White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Friday knocked former President Barack ObamaBarack ObamaTrump notes 'election meddling by Russia' in tweet criticizing Obama Trump slams Obama for doing 'nothing' about Russia before the election OPINION: Dear media, Americans don't care about Obama's legacy MORE for his criticism of the fundamental meanness of the Senate GOPs healthcare plan.

Well, the real meanness is allowing American people to believe that ObamaCare is still alive, Spicer said during an interview with Fox News.

Obama on Thursday blasted the Senate GOP leaderships plan to overhaul his signature healthcare law.

"Simply put, if theres a chance you might get sick, get old, or start a family this bill will do you harm," Obama wrote. "And small tweaks over the course of the next couple weeks, under the guise of making these bills easier to stomach, cannot change the fundamental meanness at the core of this legislation."

The Affordable Care Act remains the law of the land, but President Trump and his allies have argued its dead, citing rising premiums and insurers leaving markets in several states.

ObamaCare is dead it isnt an option, Spicer said. I think we need to face the reality of that. When people want to compare this bill with ObamaCare its an unfair comparison.

The spokesman expressed confidence that the chances are very high the GOP bill will pass and said it would rescue families hurt by ObamaCare.

I dont know how its mean to provide people healthcare and thats what were doing here, he said.
