Donald Trump tried to sidestep giving a policy position on health care, and walked straight off of a rhetorical cliff.

During the presidential debate Tuesday night, Trump struggled to answer a question about his healthcare plan, accidentally revealing that he didn’t have one at all.

After his particularly lackluster response criticizing Obamacare but giving no alternatives, ABC moderate Linsey Davis asked Trump outright if he knew what he was talking about. “Yes or no, you still do not have a plan?” she said.

I have concepts of a plan,” Trump replied. “I’m not president right now.”

    His plan is project 2025 which he can’t say when he’s tried claiming he has nothing to do with it. But project 2025 has healthcare changes

      Honestly I suspect he was vaguely aware of it, vaguely on board with it but once he was informed of how unpopular it was he started distancing himself

      Edit: I don’t think he saw how unpopular it was, I think he was correctly informed of that by his campaign staff
