How difficult would it be for Republicans to repeal Obamacare for good? [View all]
If the leading Republican candidates agree on one thing, it’s doing away with Obamacare.
“The one thing we have to do is repeal and replace Obamacare,” Donald Trump has written on his campaign website, while Marco Rubio has outlined his plan to “Repeal Obamacare” and “replace it with a 21st century, market-driven alternative.” Likewise, Senator Ted Cruz emphatically declared during the February 25 GOP debate that “As president, I will repeal every word of Obamacare.”
Is this the bombastic rhetoric of candidates trying to fire up their base? Or would Republicans actually be able to repeal Obamacare under a Republican president?
In short: yes, they could. But it wouldn’t be easy.
