On Monday, President Joe Biden took a moment to call attention to GOP efforts to repeal Obamacare in a speech aimed at his efforts to improve the economy and supply chains.
“My predecessors, once again, call for cuts that could rip away health insurance for tens of millions of Americans on Medicaid,” said Biden at the White House.
Biden’s jab came after Donald Trump posed on Truth Social that he is “seriously looking at alternatives” to Obamacare and how the law does provide “good Healthcare.”
Trump added that the failure to repeal Obamacare was a “low point for the Republican Party” after Republican senators voted against the bill.
