Just keep the damn thing and let it collapse

Healthcare reform was a lose- lose proposition for the Republicans. Nothing short of single payor would have even remotely had bi-partisan support. Let it collapse and the Dems still OWN IT.

Amen
Thankfully we have a President that won't let the Dims drive the narrative when it collapses.

Let our healthcare system collapse? Bold strategy for the party that controls all of government

You think big Pharma and big Insurance will let that happen? They're the ones pulling the strings here.

As much as I would like for that to happen, the GOP would never live that down.
"You had the house, senate and POTUS and now you're leaving all those millenial basement dwellers out in the cold you heartless fricks! ACA was a work in progress and the GOP stopped all work".

You need to lay off the Fox News.
No way anyone outside of the Trump base will put this on the Dems when the Repubs have both houses, the presidency and fail to do anything to help alleviate the problem.
They didn't even need a single Dem vote to pass this bill, but failed to do it after years of campaign promises to do so.
No way independents give Trump and the Repubs a pass

That's bullshite. If they repeal it, that action will be enormously popular among their constituents. The only lose/lose proposition is to do nothing when a straight repeal will do.

No, full repeal now!

The GOP is laughably inept. Grow a set, and do something, before we all go broke.
Newsflash, the people that will hate you for the repeal hate you already.

Can't just let it go. Campaign promises. Many of their constituencies are going to hold them accountable for replacing Obamacare.

Second newsflash, the guys that now "have insurance" through their employer can't actually use it because a $7,500 deductible and 80/20 to $11,000 is the same as no insurance to them.

The 2-year sunset plan isn't a bad approach.
Obamacare won't be pulled cold turkey, so that avoids catostophic effects.
At the same time its end date is put on the clock, and when you put something on a calendar, you tend to get action.

Letting healthcare collapse while you have the power to change it is not something for which constituents will reward you
#1 campaign promise was repeal/replace dude

Obamacare is not healthcare. It is government subsidized health insurance.

drive the narrative when it collapses.
When a party controls all three branches of government and something collapses, the narrative is simple: YOU own the collapse.

Or perhaps keep the damn thing and make necessary adjustments to the law to help and provide value to the American people. How about that?

I love Trumpkins and the righties on here...you just post crap you pull right out of your asses without using the brain located there to consider things before you post.
