LOL. Obama did NOT follow citizen Trump's advice at all, that is just plain daft but not surprising coming from you and btw he has no problems at home. Supreme Court pick now confirmed.
You know, I find it reprehensible that there is still people like you, who it does not matter that an evil ass dictator, gassed his own people, but not just people, children and babies, it was only the other day you was moaning Trump had no plan and now he had a plan all along and just did not broadcast it, followed his plan and took decisive action fast and you're still whinging, damned if he did nothing, but still damned now he has done something, because the crux of your problem is, that it's still Trump.
You know, even Mr K and Damien are honest enough to admit that what Trump did was welcomed, but oh no, not narrow minded martyh and to some degree, I have to include Hugh also here.

Trump didn't go to Congress.

As pointed out above. Obama did not need to and nor did Trump.

Nothing anecdotal about it and I will keep on saying it, Obamacare is not successful.

They explain the price rises as normal (as I showed earlier for the bush Presidency), and whilst our anecdotal evidence is personal experience, 10 million additional people covered is cold hard fact.

I could not careless if one billion additional people were covered, Obamacare is still not successful. You really think a system that puts profit first before wellbeing, is still good?
And there is nothing 'normal' about big massive rises. I don't think so.
