Version 0 of 14.

A vote on President Donald Trump's new health care bill in the House of Representatives, scheduled for Thursday, has been delayed.

The postponement is a setback for the president who had insisted he would win the numbers on Thursday to pass.

His key American Healthcare Act is intended to replace parts of the Obamacare health-insurance reforms.

Repealing and replacing Obamacare was a major plank of Donald Trump's election campaign.
