President Trump on Wednesday praised Senate Republicans’ healthcare plan and said it will only improve.
He also blasted ObamaCare, tweeting that the healthcare legislation is dying.
“The Republicans never discuss how good their healthcare bill is, & it will get even better at lunchtime, ” Trump tweeted Wednesday.
“The Dems scream death as OCare dies!”
Trump confirmed last month that he referred to the Senate GOP’s healthcare bill as “mean” and suggested it lacks “heart.”
The lunch is expected to cover healthcare and other agenda items.
The Senate Republicans’ healthcare bill foundered earlier this week after multiple GOP senators came out against the proposal.
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell Mitch McConnell Scarborough: ‘The president didn’t really try to sell healthcare’ Herman Cain: Going against tax reform would be ‘stupid’ Arkansas governor: We have to ‘engage’ in healthcare reform, not ‘wash our hands’ of it MORE (R-Ky.) said Tuesday that Republicans would look to move forward with their plan to repeal ObamaCare, even as the repeal-only plan has already faced opposition by some members of his conference.
In an earlier tweet Wednesday, Trump said Republican senators “MUST keep their promise to America” regarding healthcare.
He previously blamed the collapse of the GOP healthcare plan on “Democrats and a few Republicans” and vowed to “return.”
Trump has also floated the idea of allowing ObamaCare to collapse on its own.
