Think about what the GOP is doing. They are demanding OF THE PRESIDENT that he abandon ACA.

ACA is a law and the President does not make or amend laws. Congress does.

So they are, in effect, blackmailing the Senate and even the rest of the GOP House to cooperate with this do-or-die approach.

There is nothing the GOP can gain from this. Nothing.
