They spent 8 years repeating over and over that their priority was destroying the ACA, and they won a majority in both houses.

We all know that most people who voted for them either don't understand what they're actually voting for, or don't understand it'll effect them too, but let's not get it twisted. GOP voters are getting exactly what they voted for, and everyone is suffering as a result.
