I want to start this blog by pointing out that I *really* don't want them to repeal the ACA. I will be a disaster for many American's especially the working poor.
Now that I've got that bit of civility out of the way, I'm going to unleash the daemon that hides over behind my shoulder.
In my darkest moments, I really do want them to repeal the ACA.
A large number of people voted for Trump because he campaigned on repealing Obamacare and replacing it with something "better".
I think we should let them have the "better" version of Obamacare.
There's a bit of nihilistic glee thinking about all those Trump supporters opening that envelope from either their Insurance company or Medicaid informing them that their coverage has been dropped or reduced or that the subsidy's been removed and they'll now owe more per month.
Let them buy policies that essentially cover nothing and just wait for the pin to be pulled on that grenade.
That moment when they suddenly realize in one crushing moment that a narcissistic billionaire doesn't have their best interests in mind. I want them to have to pick up that shit sandwich and starting chewing.
Moreover, I want them to go to social media and start freaking out. It'll be interesting to see what it looks like when suddenly 10's of thousands of people start screaming about losing their coverage and we're subjected to a cavalcade of sob stories about how mama would be here today if they hadn't cut her coverage.
We all know that if there's one thing Trump does is, it's that he watches social media and TV obsessively.
Who will he blame?
In any case someone's going to be eating shit over this.
