    Here’s the funny thing about Republicans repealing the ACA.

    The Republicans controlled the house and Senate during Obama’s last two years in office. They passed bills fully repealing Obamacare to Obama who, of course, vetoed it.

    This happened something like 80 some odd times. All so that they can stomp their feet and say that they were doing their part.

    Then Commander Cheeto takes office and, again, with a Republican controlled Congress.

    Guess how many bills were sent to repeat Obamacare.

    Nada.

    Goose eggs.

    They all knew how much their constituents loved the benefits of Obamacare but lacked the actual balls to repeal it when they had the chance.

    All the Republicans knew that the orange turd would have signed the bill because Trump was just that fucking stupid he couldn’t see the long game. So they never sent him a bill to repeal.

    It was all posturing.

      Because the ACA WAS their plan. When the Democrats passed the bill, the republicans were snickering to each other. “Oh no, don’t throw me into the briar patch!”
