No sir, it was fucked before Obama even came on the scene and we all know it.
The US has a health insurance system, not a health care system. It's about private insurance making a fortune by denying care.
@@reidwhitton6248 exactly. It's funny how Ann Coulter never mentioned their huge profits.
No sir, you're wrong. In the years leading up to obamcare it was getting worse, but nothing like what obamacare did. obamacare was designed to do exactly what it did, destroy everthing so we would all have to go on government healthcare, it greatly increased the power to his butties in the insurance industry and they hosed us all.
At least for me and my family after obamacare our insurance got more expensive, less coverage, deductible got higher and copay as well.
It might benefit low income families, and that idk. I'm just assuming since ours got more expensive.
But yes, it was not perfect before obamacare.
I got cancer when I was 22, without Obamacare allowing me to be on my parents insurance I would have been completely fkd, now for me the not being able to be denied based upon preexisting conditions helps me a ton obviously. It's not perfect, but it was absolutely horrible before it came and its still pretty god damn bad even after.
Hillary Clinton spent the 8 years of her husband's presidency trying to fashion a health care system. Utterly failed. Obama care barely passed - almost all Republicans voted against. Then along comes Trump who says "Nobody knew health care could be so complicated."
There should be a super cheap insurance plan no frills for a healthy 22 year old. That's the problem with Obamacare.
I didn't have cancer but a serious deficiency and literally that plan saved me too. There was no chance for insurance where I lived. I hope you are healed and well now!
@@johnfox901 That's a very valid criticism. My 25 year old makes too much money but not enough and cannot afford any of it.
Obama care made me paid $900 a month for health insurance when I bought health insurance by myself a few years ago. Who gave Obama the right to use our money to do charity? Why did not him use his own money to help the people like you? He is so rich and lived in a mansion. I dare not retire and still working. The money paid your bill is from American folks. You only credit it to Obama. Is this fair for the rest of people paid sky high health insurance?
Obamacare? Really? That's where she's placing blame?🤦♂
no mention of the billions dollars profits
Yes!! You know why?? Because they are trying to distract WE THE PEOPLE!!! Theyre afraid because they saw the right left & everyone in between coming together & THAT is thrur BIGGEST fear!!! I dont blame them tho…..they SHOULD be afraid……Especially BILLIONAIRES like Ann Coulter (yes shes a billionaire) who like to pretend they are just a “regular” ole people who really care about regular everyday Americans!!!

atleast she did not blame the tan suit
@@RockBrentwood I don't follow, please explain.
@@RockBrentwood Yep, all his healthcare was out of his own pocket from then out out.
Greed greed greed and greed.
Agree, agree, agree, agree. A nation's health should not be determined by who can afford it. I'm 71, have had two heart attacks and a Covid hospitalization. My only concern is that my kids don't inherit the 10s of thousands of dollars of medical debt that I couldn't pay if I started robbing banks.
One thing I've learned in this life is greed is insatiable.
No. Government corruption. Insurance companies are highly regulated. It's obamacare that forces them to offer certain coverages. The price is the price. Ann is very clear and correct about this.
Basically we are paying for two industries instead of one like we used to; the insurance and medical industries and it's going to cost more. I don't use any insurance at all (not even Medicare and I'm 78) but since most people do I've noticed how medical cost have skyrocketed. Most doctors do not look at patients as the client anymore but to the insurance company instead. Then when the insurance company denies some of the costs then the patient is charged who has already paid a lot of money for insurance. I now go to a doctor who doesn't take insurance at all and boy, does it make a difference. He treats me with respect, listens to me, and tells me the truth. It's not only ObamaCare that ruined health care but IMO the intrusion of the insurance industry and big pharma into health care.
If not for obamacare i wouldve died 10yrs ago so NO obamacare usnt broken!!! All obamacare did was set up rules for ins companies one being thry can deny ppl like myself due to pre existing conditions!!! IF an industry “breaks” because they are legally made to provide care for everyone paying premiums than the system doesnt deserve to exist in its current form!!!! Unlike YOU some of us have to see doctors and more than one and i dont know a whole lot of specislists who take no ins and see patients on a cash only basis!!! I can barely afford ins premiums copays etc so I highly doubt i could afford to pay cash for appts plus blood tests CT scans etc & ALL the many medications im on!!
