How did healthcare become the hot button issue this election?

Seeing it over and over suddenly in the last few days. Will admit it wasn’t on my radar.

i really don't think it was and this is just a media talking point they all decided was a real issue, so they kept reporting it

Same. Totally blindsided by that.

Well, Trump did say that he would repeal Obamacare on Day 1 of his Administration.
He lied, of course.

It may have been an issue on the ground but I haven't heard shite about it elsewhere.
No solution for Obamacare was always a weak point for incumbents though.

Free healthcare is a universal right.
It's free...why would you vote against something that's free?

Many Americans believe healthcare is a right. Many Americans also believe insurance companies should be compelled to cover pre-existing conditions, which means what they want can no longer objectively be called insurance. In short, many Americans are leeches who want to be coddled by the nanny state.

Not sure how running against a healthcare system THEY forced through helps the Democrats

Was it not a hot button issue for Trump when he ran? And he failed miserably and people haven't forgot. Not that hard to figure out

Repealing or otherwise undermining the ACA actually hurts people. I’m frankly surprised this isn’t a bigger issue.

So people are mad that Obamacare wasn’t repealed, so their reaction is to vote for Democrats who want to keep Obamacare? I don’t understand.

The politics of this really flipped this past cycle. Obamacare has become popular and it's starting to take on the politics of Medicare/SS.

It wasn’t an issue. It was a media creation designed to drum/scare up the masses.

The ACA is awful. High deductibles, high premiums and "subsidies" that are imputed as income at the end of every tax year. For the average working American not on group coverage through his or her employer, it's a complete ripoff.
