2. This won't change their minds

I've seen that claim frequently here and I have no idea where it comes from. My aunt is a retired life long nurse and was very upset when McCain cast that vote. She is pro Trump and therefore all in for anything he wants. One family member will lose coverage if the Affordable Care Act is repealed. My aunt doesn't care about that at all, not in comparison.

That is going to attach up and down the line. If people were stupid and stubborn enough to vote for Trump/Republicans in the first place they aren't going to use their own health care changes as rationale to detour. Heck, they've already proven they prefer fake news and lies over Democrats. Trump will offer countless additional lies and fake news, while championing the Graham bill as great legislation.