*Can NOT deny ppl with pre-existing conditions!!!
I agree. I am done with dental insurance, medigap insurance and plan d insurance. I am self-insuring, and go to a 'cash discount' dentist. Costco for eyeglasses and hearing aids. Where did you find doctor that takes cash? Yes, go back to old fashioned business, prior to insurance. Just list your prices. I would also go to a cash only doctor, if I knew any. Currently, I take no western medicine prescriptions, but do take a lot of natural supplements, low cost of course. I am doing well, no serious conditions, and I am 70 now.
Healthcare costs less per person in every european state than america, by a lot. American healthcare costs more and is worse than state-ran healthcare
Exactly it’s much more complicated than people realized
She is still relevant to someone? Also egregious liar.
She has the spotlight, she has to be outrageous to get the attention she needs
Yes....the most elitist, vile, and out of touch faces in "polite" society....
@prometheusrex1 she still refers to Obama as a Muslim, good enough for you?
She is full of it!!! EVERY LEGAL AMERICAN SHOULD HAVE THE SAME MEDICAL INSURANCE AS MEMBERS OF CONGRESS AND THE SENATE.
She’s not expert in healthcare business. America had terrible healthcare system. 650,000 people go bankrupt because of medical bills America is the only Tier 1 country without Universal healthcare system. 2022 report shows America healthcare system it’s 4.4 trillion dollars a year. Universal healthcare system would cost 3.2 trillion dollars a year. She’s a mouthpiece for the rich people and corporations
You might be right, but have you ever lived or had an extended stay in a country with a social Universal Healthcare system? A lot of those systems are failing, wait times are ridiculously long, the care is poor quality and a lot of people who can afford it end up getting American style private Healthcare insurance
@@RealBreal Which Universal healthcare system in developed countries is failing?
@@RealBreal What a load of garbage. Whilst no healthcare system is perfect, it is damn sure 10x better than anything the US has dished up. I've experience both the UK and Australian healthcare system and it is far far superior than the US.
Yup! She's full of it. Without the ACA, millions would lose health care coverage. We could have a genuine universal health care system but our Congress would rather spend over a trillion a year on the military and bankroll private insurance companies.
@@RealBreal Which systems are failing? By the way, I did live in Holland for a few years, and never paid a penny for healthcare. The wait times were the exact same as here in the USA too. You have fallen for corporate propaganda.
PLEASE don't have Coulter on. She's a loon. Abrams - don't have her on again. She's irrelevant. What kind of health care does she have? That's what you should have asked her.
She’s great - she has written column on the insurance that she is subjected to because of Obamacare. Do a little research
Everybody who has healthcare either provided to them for free (Congress) or for a small part of their income is happy with their coverage. We have some of the best health care in the world, and the absolute worst method of dispensing it.
@@nicksmith128Trump had 4 years to do something about healthcare. The first 2 years he had a Republican congress.
How many times did he say he was close to having a plan while he was president?
Now he has a concept of a plan.

Abrams is a loon too. Both establishment elitist. The status quo.
No, and don’t be so stupid. It’s for profit healthcare.
Profit and healthcare….. two words that should not appear in the same sentence!!
And to maintain a level of profit while enduring massive government regulation and interference, prices go which way?
Go check out England's NHS for some 'not-for-profit' healthcare. Just look at their teeth.
Wrong. Pet insurance, which is also for-profit, is cheap. Health insurance is over-regulated.
Yep, Everyone that actually works in healthcare knows that Ann is 100% correct...
This woman is unhinged
She is a BILLIONAIRE so it’s to be expected!!! Shes also a damn liar!! The powers that be gave her marching orders!! They saw the left right & everyone in between coming together & they can NOT have that so they dialed Coulter & ordered her to come tell LIES so maybe they could trick enough people & break up our unity!!! No WAY!!! Not workin!!
This lady is so out of touch herself. She sounds like a private insurance shareholder drain pipe.
Hope nobody fall for this. The affordable care act has help a lot of people. We all know the problem is for profit insurance middleman’s.
Everyone that actually works in healthcare knows that Ann is 100% correct...
@ I know how it works and it has saved lives. People have been screwed over for profit Medicare way before Obama.
Youve got to be kidding me... No.
