Will he be ready the next time where the whim of GOP co. is, say, profitising Social security?
Or the time after that when the whim may be elimination of the minimum wage?
Or the time after that where GOP co. demands _____________? Just pick something on their wish list.

This is not about the ACA. The republican menace will continue to take hostages until they are stopped.
Weather defiance or surrender, it will be painful.
