Pres. Trump urges repeal & replacement of health care bill

U.S. President Donald Trump is back to urging Senators that they can repeal the legislation nicknamed "Obamacare" and replace it with much a better, much cheaper health care insurance bill.

Pres. Trump defends voter fraud investigation

U.S. President Donald Trump is defending his commission to investigate possible voter fraud during the 2016 election.

President Trump insists it is critical to protect the integrity of the vote.
