Trump renews vow on pre-existing conditions after urging court to overturn ObamaCare

Trump on Saturday reiterated a vow to protect those with pre-existing conditions after his administration asked the Supreme Court this week to strike down ObamaCare, Republicans' latest move to dismantle the health care law.

"Now that the very expensive, unpopular and unfair Individual Mandate provision has been terminated by us, many States & the U.S. are asking the Supreme Court that Obamacare itself be terminated so that it can be replaced with a FAR BETTER AND MUCH LESS EXPENSIVE ALTERNATIVE," Trump tweeted Saturday morning.

"Obamacare is a joke! Deductible is far too high and the overall cost is ridiculous. My Administration has gone out of its way to manage OC much better than previous, but it is still no good. I will ALWAYS PROTECT PEOPLE WITH PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS,ALWAYS!!!"

Trump has long railed against the namesake law enacted by former President Obama. His latest tweet comes as the administration faces criticism for its effort this week to have the Affordable Care Act (ACA) squashed amid the coronavirus pandemic.

And they want POC to not have healthcare and die.

It is that simple.

BTW, he cant fix preexisting if ACA goes away without a long legal process, and he wouldnt try of course and in the meantime health insurance companies would call COVID a preexisting condition for most people.


Reminds me of the garbage that puked out of the mouth of John Wayne in 1971 saying Black people should not be in charge of anything because of how incompetent and dumb and irresponsible they were, this coming from one of the dumbest people in the history of Hollywood.

Didn't Trump repeal and replace Obama Care on his first day in office? I know I remember that that was what he promised.