What an idiotic thing to say. Funny how the insurance companies have RECORD profits, especially United Healthcare but that wouldn't have a thing to do with it, only Obamacare. Make it make sense. Also if not for Obamacare people with pre-existing conditions wouldn't even get coverage to take advantage of. This is totally unhinged. I'm sick of divisive people like her.
The Ben Shapiros, Anns, Dans, Matts....what do these people have in common that are trying to make this partisan and divisive???
What they have in common is: intelligence, common sense, and they will make this country amazing.
@@Simon-talks Blaming the ACA that has saved many lives (including my own in 2017) while not blaming this company that had record profits with a massive claim denial rate is absolutely ludicrous. The ACA isn't perfect but please do show me what your party has come up with? Oh that's right, concepts of a plan. How "amazing".
That said, Ann DOES have some intelligence when she isn't being a complete petty tool. This interview was not her finest moment.
@@Simon-talks You clearly know nothing about healthcare because a quick search not to mention actually SPEAKING WITH HEALTHCARE WORKERS would tell you that Annie is indeed wrong. Healthcare in AMERICA WAS ALWAYS broken and as a result there were always millions who fell victim to our for profit system. Tell us that you're a bootlicker without telling us that you're a bootlicker. We need a way to root out the ceo enemies and PEOPLE LIKE YOU who run cover for them.
@@Simon-talks So are you denying that United Healthcare didn't gain massive profits that went up significantly under Brian Thompson and that they have the highest denial rate? Because those are both facts and they would not be related to Obamacare which most people just call the ACA these days unless their grievance is political.
No, I don't work in healthcare but what I did do was work several years on a large scale project for news reporting and accuracy and healthcare made up a decent amount of my work. There was criticism of the ACA in terms of in-network availability and premium costs.
But even as of a few years ago the denial rate for claims through anyone covered via the ACA was relatively lower than private and definitely lower than United as a whole. 32 to 33% is outrageous and if it was the ACA responsible then we would see those denial rates across the board with all of the rest of the insurance companies.
However, if you have a specific criticism as to why and how the ACA would have contributed to this situation beyond "ruined it", I'd be interested to hear.
I see the bigger problem as so many are here illegally and receiving free health care and other benefits.
No, the problem is our healthcare system is for profit, not for people.
United Healthcare had billions of extra dollars in profits under the leadership of that CEO while their claim denials went up to 32%, twice the normal amount. HAS ZERO TO DO with immigrants. Stop letting them divide us with these ridiculous beliefs as to who the REAL enemy is. That's what they want.
@@reidwhitton6248 No the problem is Obamacare is mandated by the Govt and everyone knows the Fed Govt is a screwup when it comes to manipulating industries.
Ann Coulter blaming the Black guy... HOW PREDICTABLE YOU ARE ANN! your act is tired.
She's hilarious.
Can I get my 4:44 minutes back?
Ann tells it like it is.
She LIES!!! Thats ALL billionaire Ann Coulter does!!
Dan should shut his mouth and let Ann cook.
Everyone that actually works in healthcare knows that Ann is 100% correct...

Host invites guest. Host talks over guest, arguing with her, not allowing her to speak. Next time don't invite guest.
I don't appreciate Coulter
American made medicine is solid in Canada at 1/4 of its price in USA .
That’s crazy considering just about everything else is more expensive up here.
She’s right! Insurance. Can’t cover everything
"why arent they angry at the shareholders"... Umm, because shareholders are some of the Americans who are also furious with the healthcare system. They're smart enough to be angry at the healthcare system and how broken it is, but they're not dumb enough not to try to make something off of it. Welcome to America.
Health care is a disaster.
Why as a black man do i love Ann so much? Something about bring upfront and not sugar coating who you are
I love seeing ALL of the media flopping at trying to get us back in line.
Why aren't they stating that people are sick of paying high premiums so that executives can earn $10M.
The insurance company have been getting billions of $ in profits for decades. Healthcare is a right not a privilege for just those can afford it. If the ACA is dismantled there would no longer be Healthcare for pre-existing condition.
I have a blue cross policy in NC because of obamacare. I have never had a problem with it. What is she talking about?
This saga won’t be over anytime soon. As more and more Americans’ insurance claims get denied, more and more support will grow for Luigi. Day by day. Tic toc.
