Former Vice President Joe Biden appeared at a town hall in Iowa over the weekend and was asked about ObamaCare.Giving a typically rambling non-answer, Biden did admit a couple of salient details: nope, you couldn’t keep your doctor “necessarily” as Obama repeatedly promised, and “no one did understand ObamaCare.”https://twitter.com/bennyjohnson/status/1213936406059454469The Daily Wire has a transcript:
During a question and answer session, a young man asked Biden about his support for Obamacare:
