President Donald Trump is describing the fight over the proposed Republican health care law as “a big fat beautiful negotiation.”
Trump is holding the first cabinet meeting of his administration—a meeting he says he hopes will be “historic.”
He tells his cabinet members and reporters that he’s working to repeal former President Barack Obama’s signature health care law despite it “getting a false rep that maybe it’s OK” when “it’s failed” and “imploding.”
Trump also says he’s been receiving updates about the blizzard that’s expected to hit the northeast Monday evening.
He says that “everybody in government is fully prepared and ready” for the storm.
And he’s urging Americans to listen to local officials and take their advice about what to do.
