    Well given that the SCOTUS didn't rule it as illegal, it is pretty safe to assume it is anything other than an illegal act

    In the middle of a pandemic? If you were going to do that it would be good idea to have a replacement ready

    Of course Biden is running on restoring Obamacare, and he don't have to do anything regarding hating Trump, Trump does enough himself to keep that emotion flowing

    Really? You really want to start ping ponging verbal errors made by both candidates? Did you really thing Trump's limited vocabulary made him invulnerable to gaffes? We could start with Trump's understanding of "hustory" as his comment that Canada burned down the White House

    Roberts ruling, scolded by the right, was the very provision that the GOP used to eliminate most of the ACA, he didn't rule against conservatism, but rather labeling Obamacare a tax giving them a legislative means to accomplish what they were after, now if it weren't for John McCain

    Nothing to do with that

    The question is “what are they going to replace it with”?

    Problem is that is correct. Where do you think the British soldiers came from?

    Roberts will again protect the first Black President. So the replacement will not matter. If the supreme court agrees with Trump they will have time to make a replacement. Trump probably already has a plan in mind

    Oh! Please DO go there!
    I have a whole slew of memes detailing Trumps gaffes from mistaking 7/11 for 9/11 To the idiocy of nuking a hurricane to building the wall in Colorado to taking over the airports during the revolutionary war to thinking his father was born in Germany to the suggestion about injecting disinfectant to hi s latest when he admitted he did not know what the 19 stood for in COVID 19

    So now Canadians burned down the White House? Does that mean Jackson defeated Canadians at New Orleans? That it wasn't the British firing on Fort McHenry but really the Canadians? Must be the Canadians signed the Treaty of Ghent and not the British, who knew

    Right, he even said he has a plan in mind, "Trumpcare," going to be the "greatest ever," every American is going to have "great coverage" and save "more money than the ever have" for health care

    Problem is, no one has ever seen it, it is kinda like that "thirty foot high concrete reinforced wall" that Trump was building

    Not the question

    the question remains

    “What are they going to replace it with?”

    Trump has had more than three years To come up with a replacement and there is nothing on offer. This is not about black or white this is about what is visible to the silent majority - you know that group that Trump wants to actually vote for him? Well they are not going to see this as anything other than Trump taking away a safety net during a pandemic

    Well, Real Clear Politics is a conservative site, and the poll numbers they report come from averages including conservative sites as the Razzy, WSJ, Fox, and the Economist

    It's unbelievable isn't it? How anyone could be that deplorable. What's even more unbelievable is that that disgusting character still attracts even 10% of the voters.
    It speaks very poorly of Americans that they would ever consider trump for a second term.
    Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
    We shall see in November if Americans can still cut the mustard. Given the self-absorbed spectacles of idiots partying all over the country, I don't have much hope.
    I honestly think that the US will have to implode and fall into misery or horror before they wake up enough to take responsibility and grow up.

    Weren't political polls I cited, rather specified polls on a particular public policy

    And you can still try again
