If this is dumb question please excuse me. Its pretty clear why Trump is Hell bent on trashing the ACA. It has Obama's scent on it so must destroyed. Pure jealous spite, something he has in endless supply.
But what beef does the GOP overall have with it? Basically the same thing, they don't want to give the Democratic party a 'win' or a last positive change, petty enough to seethe this long over Obam getting something passed their road block or has their been concocted alleged reason it must be done away with as fast as possible?

(11,653 posts)when he yapped that stupid quote about being from the government and here to help.
ACA is proof positive that government can indeed be useful at the ground level, as well as give people another SSDI/MEDICARE-type entitlement that, once the majority get used to having it, the GOP WILL NEVER be allowed to strip from them. So they have to do whatever they can to get rid of it BEFORE we do get used to having it.
The rascism is just an added bonus for them.
