Trump cuts Obamacare Ad Spending by 90%
Quote:The Trump administration said Thursday it is slashing its budget on advertising for ObamaCare enrollment for next year.

Advertising will be cut to $10 million for the 2018 open enrollment season, officials at Health and Human Services said. That's down from $100 million for the 2017 sign-up season.

“The Trump administration is determined to serve the American people instead of trying to sell them a bad deal,” Health and Human Services press secretary Caitlin Oakley said.

Funding for consumer helpers called "navigators" will also be cut, from $62.5 million for 2017, to about $36 million for next year.

“Under the Trump Administration, we’re committed to more responsible, effective government,” Oakley said. “ObamaCare’s Navigator program has been ineffective. During the upcoming enrollment period, Navigators will be funded in proportion to their performance.”

I didn't realize they were still running ads for it. I have not seen an ad for federal or state healthcare exchanges since about a year or two after Obamacare went effect.

It's almost like this character would like to see it fail. Can you believe that?

I think we're all watching it fail.

Best thing is to put it -- and us -- out of its misery.

As long as he's trying to make it fail he should understand that these actions mean he is taking ownership of health care going forward. I can now blame him for it's failure. Add this to his failure to repeal and replace. So much failure.... Sad 05-stirthepot

He needn't do one single thing to see that. It's imploding under its own weight; exactly as designed.

Nobody will ever be able to take ownership of it. It will go down forever as ObamaCare. Ownership is in the name.

He's not causing it to fail. It's failing on its own. He's not taking superhuman steps to save it, but would such steps be worthwhile?

Putting more money into advertising for Oblundercare would be like feeding a super obese person more and more food knowing that instead of feeding him/her it would be better to lessen the intake amount.

Or throwing money into a bottomless pit hoping that the money would eventually it wouldn't be bottomless anymore.

if you're watching any ads for anything at this point, you're just not quick enough on the draw.....

when they become inescapable, it will simply become #costa and #fockall

I hate if for the easy and brainwashed turds.....they know not what they do....

I guess my question is who by now does not know about this? What do Ads accomplish?

Why are you congratulating him? He is still spending 10%. Shouldn't spend any.