Ann has no idea what it costs to insure a family, clueless
100% clueless!!! What she doesn't know she lies about!!! Billionaires like Coulter are SO out of touch it’s disgusting!! MSM needs to stop talking to billionaires about these issues & talk to American’s who've been destroyed by our predatory health ins industry!!!
Liberals praise Luigi Mangeone but decry Daniel Penny!
Blanket statements are typically wrong
Quit making up stories please
Read the tenth commandments 📖 judgment day 💥
I voted for Trump, and I support Luigi.
Abrams : "Let's talk about the Mangione case."
Coulter talks about the Mangione case.
Abrams: "No, not like that."
ann coulter once again is right and never gets distracted by the noice
Oh, we are UNITED on this. Republicans and Democrats both are DONE with our horribly corrupt healthcare system. We finally have something both sides are passionate about. I don’t care how it gets fixed. We need to put pressure on our politicians, BOTH SIDES, to stop the lobbyists paying off the worms in Congress and fix this s$&t!
The architect of Obamacare said it would make things worse!!!! It has not improved anything.
perhaps Dan should consider those murdered by United Heathcare.
This is very short on journalistic integrity.
That is literally ALL of MSM!!! Anyone who'd have billionaire Ann Coulter on to talk about or even ask her opinion about this topic shouldn’t be in journalism!!
Care will always end up being rationed, and no Healthcare system, whether socialized (like in GB), private insurance, VA or hybrid (like Obamacare) can really "work" for the following reasons:
1. Doctors and hospitals don't or won't locate themselves in rural areas.
2. A large percentage of people are hypochondriacs and/or lonely and clog up the system with unneeded doctor and ER visits.
3. People won't make lifestyle changes that obviate their later need for acute care.
4. Unlike car insurance, health insurance is asked to tackle more than just freak accidents, because in the end, we all get sick and die anyway.
5. Despite great advances in medical science, there's still no cost-effective cure for a lot of things, including cancer.
obama care is reason
Obamacare literally saved my life!!
You really fell for what she said?
obamna said keep your doctor
Before Obamacare you could be denied care for preexisiting conditions
@@RobertZemeckis2025 i kept my doctor.
I’m 62 and paying $30,000/yr. In premiums!!!!!
The insurance industry profits have skyrocketed since the passage of the ACA. For many years, Americans were mandated by law to purchase their product or pay a fine. The majority of ACA policy holders pay a reduced premium that is subsidized by the taxpayers. Add to that the expansion of Medicaid, also paid for by taxpayers. Remember Obama’s ‘bend the cost curve of health insurance’? Yeah, he sure didn’t.
Obamacare had ZERO to do with the ins industry making record profits year after year!!!! Only thing Obamacare dud was tell the ins industry they csnt deny ins coverage to people like myself who have a pre existing condition!! Who doesn't have one by age 40? If not for Obamacare i would've been gone 10yrs ago!! Healthcare and profit are two words that should never be in the same sentence!!! When medicine is profit motivated you're gonna see alot of death!!!
If it’s never going to be fixed, I should just invest in healthcare stocks. Lol
Buy the dip
The only solution is Medicare for all.
Sorry. But billions in profits could go a long way to help everyone. So don’t blame Obama care, even though it suck! These CEOs and the healthcare industry are making hundreds of billions in profits. And that’s their goal.
incredible how she ties in the 'trans-issue' as part of this argument.
Ann is a horrible person, way off mark, and you need to stop having her on.
0:56 Dan, this is (shockingly) a worse take than Ann. You, NewsNation, and this country should be having this conversation every day. You should have already been talking about this months ago. People are denied healthcare coverage every day, people go into medical debt every day, other “fathers” are dying every day because of UnitedHeathcare. I guess you are lucky enough that this isn’t an everyday issue for you. For too many, it is.
The situation is sad all around. I feel bad for the CEO’s kids, Luigi had such a bright future. This didn’t have to happen. If there’s one good thing that can come out of it, let it be this conversation. Don’t try to shut it down so Luigi doesn’t “win”. Then, we will all loose and someone died for no reason.
After what she said to Vivek about why she would never vote for, why is she even on the air? She is straight up racist.
Medicare for All.
Ann Coulter is so irrelevent.
Was, will
WRONG! She is brilliant. Has more brain in her than all the politicians combined.
She lost her way back in 2018. Now, shes on tv shows i never heard of.
