There is a good possibility that the entire ACA threat is just another distraction to deflect attention from the substance of the Mueller report.
.
There is nothing to prevent Trump from reversing course while blaming ‘the Democrats’. His Disciples will believe anything he tells them. He will just claim that he never meant for people to lose health care — just like all Republicans claim that they are trying to protect people with preexisting conditions while simultaneously sabotaging them.
.
More people have seen the Mueller report than have seen the Republican health care plan.
Of course we all know Trump does not actually care at all, it is just time to ramp up some other talking point to keep the sheep mad and at attention. What a sleazy bastard.
I want competitive capitalism back that kind that benefitted the consumer, not the monopolies/oligopolies — that want zero regulation and outrageous profits — that our big money politicians favor today.
Could it be that you don’t get people that care about the cost/access to healthcare when you’re represented by mostly multi-millionaires?
Our health care “crisis” is because of illegal immigration. Once we close the southern border, everyone will get well, crime will drop to zero, unemployment will become non-existent, and every American will enjoy an above-average income. See how easy it is, if only you people would do what you’re told?

This image grossly exaggerates the substance of “Trumpcare”. To date, everyone has lost count of the number of times Trump has declared that once in office he will repeal Obamacare and replace it with a program which will be cheaper and better and cover everybody.
On the other hand, it is easy to keep track of how many times he’s mentioned even a single detail of his own “cheaper and better” plan.
All he cares about is revenge on Obama. He doesn’t care at all about what “Obamacare” (Romneycare modified) does or doesn’t do. He will say anything that gets a response — and he has said as much; that’s why he keeps repeating "build the wall, because it got a great response at one of his rallies.
So if it says “Obama,” he will destroy it. He has no idea whatsoever as to what to replace it with, because it doesn’t affect him anyway. He’ll just SAY, as he has said all along, that they’ll do something “better,” even though the GOP is clearly incapable of doing so.
Its not exactly “revenge” it is just that Obama is black and therefor inferior to all of those white rich people. And like the rulers of old Trump and the entire Aryan-Confederate Republican Party want Obama and his works expunged from the record.
What do you expect from a political party that backs Trump, the NRA, Russian interference in our elections and in our White House, torture, caging children, anti-health care, anti infrastructure, greed, xenophobia, white supremacist racism, anti-science, pollution, and embraces guns over their own children.

Trumpcare — doing for health care what Trump “University” did for higher education.

C’mon, what’s the big deal (other than for corporations, HMO’s, etc)? It’s not like the Cheeto sees it as a matter of life and death now, is it?

Would have been even funnier had Trumpcare been depicted as a tube of Tic tacs. ( Remember the Access Hollywood tape )

Hey, I just read, where a guy has wrote a book and he calls trump “the world’s biggest golf cheat”…sounds about right. What else would we expect?
