Here is another question?

Given last night's vote, which I am happy it went down in flames! You have to wonder if Trump and the GOP wanted this vote to fail, so that they could the ACA collapse? Trump has stated this several times and I don't trust any of them. He will start to divert money for the states and leave the states will the bill! Trump knows how to bankrupt his business and this is his big chance to bankrupt the ACA! He is not worried about his base just yet, but in the end, his base will believe anything he says or does?

My thought is he wanted a Win, and he wanted to rub Obama's crowning legacy into the dirt. OnDoutside Jul 2017 #3

He hard core Trumplodytes are among those who don't understand that Obamacare is ACA—their racism & bent ideology lead them to hate former while they've come to depend on latter. Even heard one pol from KY claim it was a disaster there tho that state's version, which strips Obama's name, was considered one of most effective.

goes after Trump for openly trying to undercut a legal law that is on the books. This law helps the very same people he claims to represent. He wants to undercut that, he wants it to fail. The republicans want it to fail. Why have they not tried to fix whatever it is that they think is wrong? Why are they so hell bent on just destroying things and why do their voters allow them to do it? I don't get it. Is hating black,latino/a, asian, LGBT,and whatever else worth all of this? Is it? I mean really is this all worth it? ugh
