I fully understand you disagree with me --- that ACA subsidies are a killer good issue for Dems.
As offered before, I would have had all the Dems vote "present" instead of invoking a filibuster. Give the regime it's head, and see how the base likes it.
But as a spectator of politics ---man ---i've never seen a gifthorse looked in the mouth like this before
The situation was certainly mishandled. The number of people the Dems were "fighting for" was small, compared to the amount of collateral damage: Federal workers unpaid, SNAP benefits suspended, people's travel plans thrown in the dumpster.
My strategy would be let the regime shred the ACA entirely. People have forgotten what it was like before the ACA. Let insurance companies run wild. The GOP will wear the consequences. Then, in 28, the Dems bring a real national health plan.
