President Trump is giving an extended timeline for when his administration could be expected to roll out a new plan to replace the Affordable Care Act (ACA), former President Obama’s landmark healthcare legislation.

In an interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly that aired Sunday, Mr. Trump made the vague assertion that it could take “’til sometime into next year.”

Asked if Americans could expect a replacement plan in 2017, the president said, “yes, in the process and maybe it’ll take till sometime into next year but we’re certainly going to be in the process.”

He added that it’s “very complicated,” but urged Americans to remember that “Obamacare is a disaster.

2. I was under the impression that he was going to repeal it on day 1.

So in other words, he's going to let businesses suffer under the weight of Obamacare for another 2 years. Got it.

3. This presidenting stuff is hard, Donald.

You can't just wave your pen and tweet and be king. Policy is dense and difficult, especially in a nation this large and diverse. A lot harder than selling your name to put on a bunch of crap.

4. Wait until after the midterm before we dump you, right?

We're going to get rid of all of you baggers anyway with your no sympathy for little kids and gun laws.

6. Meaning

They don't know what the fuck they're doing. (but when they do it it's going to be awesome)

7. The longer they take, the worst things get for them.

Average people will figure out how to use the exchange properly and see that Obamacare saves them a lot of money.