These people are all liars. This lady is so full of shit. People deal with health insurance companies everyday they are not wrong. ACA has been gutted by republican and only working people feel that pain.
Well her POV is consistent. Health care is a human right not a right of the rich.
And why did the video cut off? I felt there was more to be said.
well does not she looks fabulous in her 60'
One of the most enlightening days of my life was when I was on a jury and listened to how the women on the jury were going to convict the defendant because of his looks. My respect for women went out the window that day.
Guess you have not been following the Wade Wilson case?? I hope you did your duty and reported this alleged crime to the judge!!!
@LynetteA68 This was 35 years ago. I was 28 years old, and everybody was older than me.
William Wallace was the Catalyst for change
Repeal Obamacare.
John mcain
And replace it with what? The “concept of a plan”?
Completely delusional to think this would even help. Please tell me, how is Obamacare making things worse?
So people like myself can die?? I would've died 10yrs ago if it were not for the ACA!! Why are so many Americans ok with other Americans dying just because they cannot get ins??
Obamacare gave Americans choice, especially when they need to leave their job. For profit healthcare is the issue... you're way off base Ann.
Obamacare is not great, but it fixed some problems.
Had both for me both terrible
I completely fail to understand why folks even entertain this poor soul (Ann Coulter)?
Dan shut your mouth and let your quest speak.
She has NOTHING valuable to say!! Shes also a liar!! Why he evej invited her (another billionaire) on to discuss this instead of Americans who are victims of the health ins industry is beyond me!!! They bring ppl like BILLIONAIRE Ann Coulter on when they see the right left and everyone in between coming together!! The people coming together is their biggest nightmare!!!
He's a real life Peter Parker!
Suits meets Robin Hood. He’s cute and sexy
Always like hearing Ann’s opinion, she seems to give a more nuanced take - there’s always underlying commentary that she mentions
My favorite diva
No on has a right to someone elses labor. Thats slavery.
They have cameras in the restaurant. Like to see video and the employee’s story.
Ann has wonderful insurance with no cares in the world.
Coming from Ann who is an inside trader herself.
I love her
Finally Broken Promises. Again
forgot i do agree w/ ann coulter 1 thing about being 1st born in america can not run to be for president
He was told if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor... Luigi must have been serious
Which was true!! I kept my doctor & I still have the same doctor today!!
@LynetteA68 obviously your happy or you wouldn't reply to a comment. Would you like to discuss what failure Obamacare is ? Caution it'll be different than the little bubble you're in
Uh oh. I'm excited about the picks
Ann Kkkoulter someone how twistedly blames this on Obama and trans people.
Double the people die from lack of insurance since 2002
Huh??? Are you saying double ppl died since 2002 due to Obamacare? Obamacare saved ny life! I would've been gone 10yrs ago if it were not for Obamacare!! THANK YOU OBAMA!!!
Abrams is a know nothing liberal.
isn't obama care are 1 in the same as the affordable health care act?
I believe so.
Yep
We ABSOLUTELY ARE living under Obamacare.
THANK GOD for that or i would've been dead 10yrs ago!!!
@ My daughter is also having to use it, Lynette. It is saving her, yet is not helping her in the long run. It will never change. Very very sad.
Tsarnov bro
😂🤣😂
Mr. Barack Obama couldn’t sleep at night. He was always thinking about the wellbeing of his fellow citizens. That’s why he created the “ Obama Care “ .
It saved my life!! I would've been dead 10yrs ago if not for Obamacare!!! I think ppl forgot the days before Obamacare when ins could deny you coverage or charge you so much you couldnt afford it if you had ANY pre existing conditions!!
Dan, tone it down a bit, you're always speaking in a mild to full shout, and you interrupt far to often. I think you need to downshift the ego and not inject your every impulse to speak into every opportunity to speak. Try to chill a bit, though I realize that would go against your personality type, but it would help us listening to not so often want someone to put a sock in your mouth so we can listen to your guests answer without constant input interruptions from you.
Just saying...
obama's legacy therfor he made luigi pull the trigger.Luigi obana's victim
I’m alive today ONLY because I was able to get ins via the ACA!! If they try and take ins away from myself & millions of other Americans i promise we wont be goin down & or out alone!!!
He’s a hero compared to the health care industry expert
