Heartland Signal caught the former Bridgewater hedge fund CEO on a hot mic. An unseen woman is heard praising his “fantastic speech,” perhaps to butter him up and throw him off guard. “I have a big issue with Obamacare,” she continued. “I know President Trump wants to get rid of it. I think it’s making my grandson lazy. He’s just mooching on his parents’ couch so he doesn’t have to go get a job with insurance. Will you do anything to get rid of it?”
McCormick said he wants most to reduce costs “for folks of Obamacare.” He added, “So we gotta reform it.”
The woman pressed him further. “What about this 26 year-old, so they can stay on their parents’ insurance?”
The guy who wants to be senator apparently doesn’t know much about the program he wants to “reform.” He asked, “Is that Obamacare or a result of Obamacare?”
When told that it is, he sounded surprised. “Well, I’m not for that!” he exclaimed. I gotta get my kids working!” He laughed heartily and said, “They’re still on the payroll!”
