There will never be a replacement...

The repubs can't even agree on one. Rand Paul was spewing his own plan and it's so bad that he had a hell of a time defending it on MSNBC.

They'll repeal Obamacare. They can't do it fast enough. If they could delete President Obama from the history books, they would.

No replacement is coming.

Drumpf wants something that's better than Obamacare because he wants the adoration and he wants to be number 1. The repubs will hate it no matter what...because helping average ordinary Americans goes against the grain for them.

I'll say it again, no replacement is coming.

would be some form of universal, single payer coverage - Medicare for everybody. And even if Trump wanted that, which is highly unlikely, the GOP wouldn't touch it.

You can also expect that the Federal Minimum Wage will be abolished among other things.

The Heritage Foundation is running the show. There will never be a ACA replacement period. There was never going to be a Replacement for ACA. If this what I suspect,the Koch Brothers are running this so called POS President from their Corporate HQ. Kansas here we come!!!!!!
