President Trump threatens to cut Obamacare payments



  

   President Donald Trump has threatened to withhold key Obamacare subsidies for health insurers in order to force Democrats to negotiate a new deal.

   According to reports, Insurers say if the reimbursements to help cover out-of-pocket medical expenses for the poor are cut, it could send Obamacare into a death spiral.
But President Trump says the move might force Democrats to the negotiating table.
   His comments come three weeks after Republicans failed to secure a bill to overhaul the US healthcare system.
    It would be recalled that President Trump vowed to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, former President Barack Obama's signature healthcare law, during the presidential election.
