"If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!" Trump tweeted.

How could Trump legally cancel the Obama rule that conferred this subsidy on Congress?

The Obamacare subsidy issue is now in “appeal” before a court. If Trump goes forward with the appeal, Obamacare subsidies to congress and the insurance companies will continue ... but he has the power to CANCEL the appeal. And if the appeal is cancelled, the subsidies to congress and insurance companies are summarily cancelled. This remedy is totally legal and amazingly simple. Remember Obama built this “house” with straw, not the bricks and mortar of legislation.

Because it's a rule, and not a law?
