So no, he didn’t do away with it. He promised it would be “so easy” to implement “insurance for everyone”, with no changes to pre-existing condition coverage, no cuts to Medicaid or Medicare and that was less expensive but better overall. He endorsed Republican plans that broke every single one of those promises, and never gave any detailed presentation of his plan. Obamacare is very much still in place, even if the penalty is gone.Grandmaof2 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 9:12 pmwe no longer are forced to have it or get penalized . so he did what would needed go be done.Francee89 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 7:52 pmHe absolutely didn’t do away with Obamacare.

I personally think he has done a good job. the job market has improved, , unemployment rate has went down and he did away with Obamacare just to name a few. no he isn't prefect but nobody is.

Are you on Medicare? If not have your rates gone down over the last four years? Because obamacare is still thriving. And we have a record breaking deficit even before this $2 trillion dollar package. If he done a good job we would have went into this crisis with a surplus. There was no excuse for that large deficit with a ten year bull stock market.Grandmaof2 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 7:44 pmI personally think he has done a good job. the job market has improved, , unemployment rate has went down and he did away with Obamacare just to name a few. no he isn't prefect but nobody is.Thelma Harper wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 6:47 pmI'm a grandmother of 3, soon to be 4. I'm not stupid enough to vote for him again. Find another Republican, a moderate one with some sense this time.
This is a great example of the Trump base. Misinformation allows them to believe he’s doing a great job.

He didn't create this virus. and he didnt spread it. he is doing all he could to help stop the spread. it is the idiots outside who is making it worseThelma Harper wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 8:27 pm
And then the idiot tanked it all because he's so concerned with his ego and playing this virus down like it couldn't touch America on the scale it has.
He didn't spread it himself. Where did I say he did?
What has he done since January 31, 2020 when he installed a limited "ban" on travel from China?
The only idiots still believing the tripe that comes out of his mouth are people like you.

I keep my updates limited to what is going on in my state. Plus seeing the president looking as scared about this as the rest of us doesn’t help, so I don’t watch.Lemons wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 2:58 pmI didn’t even know they had number ones on Facebook until Trump told us. It’s coverage 24/7 so it’s not a good idea to watch too much. Just a daily update is enough for now.AngelicUnicorn wrote: ↑Thu Apr 02, 2020 2:51 pm I thought I was number 1 on facebook......
Not that this thought has ever entered my mind, especially now.
I’m glad I stopped watching national news during this crisis. My anxiety levels have dramatically dropped.
Progress, not perfection.

We are no longer forced to have health insurance. Trump sure is making America great again with accomplishments like that, isn't he?

I didn't know that news conferences in the Rose Garden was part of Neilson's rating list of shows.
