Donald Trump tried to sidestep giving a policy position on health care, and walked straight off of a rhetorical cliff.
During the presidential debate Tuesday night, Trump struggled to answer a question about his healthcare plan, accidentally revealing that he didn’t have one at all.
After his particularly lackluster response criticizing Obamacare but giving no alternatives, ABC moderate Linsey Davis asked Trump outright if he knew what he was talking about. “Yes or no, you still do not have a plan?” she said.
“I have concepts of a plan,” Trump replied. “I’m not president right now.”
T: “She has no plan!”
Mod: “Do you have a plan?”
T: “Oh, well I’m not president yet so of course not yet!”
Imagine thinking that’s a great way to convince people you’re the right person for the job…
“I haven’t looked into any potential solutions, but vote for me and I promise I’ll try to find time to think about it!”
If you were perpetually “two weeks away” from releasing your “beautiful” healthcare plan 6 years ago then wtf are you doing now with nothing?
Worse, imagine how stupid you’d have to be to actually be convinced that he’s the right person for the job. And then despair, because half the voters are that fucking stupid.
everytime he’s out golfing he’s conceptualizing a plan.
