Opinion | Donald Trump Still Wants to Kill Obamacare. Why?
www.nytimes.com
Is this really about policy, or is it personal?

Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.

So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?

    Conservatives have been poisoning the well on healthcare longer than you’ve been alive.

    Frame Canada: Wendell Potter spent decades scaring Americans. About Canada. He worked for the health insurance industry, and he knew that if Americans understood Canadian-style health care, they might… like it. So he helped deploy an industry playbook for protecting the health insurance agency. https://www.npr.org/2020/10/19/925354134/frame-canada

      ‘Frame Canada’ made me think you were going to be quoting the ‘South Park’ movie. The actual truth is much stupider.
