Welker Presses Trump on Vague Healthcare “Concepts”
In a “Meet the Press” interview, Donald Trump reiterated his vague “concepts of a plan” for healthcare, avoiding specifics on a fully developed replacement for the Affordable Care Act. While claiming to want “better health care for less money,” he admitted uncertainty about whether the public would ever see a concrete proposal. He asserted that preexisting conditions would remain covered under his vision and controversially credited himself with “saving” Obamacare despite prior attempts to repeal it. Trump also deflected questions about the repeal effort’s feasibility by criticizing Senator John McCain’s vote against repealing the ACA’s individual mandate.
