US President Trump lauds health workers but still faces opposition slashes

Donald Trump is now seen appreciating the initiatives of health workers. Over three-and-a-half years into his presidency and 40 days from an election, President Donald Trump on Thursday began what aides termed a “vision” for health care heavy on unfulfilled aspirations. He said, “This is affirmed, signed, and done, so we can put that to rest.”  He signed an executive order on many issues, including protecting people with prevailing medical conditions from insurance discrimination. But that right was already guaranteed in the Obama-era as health law during his administration.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi dismissively declared Trump’s talks as “bogus executive order on pre-existing conditions isn’t worth the paper it’s signed on.” Democrats are backing heavily that they have the edge on health care as elections are near. Trump was speaking at an airport hangar in swing-state North Carolina to a gathering that included white-coated, mask-wearing health care workers. He stood on the dais in front of a blue background embellished with “America First Healthcare Plan.” His latest health care pitch won lauds from department officials and political supporters but failed to impress others.

“Executive orders issued close to elections are not the same thing as actual policies,” stated Katherine Hempstead, a senior policy adviser with the nonpartisan Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, which works on a range of health care issues, from coverage to quality. Trump’s speech served up a clear political attack, as he blamed Democrats for wanting to unleash a “socialist nightmare” on the US health care system, complete with rationing. But Democratic nominee Joe Biden has discarded calls from his party’s left for a government-run plan for all. Instead, the former vice president wants to expand the Affordable Care Act, and add a new public program as an option.
