Eric Bolling: If Obamacare is repealed, people will still have emergency rooms

On this Friday’s edition of The Five, co-host Juan Williams wondered about the GOP’s plan for people if Obamacare is repealed.

Speaking to co-host Eric Bolling, Williams asked, “Exactly how do you replace it?”

“What about these 20 million people who got coverage? What about the people who said I like keeping my kid on until 26? What about people with pre-existing conditions?” Williams said. “Oh no, well you can’t take care of them because we have no mandate. Which I know is a big objection of yours. And we don’t have a plan. And so, even President-elect Trump once said, you can’t just put these people out on the street.”

“They’re not on the street,” Bolling replied. “You still have Medicare and Medicaid. So that’s always going to be there. And you have emergency rooms which we had before. Until another plan is floated, that’s acceptable.”
