Dems need to say this loud and clear!:THE GOP IS COLLAPSING OBAMACARE ON PURPOSE SO THEY CAN [View all]

GET SUPPORT TO REPEAL IT. They don't care about the healthcare of citizens. They just want, and Trump especially wants, to repeal anything and everything Obama achieved.

This should be the talking point on every TV show every radio show where a Gem appears as a guest. We have to fight them on their level. Their talking point is that Obamacare is collapsing. We need to make it know that Obamacare is working in many places and where it is not, it is because the GOP is withholding the funds necessary to make it fail.

Our message should be that we want to CORRECT the problems with the exchanges and we want to put forth a PUBLIC OPTION like Medicare for those who could qualify.
DO NOT ALLOW THEM AND THE MEDIA TO FRAME OUR MESSAGE AND INSIST ON MORE COVERAGE FOR OUR SPOKESPEOPLE!
