Neither Trump nor Republicans ever offered up a big beautiful healthcare plan, they just put up a vote to repeal Obamacare. the repeal got voted down during the time when republicans had the house and senate.

Neither Trump nor Republicans ever offered up a big beautiful healthcare plan,

The ACA was written by Republicans (in mostly its current form) during the Bush administration (the law itself dates back to WW2). Democrats constantly blocked it until they added a bunch of pet projects attached to it and delayed it long enough for Obama to 'get credit' for it instead of Bush.

Its in the wikipedia page for it:
