Says the person hurling petty insult.

No, I'm legitimately impressed by his speech. This is a totally different Trump. This Trump has potential. Its Twitter Troll Trump that I can't stand.

It was a speech about hope and promise. A total 180 from his previous speeches about "American carnage" and painting the darkest picture of America possible. That America he had been talking about is not the America I see. The America he talked about last night...much more in line with my views.

Now I'm waiting for specifics on all these great things he wants to do.

It is not a different Trump. It is the same Trump since day one, you just didn't have the insight to comprehend the message. That is your own fault. You probably listen to the media too much. Start thinking for yourself.

He did not talk about any specific policies to achieve any of the Miracles he promised to his supporters. He doesn't have any plans or policies.

If there is no plan and he won't accomplish anything, why are left wing extremists like yourself so scared? :eek:

You know he is a great President and you can't handle it. Your liberal dream is over. Your party is dead. America has rejected your failed ideology. You made fools of yourself last night.

Please describe Trump's plan to repeal and replace obamacare. What will he replace it with?? That should be easy. I challenge you to answer with his plan.

He talked about this in his speech. Go listen to it.
his plan, from the speech. It accomplishes nothing:
Here are the principles that should guide the Congress as we move to create a better healthcare system for all Americans: First, we should ensure that Americans with pre-existing conditions have access to coverage, and that we have a stable transition for Americans currently enrolled in the health-care exchanges. Secondly, we should help Americans purchase their own coverage, through the use of tax credits and expanded health savings accounts, but it must be the plan they want, not the plan forced on them by our government. Thirdly, we should give our great state governors the resources and flexibility they need with Medicaid to make sure no one is left out. Fourth, we should implement legal reforms that protect patients and doctors from unnecessary costs that drive up the price of insurance – and work to bring down the artificially high price of drugs and bring them down immediately.And finally, the time has come to give Americans the freedom to purchase health insurance across state lines –- which will create a truly competitive national marketplace that will bring cost way down and provide far better care.

Tax credits and health savings accounts only help the well off.

Would someone explain to me what a Kool Aid drinker is?

It's an expression.

It started when someone tried to explain the crazies all gathering together and suggested "it must be something in the water". Then it moved onto "they are all drinking from the same water cooler". It mimicked the idea of spiking the Kool Aid (a fruit punch powdered mix) punch to get everyone drunk at a party.

So, references to drinking the Kool Aid, mean they are spiked with the same drugs from the same water cooler/punch bowl, and that explains why they all believe so ardently.

Trump said (emphasis added):

Here are the principles that should guide the Congress as we move to create a better healthcare system for all Americans:

First, we should ensure that Americans with pre-existing conditions have access to coverage, and that we have a stable transition for Americans currently enrolled in the healthcare exchanges. [Applause]

Secondly, we should help Americans purchase their own coverage, through the use of tax credits and expanded Health Savings Accounts –- but it must be the plan they want, not the plan forced on them by our Government. [Applause]

Thirdly, we should give our State Governors the resources and flexibility they need with Medicaid to make sure no one is left out. [Applause]

Fourthly, we should implement legal reforms that protect patients and doctors from unnecessary costs that drive up the price of insurance – and work to bring down the artificially high price of drugs and bring them down immediately. [Applause]

And finally, the time has come to give Americans the freedom to purchase health insurance across state lines –- [Applause] –- which will create a truly competitive national marketplace that will bring cost way down and provide far better care.

He concluded: “Everything that is broken in our country can be fixed. Every problem can be solved. And every hurting family can find healing, and hope.”

Access to coverage they can't afford. They're called high risk pools and have been proven not to work.
Secondly, we should help Americans purchase their own coverage, through the use of tax credits and expanded Health Savings Accounts –- but it must be the plan they want, not the plan forced on them by our Government. [Applause]
Tax Credits and Health Savings accounts only help the well off. You need to have enough income to "save" in a health savings account. Tax credits also benefit only those with enough income.
Thirdly, we should give our State Governors the resources and flexibility they need with Medicaid to make sure no one is left out. [Applause]
This doesn't mean anything.
Fourthly, we should implement legal reforms that protect patients and doctors from unnecessary costs that drive up the price of insurance – and work to bring down the artificially high price of drugs and bring them down immediately. [Applause]

Already in place, doesn't accomplish a thing.
He concluded: “Everything that is broken in our country can be fixed. Every problem can be solved. And every hurting family can find healing, and hope.”A platitude without a plan.

Drinking the Kool-Aid is a reference to the mass suicide in Guyana of the followers of Jim Jones from San Francisco. They drank cyanide laced kool-aid.

It is better to stick with a 1000 per month Obama care plan with a 10k deductible, right? That is only 22k per year before you can use your insurance. What a deal!

My post was about Mr Trump's plan. You have yet to address it.
