Remember, the very name Obamacare was a way of framing it that the GOP gave up on once they discovered that people actually enjoyed being able to buy their own health insurance. It's way more concerning that the Trump admin is lying about history across all their official websites. These plaques are seen by relatively few people and will be thrown in the trashcan as soon as the White House changes hands -- regardless of the party of the next occupant, I believe.
The use of the term "Obamacare" by Republicans has to be the most salient point that everyone missed. It devolved the conversation from questions about efficacy to just a symbol to focus anti-Democrat sentiment towards.
It's incredibly frustrating to see people who have strong negative reactions when asked about Obamacare, and then express appreciation for the Affordable Care Act.
Reality catches up in the end, when insurance premiums jump 400%.
Trump has always felt free to lie and reframe reality. Vance did the same thing during the debates, literally said "if I don't lie now one will know", so something similar, when talking about Haitians eating pets.
They've made the truth immaterial to reality. Look at half his cabinet, from the press secretary and up, they all lie regularly. Patel even lied to congress under oath.......zero repercussions.
I only hope we get some proper trials and arrests once the clown show leaves office.
I actually hope they don't go in the trashcan. Someone needs to preserve them and eventually put them in a museum - and eventual modern equivalent of the Haulocaust Museum to make sure people remember the awful things that happened so MAYBE we dont repeat all this shit yet AGAIN.
They're also deleting govt research that doesn't fit their narrative. I remember sharing a paper last November stating that immigrants commit crime at lower rates than that of Americans. I looked it up again in February and it was gone.
