Trump is going to cater to the rich. And not anyone else. He doesn't even like the common person, he just uses them.

Trump caught on video telling rich friends at the 21 Club, ‘We’ll get your taxes down — don’t worry about it’
In News by Maggie Serota

On Tuesday night, amid a disastrous White House transition process, President-elect Donald Trump broke with protocol and ditched his protective press pool to hit the 21 Club steakhouse in midtown Manhattan with his family.

The press was caught off guard when Trump spokesperson Hope Hicks signaled that Trump wouldn’t be leaving Trump Tower for the rest of the evening only to have his motorcade slip out around 7:30pm and head off to the restaurant, but NBC News reporter Hallie Jackson was able to snag a reservation and gain access inside the restaurant, where she caught President-elect Trump on video appealing to patrons who represent a sampling of the wealthiest denizens of the five boroughs. “We’ll get your taxes down,” Trump appealed, “don’t worry about it.”

Here's the Trump Transition website on the subject. Nothing about any phaseout.

It is clear to any objective observer that the Affordable Care Act (ACA), which has resulted in rapidly rising premiums and deductibles, narrow networks, and health insurance, has not been a success. A Trump Administration will work with Congress to repeal the ACA and replace it with a solution that includes Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), and returns the historic role in regulating health insurance to the States. The Administration’s goal will be to create a patient-centered healthcare system that promotes choice, quality and affordability with health insurance and healthcare, and take any needed action to alleviate the burdens imposed on American families and businesses by the law.

To maximize choice and create a dynamic market for health insurance, the Administration will work with Congress to enable people to purchase insurance across state lines. The Administration also will work with both Congress and the States to re-establish high-risk pools – a proven approach to ensuring access to health insurance coverage for individuals who have significant medical expenses and who have not maintained continuous coverage.

The Administration recognizes that the problems with the U.S. health care system did not begin with – and will not end with the repeal of – the ACA. With the assistance of Congress and working with the States, as appropriate, the Administration will act to:

Protect individual conscience in healthcareProtect innocent human life from conception to natural death, including the most defenseless and those Americans with disabilitiesAdvance research and development in healthcareReform the Food and Drug Administration, to put greater focus on the need of patients for new and innovative medical productsModernize Medicare, so that it will be ready for the challenges with the coming retirement of the Baby Boom generation – and beyondMaximize flexibility for States in administering Medicaid, to enable States to experiment with innovative methods to deliver healthcare to our low-income citizens
