Trump opposed ACA subsidies flowing to insurance companies rather than consumers.

Question

Accepted Answer

True. President Trump repeatedly stated he opposed enhanced ACA subsidies because they send "hundreds of billions of dollars" to insurance companies rather than directly to patients. On Truth Social, Trump wrote: "The only healthcare I will support is sending the money directly back to the people, with nothing going to the big, fat, rich insurance companies." He framed the subsidies as "Obamacare welfare" that enriches insurers at taxpayer expense, though the subsidies actually reduce consumer premiums by capping what enrollees pay.
