"President Donald Trump dropped a new plan to terminate Obamacare in a Saturday morning Truth Social rant in which he appeared to support a form of the subsidies that are at the heart of the government shutdown. Trump has spent several days trying to deny that there is any problem with affordability after he and his party took a shellacking on Election Day, and as his administration fights an order to pay SNAP benefits to 42 million Americans during the shutdown. And air travelers have begun to experience delays due to a shutdown-related reduction in flights."
"I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN PURCHASE THEIR OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE, and have money left over. In other words, take from the BIG, BAD Insurance Companies, give it to the people, and terminate, per Dollar spent, the worst Healthcare anywhere in the World, ObamaCare."
Trump proposed redirecting premium subsidies from insurance companies directly to individuals so people could purchase their own private healthcare and potentially have money left over. Trump urged Senate Republicans to terminate the filibuster as a way to end the government shutdown. The proposed plan presented no clear mechanism for purchasing care outside traditional insurance companies. The administration is contesting an order to pay SNAP benefits to 42 million Americans during the shutdown. Trump overstated the subsidy total, which is estimated at about $138 billion for 2025. Flight reductions have caused traveler delays amid the shutdown.
