Just like most of Trump's campaign promises, it's all a big, steaming load of grade A bullshit.

He originally made that statement in the Chris Wallace interview on July 17. Said he'd be signing a "full and complete health care plan" in two weeks. Did anyone actually believe he would?

They were on recess half the last 6 weeks, and had no such bill in negotiations when PINO said it.

... that the Republicans are afraid to expose it, for fear that all the denizens of "Democrat Underground" will flock to Republican sites and embarrass them with our large donations.

That ‘two week’ promise was in “Trump Years”.

Since he takes EVERYTHING all the way to SCOTUS, I imagine 2 weeks actually meant 2nd term.

Not on our watch!
