A warning not to get rickrolled all over again as the troll starts up with health care diversion again:

President has been all over the map on health care. He has said he wants universal coverage. He calls Medicare-for-all socialism. He’s fought to nix ACA. Says he’s for preexisting condition protections but has pushed to weaken them. He goes back and forth on drug reimportation.

In the @ABCNews interview, Trump says he’ll roll out a health care plan “in about two months.” Then says “in a month.” He says it’ll be “much before the election.”

“Soon. Fairly soon.”

just noticed this followup on the whole thing:

Even Senator Collins pointed out the legality of carving out “illegal” parts of a law and preserving the rest like preexisting conditions and dependent coverage till 26.

There’s 0 legal rationale for the Justice Department failing to enforce ACA.

Just a punitive desire by Trump https://t.co/fQqouGE8e8

Sure, because after 11-12 years of trying to derail Democratic health care, they're going to come up with their own plan in 2 weeks hunkered over a lab bench wearing goggles, lab coats and the stench of sulfur. Oh, and Trump's a genius. [spoiler: the resulting plan will be 1 page with lots of pictures]

Andy Slavitt (former head of Medicare, Medicaid & ACA for Obama and now activist on health care) did a 12-point twitter thread yesterday on what he suspects was going on with this whole thing:

BREAKING: We know Trump wants to eliminate the ACA and is suing to do so.

What I didn’t know until 24 hours ago was why? Why would a man light the match on health care, where he lost the Congress and which will bring down his presidency?

Mitch tells reporters what GOP plans actually are and what he said to Trump:

McConnell to Trump: We're not repealing and replacing ObamaCare

By Alexander Bolton @ TheHill.com, April 2

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) told President Trump in a conversation Monday that the Senate will not be moving comprehensive health care legislation before the 2020 election, despite the president asking Senate Republicans to do that in a meeting last week.

McConnell said he made clear to the president that Senate Republicans will work on bills to keep down the cost of health care, but that they will not work on a comprehensive package to replace the Affordable Care Act, which the Trump administration is trying to strike down in court.

“We had a good conversation yesterday afternoon and I pointed out to him the Senate Republicans’ view on dealing with comprehensive health care reform with a Democratic House of Representatives,” McConnell told reporters Tuesday, describing his conversation with Trump.

“I was fine with Sen. Alexander and Sen. Grassley working on prescription drug pricing and other issues that are not a comprehensive effort to revisit the issue that we had the opportunity to address in the last Congress and were unable to do so,” he said, referring to Senate Health Committee Chairman Lamar Alexander(R-Tenn.) and Finance Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) and the failed GOP effort in 2017 to repeal and replace ObamaCare.

“I made clear to him that we were not going to be doing that in the Senate,” McConnell said he told the president. “He did say, as he later tweeted, that he accepted that and he would be developing a plan that he would take to the American people during the 2020 campaign.” [....]

Don't the Republicans know you're supposed to bring out the "wunderwaffe" to ensure total annihilation of the enemy before the...battle...not after..? Unless, of course, lies are all you've got (again) to go with.

I never believed it for a second. If there was this miraculous health care plan democrats would have found it. Someone would have at least proposed it and I would have heard of it. Obamacare is the best health care plan the Heritage Institute could come up with. Democrats already passed it for them. Any of the ideas to make health care cheaper are against republican principles, for example negotiating drug prices.
