And I will say this, that as far as Im concerned, your premiums, theyre going to start to come down. Were going to get this passed through the Senate. I feel so confident. Your deductibles, when it comes to deductibles, they were so ridiculous that nobody got to use their current plan -- this nonexistent plan that I heard so many wonderful things about over the last three or four days. After that, I mean, its -- I dont think youre going to hear so much. Right now, the insurance companies are fleeing. Its been a catastrophe. And this is a great plan. I actually think it will get even better. And this is, make no mistake, this is a repeal and replace of Obamacare. Make no mistake about it. Make no mistake. (Applause.)
And I think, most importantly, yes, premiums will be coming down. Yes, deductibles will be coming down. But very importantly, its a great plan. And ultimately, thats what its all about.
We knew that wasnt going to work. I predicted it a long time ago. I said, its failing. And now, its obvious that its failing. Its dead. Its essentially dead. If we dont pay lots of ransom money over to the insurance companies it would die immediately.
So what we have is something very, very incredibly well-crafted. Tell you what, there is a lot of talent standing behind me. An unbelievable amount of talent, that I can tell you. I mean it. (Applause.) And coming from a different world and only being a politician for a short period of time -- how am I doing? Am I doing okay? Im President. Hey, Im President. Can you believe it? Right? (Applause.) I dont know, its -- I thought you needed a little bit more time. They always told me, more time. But we didnt.
