There will never be any plan

Oh come on, are we really going to pretend that the President has an actual plan or ever will come up for one for health bill to replace the ACA? There’s no point in looking for “clues” in the President’s semi-coherent ramblings. Trump does not make legislative proposals. He never has, and even when he pushed for *his* tax bill, it wasn’t really a bill that Trump has any part conceiving of he legislative details or writing. He just said he wanted a tax cut bill and Republicans in Congress wrote what they wanted and called it Trump’s plan.

There is no point pretending that we have a normal president who has any particular legislation on mind when he calls for a new legislative plan. We all know that’s not how Trump thinks. Stop pretending he is acting like a competent leader despite the mountain of evidence that he isn’t.
