. . . and to portray this 4% fix as the dismantling of the ACA is so absurd that the criticisms just look like another excuse to spout off about the President.

Ezra has some backtracking to do. He's done little more over the past few days than to hype the republican reactions as significant or substantial threats to the legislation. Looks like wishful thinking, on his part, to gin up a reportable controversy.

I can agree with him about Medicaid . . .
