From the article:

Trump is also a supporter of universal health care, if not Obamacare.

“I am going to take care of everybody,” Trump said on “60 Minutes” in September. “I don’t care if it costs me votes or not. Everybody’s going to be taken care of much better than they’re taken care of now.”

Trump even praised the single payer health care programs of Canada and Scotland during the first Republican presidential debate in August.

“As far as single payer, it works in Canada, it works incredibly well in Scotland, it could have worked in a different age, which is the age you are talking about here,” Trump said when asked by the moderators about his past support for single payer health care.

Of course Trump would have had to made the strategic decision to position himself to run in 2016 as a Democrat way back in 2010, before he went on his birther kick. You probably can’t win a Democratic primary as one of the leading birthers in the country.

Ok, without checking the links and quotes, it’s not so great for Trump on healthcare. Not the worst — the worst is Obamacare, and he’s definitely opposed to a continuation of that.

I already saw he’s not so great on eminent domain, earlier this year.

That’s two positions of literally hundreds. I can take a few misses, to get a on-the-balance Populist. Like I said, it’s a dice throw, but right now, a dice throw is all we got.

That, or armed revolution. And I like air conditioning and hate bugs.

"I am going to take care of everybody," Trump said on "60 Minutes" in September.

We Conservatives recoil from this statement; but he just rounded up a LOT of loose Dem/Lib voters!

Is that a problem??
