Dumb-Ass-in-Chief: Trump: 'Nobody knew health care could be so complicated'

[spanone]

Washington (CNN)President Donald Trump noted with some exasperation Monday the complexity of the nation's health laws, which he's vowed to reform as part of a bid to scrap Obamacare.

"We have come up with a solution that's really, really I think very good," Trump said at a meeting of the nation's governors at the White House.

"Now, I have to tell you, it's an unbelievably complex subject," he added. "Nobody knew health care could be so complicated."

Trump was speaking as Republicans on Capitol Hill continue to work toward developing a plan to replace the Affordable Care Act, the Obama-era law which they argue is too costly and complicated. Trump has not yet gotten behind a GOP replacement measure, however, and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker Paul Ryan were hoping to convince Trump to support it during a meeting later Monday.

[world wide wally]

1. Nobody knew Trump was this stupid

[Ilsa]

15. Based on his simple language, I think

A few people considered he was unable to ponder problems for more than a few minutes. He thinks all problems have a binary choice. "I want to win so someone else must lose."

[Charles Bukowski]

24. Anyone who paid attention to his birther rants

knew what an enormous dimwit he is.

[MineralMan]

2. No, you idiot. You didn't know. Lots of others do know

how complicated it is. But you? You're going to do something simple that doesn't work. Great Job, Trumpy! Great Job...

[RKP5637]

7. He's like a slow running PC plus lots disk and memory errors! Reboot ain't gonna help it! n/t

[w0nderer]

25. kickety n/t

[The Wielding Truth]

3. If by no one, he means him. Then yea. All other humans already realized that there are many many

variables to medicine, it's cost and the twisted course of for - profit Health care.

[Paladin]

4. Hillary Clinton knew, decades ago. (nt)

[RKP5637]

5. Trump, the largest fossilized moron still walking the planet earth! n/t

[guillaumeb]

6. But "Repeal and replace" fit really well on the bumper sticker. eom

[Ilsa]

20. Repeal and replace is going to look good on my vehicle

Next year. R&R trump, Rs in Congress, etc.

[guillaumeb]

21. I like it.

And you have given me an idea for a sign to carry.

[Johonny]

8. repeal and replace Trump, please

[BainsBane]

11. Yes!

[raging moderate]

9. Rec'd for what it tells us.

And for the great replies. Thank you, all.

[PsychoBabble]

10. But to be FAIR, he meant "Nobody knew ..."

But to be FAIR, he meant "Nobody knew that it was so complicated" in the same way he says:

"Nobody is less racist than me."

"Nobody loves the military more than me."

"Believe me."

In other words ... I am making this up because it is emotionally satisfying to walking Amygdalas with no brains ...

"Nobody REALLY looks at the details of what I say, anyway ..."

[Docreed2003]

12. This guy is an embarrassing dolt....

EVERYONE knew how complex healthcare was/is in this country. Everyone except this moron, apparently, who can't be bothered to actually read and understand anything that doesn't fit into a one page, ten bullet point presentation! Congrats you moronic GOP stooges. You wanted someone with no political experiece, who wasn't an intellectual...now you've got it. To paraphrase Dylan, it's a wonder this idiot still knows how to breath.

[HughBeaumont]

13. You know what's REALLY fucking dumb about all this?

The GOP could simultaneously revive their corrupt & stench-ridden brand and cement their legacy forever by simply creating at the very least a multi-payer system with a public option. In other words, doing the right thing for America and it's citizens.

But see, they won't DO that . . . because that would mean two things.

One, admitting error (a cardinal sin in modern Conservatopia).

Two, placing humanity over profit (Cardinal Sin Numero DOS in Conservatopia).

[alarimer]

14. Said someone who's never had to read an Explanation of Benefits

Which explain nothing and only add to the confusion, in my opinion.

[Coventina]

19. Oh geez, don't even get me started on "Explanation of Benefits"

Truth in advertising laws should have ended those a long time ago...

[Stuart G]

16. Trump has said a lot of dump/stupid things...now...I won't say this is the "dumbest"

cause that is hard to imagine which is the "est"...but....anyone who has watched the health care/ medicare/ Obamacare issue over time, knows this exceptionally complicated and..also, very difficult.

Saying something like this, only shows how amazingly uninformed and also ignorant Trump really is.

[TDale313]

26. If not the dumbest thing, it's way up there. n/t

[spanone]

17. well don, you were going to repeal & replace it on the same day....are you saying you had no clue???

you didn't give it any thought?

you just said that shit without thinking about it?

maybe that's why you didn't know.....DUMB ASS.


P.S. don, you can bet your stupid ass that President Obama knew how complicated it was.....

[lunatica]

18. It's hard to read that stuff when they take out all the big words

[UTUSN]

22. Plus, nobody knew until he found out that nukes going off would be "very very bad"

[Rex]

23. HELLO! OBAMA KNEW!

Trump is a Dumb Fuck First Tier.

[spanone]

27. duh....a person who wanted to repeal & replace would have studied it....not don

[Stuart G]

28. Hell, he did not have to study it. He could have..

looked at 2 to3 page report on the difficulty and complicated events leading up to the creation of Obamacare. or.........are you ready??? for a difficult to understand idea????...and this is very very very hard to comprehend... sit back and enjoy this one........................................................................

Stupid, ignorant, selfish, and dumb Dumpf..could have invited Mr. Obama..to come and sit with him for a talk on hard it was to enact the ACA. All Dumpf would have had to do was listen to the previous President of the United States...........and ask him how complicated it was and what kind of ideas were needed to deal with the problem of creating such a program......all aspects...................I think Mr. Obama would have been honest with the idiot and explained in simple terms how complicated the program is how hard it was to get set up an environment to get it passed...Mr. Obama would have tried to talk him out of changing it, but Mr Obama was a teacher once, and perhaps he could have made the story a little simple, so the dolt would understand that it would be very difficult to change the program...leave it alone......!!!!!!!!

He wouldn't have to read anything, all he would have to do is honestly listen..

that would be difficult for Dumpf...........but it would school him on the stupid question he raised..

thank you
