President Trump said Wednesday that he views himself as an “arbitrator” in the GOP’s internal debate over how lawmakers should repeal and replace Obamacare, telling Fox News’ Tucker Carlson that he doesn’t expect to see a single Democrat support the Republican reform plan.
“I’m, in a little way, I’m an arbitrator. We have the conservatives, we have the more liberal side of the Republican Party, we have the left, we have the right within the Republicans themselves, we got a lot of fighting going on,” Trump said in an interview with Carlson. “We have no Democrats. Again, no matter what we do, we’re never going to get a Democrat. Maybe we’ll get one along the way.”
