President-elect Donald Trump again criticized the Affordable Care Act with a series of tweets Tuesday morning.
Trump first pointed to a speech former President Bill Clinton gave back in October 2016, in which he called the Affordable Care Act a “crazy system.”“People must remember,” Trump wrote on Tuesday, “that ObamaCare [sic] just doesn’t work, and it is not affordable — 116 percent increases (Arizona).”
