Health insurers plan higher premiums due to Trump administration's erratic management

Pitiful. Is this really surprising though? These people who are losing their insurance or seeing their premiums skyrocket will be reminded time and time again how Trump and his party have treated them. Looking forward to the midterms next year.

WASHINGTON — Health insurers across the country are making plans to significantly raise premiums or leave Affordable Care Act marketplaces as exasperation grows with the Trump administration's erratic management of the program.
Meanwhile, state insurance regulators — Democratic and Republican — have increasingly concluded they cannot count on the Trump administration to help them ensure that consumers will have access to health insurance next year.
The growing frustration with the Trump administration's management — reflected in letters to state regulators and in interviews with more than two dozen industry and government officials nationwide — undercuts a key White House claim that insurance marketplaces are collapsing on their own.
Instead, according to many officials, it is the Trump administration that is driving much of the current instability by refusing to commit to steps to keep markets running, such as funding aid for low-income consumers or enforcing penalties for people who go without insurance.
"All this uncertainty is not helpful," said Blue Shield of California CEO Paul Markovich.
Markovich was one of the few senior insurance officials who agreed to speak on the record, as many fear retribution from the White House or its allies.

These are the same insurers who in your mind, if not for govt intervention, are looking to kill as many people as possible by denying coverage..right?

Your party's brand name is dropping like a rock. Lowest contributions at level not seen in a decade.
Obamacare was already unaffordable and going under before a trump.
