Trump walks back message on healthcare
In less than 48 hours, President Trump retreated on his promise of sweeping healthcare reform and the claim that the Republican party would be the party of healthcare. Trump now says he will wait until after the 2020 election, perhaps making it an even more contentious issue for voters.
Trump had pledged in recent days to use court action to end the Affordable Care Act and said the Republican Party would push over the next few months for a better healthcare plan at lower cost for most Americans.
But Republican leaders in Congress quickly shied away from the issue and pushed him to reconsider.
