President Donald Trump is caught in a vicious, losing cycle of his own making. First, take aim at an Obama administration policy or law. Second, declare that you have something much better. Third, roll out the “something,” which turns out to be nothing viable — in other words, fail.
This was the story on Obamacare. Trump vilified the law and promised the most magnificent plan ever. There was no magnificent plan that would cover more people, give more choices and cost less. Instead the GOP trotted out something that would have covered fewer people and cost some people more.
