President Donald Trump on Thursday night tweeted his support for Senate Republicans’ bill to repeal and replace Obamacare.

“I am very supportive,” Trump tweeted. “Look forward to making it really special! Remember, ObamaCare is dead.”

Earlier Thursday Trump told reporters that health care was “percolating” and said the bill was “going to be very good” with “a little negotiation.”

Though Trump in 2015 pledged not to cut Medicaid, Medicare and Social Security, the newly released legislation would impose deeper long-term cuts to Medicaid than the House’s version of the proposal.

  1. And the band played on…

  2. I am very supportive of the Senate #HealthcareBill. Look forward to making it really special! Remember, ObamaCare is dead.

    Many of your constituents will be dead as well. You are not officially a terrorist. Looking forward to seeing you waterboarded.

  3. He is clueless as to what is in the bill and probably does not care. He makes my puke glands wobble.

  4. “I’m looking forward to making people’s deaths and medical bankruptcies really special!” Why don’t you tweet that, Orange mofo. All trump cares about is taking something away from Barack Obama. That’s it. Stick it to the black guy who’s smarter, harder working, and more popular than you. I don’t think his motivations are much more than that. Asshat.

  5. And he hobbled Sanders (n Spicer n Conway) again.
