At half-term point, 45's healthcare plan is: Bankrupt hospitals, go to the gutter and die.

After promising to do everything right that Obama did "wrong" , and owning all 3 branches of government, he has no plan other than giving the rich and big business huge tax breaks, and letting hospitals close in rural communities.

An ad-hoc emergency room non-healthcare plan will bankrupt hospitals, meaning those at a distance from rural hospitals are far more likely to die on the way there. The surviving hospitals are also far more likely to make mistakes in care as patients pile up in overcrowded emergency rooms.

There's nothing pro-life about the gop. Nothing at all.

1. That has always been

The plan.

2. His ignorant base will suffer

from having their hospitals close.

But, then again, they are culture voters. They don't care about health care. Just so that wall gets built, that's all that matters.

3. He will bankrupt individuals and let big corporations do it

It is the GOP way.

4. I've come up with a solution and I'm sure President Obama would go along with it for the sake

of the people. Democrats put up the original Obamacare bill with the public option added, rename it "Trumpcare" and promise a mammoth signing ceremony and . . . BOOM . . . the job is done. (Of course we'll revert to the original name when the orange turd in the punch bowl is gone.)

5. Closure of a rural county's hospital puts the local economy in a downward spiral

Per capita income decreases 4%, unemployment increases 1.6%, and people want to leave
