WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump declared the Affordable Care Act a “meaningless promise” Monday, using his presidential bully pulpit to amplify his calls for action on stalled Republicans attempts to repeal and replace Obamacare — which he called “death” at one point.

“Obamacare has wreaked havoc on the lives of innocent, hard working Americans,” Trump said at the White House, joined by families who he said had suffered under the ACA.

The president attacked Democrats for their lack of bipartisanship and decried their criticism of Republican efforts to reform health care.

“They say death, death, death. Well, Obamacare is death,” Trump said. “That’s the one that’s death.”
