciate about the Democrat chairman’s remark is — is the grandfathering provisions, the fact that the people in my state, 60 percent of whom have insurance, are going to be able to keep it. And Mr. Chairman, I appreciate that. That’s a strong commitment. It’s clear in the bill … I appreciate the strong commitment on your part and the president to make sure that if you have your insurance you can keep it. That’s the bottom line for me.” (U.S. Senate, Finance Committee, Bill Mark-Up, 9/24/09)

SEN. JON TESTER (D-Mont.): “‘If you like your coverage, you’ll be able to keep it,’ Tester said, adding that if Medicare changes, it will only become stronger”. (“Tester In Baker To Discuss Health Care,” The Fallon County Times, 11/20/09)

=====================================================

Twenty-nine Democrats who voted for it (including onetime lawmaker Landrieu who pocketed a bundle to vote for it) were ousted in the 2014 midterm Democrat Demolition Derby.

============================================

Obamacare is a stupid failed scam that (according to ACA architect Jonathan Gruber) depended on the stupidity of the American people to get passed.

Odumbo forgets that television remembers everything. I once saw Tip O’Neil tell a whopper on local television. It was one of the things that changed me from the democrat party. As I thought about how he could have told such a bald face lie I began to realize that he lied with such confidence because he had been lying all his life and getting away with it. And I realized that the old pols who taught him all the tricks had been lying and getting away with it all of their lives as well. The democrat party is the original school for scandal.
