It just never ends with this guy. First he claims he came up with the Term "Priming the Pump" to get the economy jump started.
Now it is that he knows everything about health care. It is no wonder he thinks it would be an honor to meet little Kim and that the NK leader is a "smart cookie". They both use the same mirror.

He acknowledged to Time interviewers that health care was not an area of expertise in his previous job. ?It was just not high on my list,? he said. But he added that ?in a short period of time I understood everything there was to know about health care.?
Then to show he is willing to blow up the system without a replacement.

One health issue Trump is clearly not ignorant about is his power to stop paying insurance companies who are providing help to some low-income policyholders in the health insurance exchanges. The ?cost-sharing reductions? are the subject of a lawsuit that was appealed by the Obama administration, and Trump could, in fact, stop the payments by dropping the appeal.
Insurers say uncertainty about whether they will get that money is a key reason they are asking for higher rates or dropping out of markets.
Trump did not help allay that uncertainty. He told The Economist that ?we don't have to subsidize it. You know if I ever stop wanting to pay the subsidies, which I will.?
