Why this renewed assault? “Obamacare Sucks!!!” declared the former and possibly future president. For those offended by the language, these are Trump’s own words, and I think I owe it to my readers to report what he actually said, not sanitize it. Trump also promised to provide “MUCH BETTER HEALTHCARE” without offering any specifics.
So let’s discuss substance here. Does Obamacare, in fact, suck? And can we believe Trump’s promise to offer something much better?
They aren’t trying to replace. They’re trying to kill. If it has Obama’s name anywhere near it (or anything Democrats do), they want it to die. Including Obama himself.
Just like Social Security, they were worried about having the problem of a good example of yet another government service that people like. It doesn’t matter if it is overwhelmingly popular, they want to kill it.
