Trump said today that health care will be a \u201cgreat campaign issue.\u201d That\u2019s not good for him. New polls released this week show voters don\u2019t trust him on health care and oppose his efforts to take health care away from millions of Americans (shocker).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Health care continues to be the top issue for Americans.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Gallup<\/a>: \u201cFifty-five percent of Americans worry \u2018a great deal\u2019 about the availability and affordability of healthcare, topping Gallup’s list of potentially worrisome issues for the fifth straight year.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Public Policy Polling<\/a>: \u201cThe Affordable Care Act continues to enjoy the new found popularity it\u2019s had since Trump took office. 49% of voters support it to just 30% now who are opposed. There\u2019s strong opposition to the Justice Department\u2019s recently expressed support for striking down the Affordable Care Act- just 34% of voters agree with them on that to 53% who disagree.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Politico<\/a>: \u201cThe poll shows that any health care battle will be fought on Democrats\u2019 turf. Asked whom they trust when it comes to health care, 45 percent of voters pick Democrats in Congress, while 35 percent choose Republicans in Congress. A majority of voters, 54 percent, have \u2018a lot\u2019 or \u2018some\u2019 trust in congressional Democrats to protect the health care system or make improvements to it \u2014 significantly more than have those levels of trust in congressional Republicans (41 percent) or Trump (41 percent) on the issue. A 59 percent majority of voters say they don\u2019t have much trust or any trust at all in Trump on health care.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
