Wisconsin senator Ron Johnson said Republicans should try again to repeal the Affordable Care Act.

Ron Johnson’s statement about scrapping Affordable Care Act if GOP wins control of Congress.

The Wisconsin senator Ron Johnson said Republicans should try again to repeal the Affordable Care Act if they take back power – then retreated, under fire from the Biden administration.

The ACA has increased in popularity since Biden took office. As of last year, approximately 31 million Americans received healthcare coverage through the ACA. An additional 1.2 million enrolled during a special six-month period during the Covid pandemic.

Ron Johnson is IMO a mentally challenged individual. He has the habit of opening his mouth and letting stuff spew out long BEFORE his mind is in gear.

He thinks it would be a winnable strategy to take away health care from 31 million Americans. And he still believes it can be replaced.

REPLACED WITH WHAT YOU MORON?

They want to go back to the “good old days” when employers and insurance companies had ALL the power and us peons were free to go bankrupt and die. Repugs’ wet dream.
