Trump insists he‘ll have a health care plan that protects preexisting conditions, but doesn’t point to a proposal or say what policies would be in it amid repeated questioning from Stahl. He repeats that he’d like SCOTUS to invalidate the ACA. “It’ll be so good if they end it.”

Trump on a health care plan: “It’s fully developed. It’s going to be announced very soon, when we see what happens with Obamacare.” Then he says “large sections” of it are written, points to previous GOP plans, says he’ll “make a deal” on a bill. (There is currently not a plan.)

STAHL: What about people with pre-existing conditions? TRUMP: I’ll protect it. Will be totally protected STAHL: How? TRUMP: They’ll be protected Lesley STAHL: How? TRUMP: I mean the people w/ pre-ex are going to be protected STAHL: How? TRUMP: As they are now STAHL: How?

For context: The way pre-existing conditions are protected "now" under Obamacare: (1) Guaranteed issue, i.e. insurers can't turn down customers, (2) Community rating, i.e. insurers can't charge sicker people higher prices, (3) A minimum benefit package for all policies.

There currently isn't a Trump or party-wide plan but prior GOP plans approach pre-existing conditions differently. House-passed AHCA in '17 and Graham-Cassidy had waivers from community rating, enabling higher costs for sick people, lower for healthy. Some want high-risk pools.

Point being, the notion that the two parties agree on pre-existing conditions is ahistorical fiction. This issue is in many ways at the core of the intense health care division.

The Republicans called it Obamacare in an attempt to make it unpalatable and it backfired.
