In articles like this one, Fact-checking White House Criticism of CBO health care analysis, the Republicans are saying the CBO overestimated Obamacare by 8 million enrollees.
Doesn’t this argue then that the CBO would also overestimate how many would be covered with Trumpcare?
For example, if CBO says Trumpcare will cover 7 million people (a decrease of 15 million from Obamacare) wouldn’t by Republican logic mean that 7 million is also an overestimate? Maybe it will be only 4 million for a net loss of 18 million?
Or are the estimates by CBO only off in the direction Republicans desire it to go?
