President Donald Trump announced the discount cards were coming as part of a Sep. 24 speech calling attention to his unfinished health care agenda. As he described the idea, it seemed like the cards were about to go in the mail…

‘Nobody has seen this before,’ Trump said at the time. ‘These cards are incredible. The cards will be mailed out in coming weeks.’”
