‘We failed at this before’: GOP rep says voters shouldn’t trust his party’s health care promises

Illinois Republican Congressman Adam Kinzinger admitted to CNN Monday that there was no reason for voters to trust his party's promise that they will fix the country's healthcare system after the 2020 election.

"When the president tells voters 'trust Republicans, we will come up with a plan after 2020,'" asked host Alisyn Camerota, cutting to the chase, "should voters trust him?"

"Well, I don't know," admitted Kinzinger. "We failed at this before, as you know. We had a plan that I thought was actually pretty good out of the House, went to the Senate, it failed there. So we've shown that we couldn't get that done."

"It's high time for Republicans and Democrats to try to get out of this 'only win and the other side loses way of healthcare,'" he added. "Let's try to find areas where we can agree and fix this problem, but honestly probably until next November it's not going to happen but I think we need to have these conversations."

"Obamacare is the law of the land and I look at this and say if there's areas where it's failing and I think there are, we should all try to find areas where we can fix it," he added, in a rebuke to the president's drive to do away with the program entirely. "Real people's lives are being impacted right now and I don't want Medicare for all but I also understand there is a role for the government on healthcare. I think 80% of Americans agree with that statement."
