Vice President Pence forcefully defended on Thursday night the Trump administration’s plans to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, saying the law known as Obamacare is a “nightmare” and that the administration is committed to “an orderly transition” to a new health care system. Pence said he and President Trump are committed to giving every American “access to quality, affordable health insurance. . . . We’ll have an orderly transition to a better health-care system that finally puts the American people first,” Pence said.
