President s plan along. the time is here. the time is now. this is the moment. and this is the closest this will ever happen. reporter: but the president continues taking an active role trying to close the deal. inviting members of the congressional freedom congress to bowl at the white house. even many of them have suggested the plan is a gutter ball. meeting with leaders of conservative groups from the heritage foundation to tea party supporters, and making plans to hit the road and whip up popular support. i think, really, that we re going to have something that s going to be much more understood and much more popular than people can even imagine. reporter: it s all very different from what we saw when president obama was pushing his health reform plan. indeed, he was sharply critic e criticized for not engaging with congress enough. then again, his plan did eventually pass, and we don t know yet if president trump s
Happen. reporter: but the president continues taking a very active role himself trying to close the deal. inviting members of the congressional freedom caucus to bowl at the white house, even as many of them suggested his plan as a gutter bowl. meeting with leaders of numerous influential conservative groups and making plans to hit the road and whip up popular support, too. i think really that we re going to have something that will be much more understood and much more popular than people can imagine. reporter: it s very different from what president barack obama was pushing his health reform plan. indeed, he was sharply criticized for not engaging with congress enough. then again, his plan did eventually pass and we don t know yet if president trump s will. anderson? tom, thanks very much. let s get more insight. joining me is michael d. antonio, author of the truth
it is but i don t think the deals will happen. i think we will get to 2020 with the replacement still not there and maybe they ll extend the time to get the replacement. you know, it s sort of amazing. you and i talked about this, that the law passed in 2010. from the moment it passed, they said it should be repealed or replaced. they still don t have their replacement and i ll bet you right here that ten years after the law passed they will not have a replacement. the reason they won t have a replacement is that obamacare is the republican health reform plan. the democrats tried all of their plans. they have tried single payer. they have been trying plans since the truman administration. the clinton administration tried it and obama finally gave up and said, all right, let s do mitt romney s heritage society s republican plan. that s why they don t have an alternative plan because
The law passed they will not have a replacement. the reason they won t have a replacement is that obamacare is the republican health reform plan. the democrats tried all of their plans. they have tried single payer. they have been trying plans since the truman administration. the clinton administration tried it and obama finally gave up and said, all right, let s do mitt romney s heritage society s republican plan. that s why they don t have an alternative plan because obamacare is their plan. kellyanne conway, which is ris can i to mention her. we know she doesn t speak for donald trump. no one does. but she said today on morning joe we don t want anyone who currently has insurance to not have insurance. so not one person currently covered under obamacare can lose their insurance and the only way to do that is to preserve obamacare. here s the problem, you are
Provide more money to effectively implement it. under fire, the president is trying to shift the onus on republicans, to come up with alternatives on health care and a range of other issues. if you don t think we should raise the minimum wage, let s hear your idea to increase people s earnings. reporter: leading one republican to hold up a gop health reform plan and mock the president s claims he ll talk to anyone who can improve the new law. we ve asked, haven t heard a word. so my phone my phone number in the office, 225-4510. reporter: now, meanwhile an aide to senator harry reid confirmed today that he s exempting some of his staff from enrolling in the health care exchange. their current plan is simply far more generous. certainly seems hypocritical. we should note there are some republicans on the hill who are also exempting staff. did you want to give out your phone number, ed? reporter: no. ed, thank you. the dow is down for the fourth straight day, losing 25.
President seemed to downgrade the pledge that most would get better coverage at lower prices. there s a good chance they ll be able to buy better insurance at lower cost. reporter: in fact one insurance plan that asked not to be identified analyzed its pool of 375,000 people and found even after subsidies, only 10% would actually see a decrease in costs, while one-third would face significant rate increases as a result of obama care. bret. jim, thank you. the president s par end up paying a stiff price for obama care. senior political analyst britt has some thoughts on that. the president s health reform plan is the stuff of jokes but the plts plit cal consequences will be felt. it s likely to prove the least of the problems. mr. obama s deceptive promise that no one would lose their doctors, hospitals or health insurance has done far greater
So i think we do need disruption in the health care markets. it s not unreasonable for a health reform plan to cause d disrupti disruption. but if republicans are saying everybody should be able to keep their plan, they re against any reform. josh barrow and krystal ball, thank you. very spirit the opening. rick perry gallops back into the dusk light. but first, a live picture of air force one which just touched down in miami. stay with us.
