https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the ... alth-care/President Trump claimed a victory Thursday after the House approved a more free-market approach to health care.
Then he capped it off by praising a country with government-run, universal health care.
Alongside Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull at an event in New York, Trump reflected on what the House had just done. He took the occasion to bash Obamacare as being terrible, and then he turned to Turnbull.
"We have a failing health care — I shouldn't say this to our great gentleman and my friend from Australia," Trump said, as The Post's Abby Phillip reports, "because you have better health care than we do."
Australia's health-care system is run by the government. It's essentially a single-payer, Medicare-for-all system that is available to everyone, with private insurance also available. (They even call it "Medicare.")

Trump’s forbidden love: Single-payer health care
We need to start a drinking game: take a drink every time someone on Trump's staff cringes when Trump says something contradictory in public, that they need to explain...
Christians warn us about the anti-christ for 2,000 years, and when he shows up, they buy a bible from him.
