No economic growth will happen.

Even if it did it could not justify the millions that will lose their health insurance.

Per his nephew, Fred Trump, Donald Trump said disabled people should just die.

Not sure, if Donald Trump denied it.

But his actions since his second term, cancelling medical research and putting quacks in charge of healthcare, makes Fred's story believable.
