In one of his final Weekly Addresses before leaving the White House Barack Obama promoted his failed Obamacare law.
Obamacare is a disaster.
US healthcare costs are skyrocketing.
Here are the average increase in premiums in battleground states.
Ohio: 13.12% increase
Florida: 17.40% increase
Pennsylvania: 32.5% increase
Nevada: 11.74% increase
Maine: 21.24% increase
New Hampshire: 12.44% increase
Virginia: 21.68% increase
North Carolina: 24.30% increase
Iowa: 20.46% increase
Michigan: 16.06% increase
Wisconsin: 20.39% increase
Even Bill Clinton said it was a disaster.
“One of the problems with a law, we can all tick them off, right? The copays, deductibles and premiums are too high, and the drug prices are too high. So what does she say we should do? We should bargain for lower drug prices, the way that government can’t now with Medicare and Medicaid for everybody.”
Here’s the video:

The Twitter comments were hilarious.
@WhiteHouse @POTUS It's *not* affordable. It's *available.* There is a huge difference in meaning.
