"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.

(837 posts)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 ..."

(16,858 posts)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.

(24,461 posts)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).

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

(38,421 posts)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
