President Donald Trump on Thursday revealed a health care proposal he dubbed the “Great Healthcare Plan,” outlining a set of cost-cutting ideas but stopping short of offering a detailed replacement for the Affordable Care Act. The proposal does not include new ideas to expand health coverage or simplify America’s often-byzantine health care system. “Trump’s health care plan is … a subsidy,” Grace Silva, a spokeswoman for 314 Action, a liberal advocacy group working to elect scientists and physicians to government, wrote in a statement. It should be our issue,” Trump told House Republicans at a policy session last week. Americans are more likely to trust Democrats than Republicans on health care issues, polls show.
