I mean I suppose you can look at it that way. We can’t really prove one way or another what he actually wanted. But if we’re basing what he wanted on his actions, I don’t see how you can pin that one on him.
Like he tried to get a public option, the president can’t just make universal healthcare. It needs to pass the house and Senate.
Idk about the others in your original comment and I won’t pretend to, but it’s pretty well documented that he would not have been able to get even a public option. How would he have been able to get universal healthcare if he couldn’t even do this?
Correction: He said he wanted it, but based on his actions, those words were just the usual empty politicking we’ve come to expect.
