Mark Cuban: Donald Trump Doesn’t Understand Obamacare
- 7 years ago
On a recent interview on the CNBC program Squawk Alley, billionaire Mark Cuban stated that Donald Trump doesn’t ‘understand what Obamacare really is or how it works.’
Billionaire Mark Cuban has claimed that Donald Trump is uninformed about Obamacare.
The outspoken Hillary Clinton supporter made the comments on Tuesday during the CNBC program Squawk Alley.
At one point, Cuban said about Trump, “He was ripping on Obamacare because of some of the pricing that came out. And he blurts out that his employees are suffering because of Obamacare not realizing that he has insurance for them.”
Cuban was referring to some statements the Republican nominee made during a campaign stop at one of his properties, Trump National Doral Miami resort, when he told the crowd, in part, “...all of my employees are having a tremendous problem with Obamacare….You look at what they’re going through with their healthcare is horrible because of Obamacare. So we’ll repeal it and replace it…”
A resort director later confirmed that about 95 percent of the workers there have health care through the company.
As such, Cuban stated about the nominee on Squawk Alley, “He's demonstrated again and again he doesn't even understand what Obamacare really is or how it works.”
However, during the interview, Cuban did acknowledge that the program is not working out for people in certain states but indicated that some miscalculations are to be expected because “Obamacare is one of the biggest startups of all time.”
