    2017: “We have come up with a solution that’s really, really I think very good,”
    “Now , I have to tell you, it’s an unbelievably complex subject,” he added. “Nobody knew health care could be so complicated.”
    “We have a plan that I think is going to be fantastic. It’s going to be released fairly soon,” Trump said Monday. “I think it’s going to be something special … I think you’re going to like what you hear.”

    But he told the CEOs that if the plan doesn’t accomplish his goals, they’d face his ire.

    “If things don’t work out I’m blaming you anyway,” he said.

      Regarding the 2017 comment: I was at work and read that quote “nobody knew healthcare could be so complicated” and I laughed hard for a while. Then sighed. Then I had to go for a walk. Deep down I had really doubted someone could get that far in life and be as dumb as he appeared to be. That statement shredded that thought. He wasn’t acting. He was really that dumb, and the next three years were going to be rough.

        And the next three years were, perhaps, rougher than you could have imagined.

      hey lets not forget that obamacare is the republican think tank plan but tweaked with things they don’t like. profit caps, no lifetime caps, requirements to provide care, etc, etc.
