Donald Trump savours 'repeal of Obamacare' after winning House vote

President Donald Trump delayed his first trip home to New York as president to celebrate House passage of legislation undoing much of former President Barack Obama's health law, a top campaign promise and a long-sought Republican goal.

Mr Trump, savouring "an unbelievable victory", joined jubilant Republicans at the White House for a hastily called press conference to exult in the passage of their replacement health care bill, which squeaked by the House 217-213.
