Despite touting the GOP as 'the party of health care,' the White House press secretary is the latest Trump administration official unable to outline an alternative to the Affordable Care Act.
White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders became the latest Trump administration official unable to outline any semblance of an Affordable Care Act alternative despite touting the GOP as"the party of health care" heading into 2020.
“Certainly the president wants to be the 'party of health care,' it's one he wants to see us address, he'd love to be able to address it now but we know that Democrats are controlled by the far, radical left-wing part of their party, and they are at total contrast to what we need and what the president wants to see happen when it comes to health care," Sanders said.
“The debate about preexisting conditions is over,” declared acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney on ABC's This Week. “Both parties support them, and anyone telling you anything different is lying to you for political gain.” Smith pressed Sanders on how Trump plans to make health care a"winning issue for his party in 2020" if Republicans are unable to offer more than just criticisms of Obamacare.
"The election doesn't have to be a referendum on Obamacare," added Sanders, saying Trump only wants a"discussion" about what works.
