For many, Donald Trump is an acquired taste as a candidate for president, and his out-sized ego and blustering promises make it difficult to know if he is really serious and can actually deliver. In the past he hinted that he favored nationalized health care, and that should make anyone nervous who is suffering through the disaster that is Obamacare. More recently, however, Trump has changed his tune.
Democrats always say that if Republicans have a better plan they should present it for examination. Trump has done just that, and the plan seems pretty good on initial perusal. What it is not is a giveaway to the insurance companies, nor a costly bureaucratic takeover of the privates sector. It also respects the right of citizens to decide whether to participate or not.
Trump says that the repeal of Obamacare will begin on day one of a Trump administration, so he seems to recognize the urgency of the fixing the health care system, even as Obamacare heads towards possible collapse of its own weight and design. More than half of the Obamacare exchanges have called it quits, though the administration continues touting the success of the system. The Trump plan also recognizes the tremendous cost of providing health care to millions of illegal aliens, and so many of the savings will come from purging that element from the system. Whether that is possible remains to be seen.
See Trump 7 point plan on page 2:
It’s time for Republicans to unite NOT divide
Never thought that the Republicans could sink that low, but this cycle we have seen about everything. Trump supporters have been called Trailer trash (Rubio) and every derogatory word they can think off, it will get worse.
Republicans don’t want the WH, or the senate, those in the senate just want to keep their cushy jobs, continue their insider trading, screw the working American.
These are the states that are crucial for Trump to be nominated,
March 8, Hawaii, Idaho, Michigan, Mississippi
March 15, Florida, Illinois, Missouri, N Carolina, Ohio
March 22, Utah
April 5, Wisconsin
April 19, New York
April 26, Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island
May 3, Indiana
May 10, Nebraska, West Virginia
May 17, Oregon
May 24, Washington
June 7, California, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, South Dakota
Remember the establishment is throwing everything at Trump, hopping something will stick. Every vote is needed
Gee, I was led to believe only someone from the political class, that’s republicans-democrats-social democrats and whatever could come up with a health plan that didn’t screw the American people??? WTF’s going on here when an outsider comes up with a fair and viable plan?
no more fines for not having insurance that is communism !

Trump’s Best Friend From School Just Wrote Something You MUST Read
March 6, 2016
Peter David Ticktin is a very successful lawyer. He owns his own law firm, Ticktin Law, and he goes all the way back to military school with Donald Trump.
As Mr. Ticktin, Esq., points out in the beginning of his letter, he’s made it a practice of staying out of politics for business purposes, as most successful business people do, but he felt he had to speak out after seeing ‘Little Marco’ and “Lying Ted” try to crucify Trump at the last Republican Presidential debate.
As a law firm, we at The Ticktin Law Group do not like to get involved in politics. As soon as we endorse one side, we risk alienating everyone on the other side. Also, our lawyers and staff are, themselves, on both sides. Politics is not our game. However, Justice is!
If you saw a guy get publicly smeared, and you knew him well from the days you were friends and seniors together in high school, if you knew him to be a decent and honest man, would you want to say something? This is why I need to share what I know.
I was aghast at watching last night’s debate. It was a set-up. The moderators, Cruz, and Rubio were all like little alligators trying to take a bite out of Trump. Yes, Donald Trump has had some failures, but he has been exceedingly successful. None of this came out. Instead, there was a general attack. Rubio simply makes up lies. He pretends that Trump has small hands and makes fun of him for something which isn’t even real. He pretends that Donald wets his pants, and makes fun of him, as though it was true, and then he calls Donald Trump a “Bully.”
I am not suggesting that you should vote or not vote for anyone. I just need to defend a former friend who is being smeared.
Like Donald Trump, I attended New York Military Academy (“NYMA”) for high school. In fact, in our senior year, together, Donald was my captain, and I was his 1st Platoon Sergeant. I sometimes joke that I ran his first company for him, Company “A.”
People don’t really change much from the ages of 17 and 18, and I know this guy. I know him to be a good decent guy. We lived and breathed an Honor Code in those years. It wasn’t just a rule. It was our way of life. Neither Donald, nor any other cadet who graduated with us would ever lie, cheat, or steal from a fellow cadet. These values became irreversibly intertwined in the fabric of our personalities, of who we are.
Of the 99 guys (no girls in those days) in our class, there is not one who I know who has a bad word to say about Donald Trump. Think of it. With all the jealousies which arise in high school and thereafter, with all the potential envy, not one of us has anything other than positive memories of this man. How could we? He was an “A” student, a top athlete, and as a leader, he was highly respected. We never feared him, yet we never wanted to disappoint him. He had our respect. He was never a bigot in any way, shape or form. He only hates those who hate. Of course he denounces the KKK.
As to the discussion with the New York Times, it is his choice to release the ‘off the record’ remarks. However, if he does, it opens the door for all political opposition to make that demand for everyone, and that means that our press will never get those ‘off the record’ remarks which help them to understand the realities of the campaign. Moreover, the idea that Donald Trump confessed some alternate theory of his position is preposterous. Can anyone believe that all those NY Times reporters are walking around knowing some deep dark nasty secret about a guy who is seeking an endorsement?
The Republican establishment is afraid of Donald Trump. Why? They are afraid that he will lose to Hillary. They don’t hate Donald. They hate her. They are so fearful that they fail to see that by expanding the base of voters for Trump, he is more likely to win.
Watching the chorus of whiners, decriers, denigrators, and self-righteous put-down experts from so many directions, from Mit Romney, to Megyn Kelly, Little Mario, it has to make you wonder. Why? Why are so many people so angry with Donald Trump, that they are lying, name calling, ridiculing, and demeaning him as they do. Either they are afraid, or they know him to be evil.
This is why I feel the need to speak out at this time. I know this man. He is a lot of things, but he is not evil. He is a decent honest guy who loves this country, and who is willing to sacrifice so much of what is left of his life, because he knows that this country needs to be fixed, and that it is going to require someone who can do the job. He just doesn’t see anything around him other than political hacks, so he is willing to take this huge responsibility.
I’m not saying that he is the only one who can do the job. My point is simply as to his motivation and his goodness.
This next decade is going to be one of major changes. We all see the climate changing, and the world food supply is getting lower. Our fish stock around the world is running low. Oil prices will cause countries to fail. The Middle East is beyond repair, and we have become weak and ineffective around the world. Donald Trump sees the issues and knows that he can assemble leaders who would have the best chance of fixing things. This is why he is running. He does not need it for his own aggrandizement. He doesn’t need another big jet or to take up residence in the White House. He just wants things to be fixed, and he knows that the politicians won’t fix anything.
I knew Donald Trump and was close to him in our senior year in high school. I just want you to know that there is nothing to fear from him. His character is as good as it gets. He is a patriot, taking on a heroic task, and being thanked by massive abuse.
If you want to see a true reflection of a man, look at his children. Need I say more?

Did you even read page 2, it is not like Obumb care
I like this plan
Also calls for transparency in costs from health providers concerning costs for tests and treatment so that we the consumer can shop our care like we already do for most everything else.
Let us not forget it was still forced down the American people’s throats with close to 50% of elected representatives who listened to their constituents voted against it unanimously in both houses.
And it’s a great plan!!!
