It’s happening: Health care costs soar in Pennsylvania after Trump cuts Obamacare payments
Trump very proudly took credit for the state of the health care system and declared Obamacare no more. Immediately afterward, Pennsylvania announced premiums will jump by 30.6 percent.
By Matthew Chapman OCTOBER 16, 2017

Donald Trump refused to let the GOP’s failures to repeal Obamacare stand in his way.

This month, he struck back by signing executive orders ending the birth control mandate, pushing people to buy “association” and “short-term” plans without consumer protections, and — most crucially — terminating cost sharing reduction subsidies to insurers.

On Monday, Trump boasted in bizarre fashion to reporters that, through executive fiat, he had gotten rid of the health law once and for all.

“Obamacare is finished. It’s dead. It’s gone,” he rambled. “You shouldn’t even mention it. It’s gone. There is no such thing as Obamacare any more.”

Trump should be careful what he wishes for, because just hours after his proclamation, the first effects of his sabotage became clear in Pennsylvania.

1. I hope they remember it when they go to the polls.

American voters are known for having short memories and not learning from their past experiences. Besides, many voted for him due to his "personality" and not issues or policies. They wanted someone to "shake things up" and they got it.
