have healthcare

quote:

Barack Obama says he told Donald Trump there was a simple way he could take credit for the former president’s landmark health care legislation upon entering the White House: stamp his own name on it.


quote:

“The idea that I somehow took on health care just because I thought it was fun or it would somehow burnish my legacy is nuts,” he continued. ”Because we knew going in in 2008 that every president since Teddy Roosevelt had failed to do what every other advanced democracy in the world has done.”


quote:

If you are one of these folks who is watching cable news at your cocktail parties with your friends and you are saying 'civilization is collapsing' and you are nervous and worried, but that is not where you are putting all your time, energy and money, then either you don't actually think civilization is collapsing ... or you are not pushing yourself hard enough and I would push harder.”


Now where have seen this?

Look at the comments below the linked column. One of them is:

"There's nothing affordable about the Affordable Care Act."

This needs to be repeated anywhere there's a discussion about Obamacare. There is no argument against this.

Politards: "Trump is gonna wipe his arse with Obama's only legacy."

*Repeal fails*

Obama: "I'll make it easy for you. Just change the name. I don't give a fuuuuu."

Politards: "Obama is a traitor and he wasn't born in America."

Healthcare where the deductible is $12,000? That's healthcare in name only. The ACA still is shite.

He basically did. Getting rid of the individual mandate pulled the teeth from Obama's legacy. It would've been even better had "we don't say his name" not changed his vote at the last second.

Yea, Obama is clearly saying this for the good of the country. No ulterior motive whatsoever

Did it? Without the mandate, it's kind of toothless.

You're missing my point. My point is that you guys were circle jerking over destroying Obama's legacy when he didn't even care about it to begin with.

With Obama being as self-absorbed as he is, he would never say this.

Why would anyone in their right mind want to stamp their name to that massive pile of legislative garbage?

With the skyrocketing deductibles Obamacare caused, less people got healthcare.
