Donald Trump tried to sidestep giving a policy position on health care, and walked straight off of a rhetorical cliff.

During the presidential debate Tuesday night, Trump struggled to answer a question about his healthcare plan, accidentally revealing that he didn’t have one at all.

After his particularly lackluster response criticizing Obamacare but giving no alternatives, ABC moderate Linsey Davis asked Trump outright if he knew what he was talking about. “Yes or no, you still do not have a plan?” she said.

I have concepts of a plan,” Trump replied. “I’m not president right now.”

    MF was pres for 4 years and we’re still joking about “infrastructure week”.

    Moreover the entire republican party has been screeching “repeal and replace” and not once put up a plan or alternative to ACA.

    They are all mentally bankrupt.

      *Morally bankrupt

      These aren’t the actions of idiots, they’re the actions of a group playing a bunch of idiots. Might seem like a distinction without a difference, but it’s there.

        Exactly.

        This is all going according to some plan.

        Capitalism seeks to optimize the use of resources.

        Things are not optimized for you, they are optimized for the people that made the plan.
