When Trump was president, Republicans fought to repeal the health insurance program.
Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance claimed Tuesday night — in contradiction of history — that his running mate, former President Donald Trump, “salvaged Obamacare,” the health insurance program that Trump tried to kill.
During the vice presidential debate on CBS against Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, Vance, a senator from Ohio, echoed Trump’s own recent revisionism. But the assertion also served to remind voters that Democrats ultimately won the yearslong political fight over expanding access to health insurance: The Republican ticket no longer wants to repeal the 2010 law.

I liked “we don’t need Obamacare because we have legislation protecting people with preexisting conditions”
Yeah, that would be Obamacare.
Obamacare and the ACA is just the Hannah Montana of Republican healthcare policy. They are running on getting rid of the singer but promising to keep the Miley around. I’m high so I’ll stop now
I like the way your stoned ass thinks lol
…what you do high they do stone sober. With a lawyer in the room to make sure they are on solid ground.
Have you looked at Trump’s lawyers?
I promise you they wouldn’t know solid ground if it suddenly disappeared from below them.
True. But remember Rush Limbaugh and ‘inner city rap fans’ as code for ‘inner city rap fans?’
I know, I chortled at that during the debate. I wanted Walz to jump in that moment and say exactly that.
There was a moment where Vance was hammering the word “choice” about like daycare costs or something and I really wanted Walz to say “so NOW you care about choice?”
