President Trump promised to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act "immediately" and "on Day 1" while on the campaign trail. “I never said I was going to repeal and replace in the first 61 days,” he said to Costa with a laugh — undercounting his time in office by a bit. When he offered a public statement a bit later, he’d figured out the proper number:Trump: "I never said 'repeal and replace it within 64 days.' " — Matt Pearce (@mattdpearce) March 24, 2017Trump is correct: At no point in time did he pledge to repeal and replace Obamacare in 61 or 64 days. Instead, he pledged to demand a repeal on Day One — even if it took a special session of Congress to make it happen.
