20. Obamacare has gotten more popular since Obama left office

May 2017

a lot of people like the patient protections and coverage they've been getting and know someone who has benefitted. They just don't like the Obama part. A lot of Trumpsters had lost their jobs but were able to get insurance through the ACA, especially if this happened later in life before they qualify for Medicare, or if someone in their family has pre-existing conditions. The success stories need to keep coming and gain some media coverage.

The GOP should just make some superficial edits, rename it Trumpcare, and call it a win.
