The former president has joined forces with his deputy, President Joe Biden, for an engaging healthcare-themed video that also \u200dslyly pokes fun at former President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Is Obamacare still a thing?&#8221; \u200bBiden asks in the video. &#8220;Is \u2063it still a thing?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yes,&#8221; Obama responds. &#8220;Obamacare, the Affordable Care Act, Bidencare, whatever you \u2064call it, yes, it is still a thing. The other side has been trying to repeal\u200b it every year \u2062since\u2064 it\u200b has existed, but we&#8217;ll keep\u2064 fighting to protect it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>While Obama only mentions &#8220;the other side,&#8221; this clip comes after Trump&#8217;s recent musings on social media about replacing Obamacare,\u200d which has been a \u2064Republican\u2063 rallying cry\u2064 since its \u200benactment in\u2064 2010.<\/p>\n<p>Democrats have seized on Trump&#8217;s remarks, accusing him of wanting to &#8220;rip away health insurance for tens \u2063of millions of Americans.&#8221; The new video continues to emphasize this message, even \u2063as Trump claims he wants to create \u200bbetter health\u2062 coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Open enrollment for insurance under\u200b the Affordable Care Act began on November \u200d1, with Friday\u2062 being the\u2064 last day to make changes\u2064 for \u2062coverage \u200dstarting next year. However, it is likely that Biden and possibly Obama will continue discussing the law on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/central-african-republic-votes-under-threat-of-violence\/\" title=\"Central African Republic votes under threat of violence\">campaign trail<\/a> in \u20642024.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Just go to healthcare.gov to learn more,&#8221; Obama concludes in the video.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;s still a BFD,&#8221; Biden\u2063 adds.<\/p>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> Why is the \u2064timing of the video significant in relation to the Affordable Care Act and the upcoming campaign trail\u2063 in 2024?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  \u200dBarack Obama\u200c and Joe \u2064Biden \u200chave teamed up once again, this time in a healthcare-themed video that cleverly takes a dig at former President \u200bDonald Trump. While Obama may have left office, his influence and knack for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/facebook-sued-over-alleged-responsibility-in-killing-of-federal-officer\/\" title=\"Facebook Sued Over Alleged Responsibility In Killing Of Federal Officer\">engaging content<\/a> have not diminished.<\/p>\n<p>The\u200c video begins with Biden\u200c questioning, &#8220;Is \u200dObamacare still a thing?&#8221; It&#8217;s a playful remark that slyly references Trump&#8217;s recent musings on social media about replacing the Affordable Care Act.\u200b Obama, ever poised and composed, responds, \u2062&#8221;Yes, Obamacare, the Affordable\u2064 Care\u200c Act, Bidencare, whatever you call it, yes, it\u2063 is still\u200b a thing. The other side has been \u200ctrying to \u200brepeal it every year since its existence, but we&#8217;ll keep fighting to\u2062 protect it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By mentioning\u200b &#8220;the\u2062 other side,&#8221; Obama carefully alludes to the\u2063 Republican party&#8217;s persistent rallying cry against Obamacare. Democrats \u2063swiftly seized on Trump&#8217;s remarks, accusing him of wanting \u200dto \u200dstrip away health insurance from millions of Americans. The video further \u2062underscores this message, even as\u200b Trump claims to want better healthcare coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The timing of the video is significant. Open enrollment for insurance under the Affordable Care Act began on November 1, and the last day to make changes for coverage starting next\u2064 year \u2063was Friday. This subtler jab at Trump&#8217;s stance on healthcare\u200c amplifies the urgency for Americans to consider their options under the Act, \u2063making it all \u200bthe more crucial for Biden and, possibly, Obama to continue discussing the law on\u200b the campaign trail in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>As the video draws to a close, Obama directs viewers to healthcare.gov for\u200c more information, reminding them that \u200bhealthcare remains a significant issue. Biden, ever\u2063 the advocate, chimes in, &#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;s still a BFD\u2064 (Big\u200d F***ing Deal).&#8221; It is a statement that resonates with the authenticity and fervor that Biden has consistently brought to his policy matters,\u2062 particularly in the realm of healthcare.<\/p>\n<p>Barack Obama&#8217;s presence may be fleeting, but his impact endures. Through this video, he and Biden use their platform to remind Americans of the importance of\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of President Trump\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">affordable healthcare<\/a> and \u2063to highlight the ongoing fight to protect and improve it. It is a subtle dig at \u2063Trump that underscores their\u200c commitment to the American people\u200b and\u2062 their \u200cdetermination to uphold the tenets of healthcare reform.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Barack Obama reunites with President Joe Biden in a healthcare-themed video, subtly mocking ex-President Donald Trump.
