INSIDER TODAY: The GOP's stupid crusade against Obamacare

. The head of the CDC also said that the US probably has had 10 times as many infections — more than 20 million — than the official numbers say. which would ban chokeholds and create a misconduct database. The bill was named for George Floyd. Democrats blocked a weaker Republican bill in the Senate, and a compromise law is unlikely. Today the House will also vote and approve a bill to make Washington, DC a state. It has zero chance in the Republican Senate.

And it was a magnificent gift to Republicans. It got them off the hook for having to do real healthcare reform — the kind that really would socialize medicine. It made Democrats responsible for all the delays and horrors that still plague American healthcare. And it took the best Democratic campaign message off the table.

But Republicans simply refused to accept the gift. In act after act of nihilistic self-sabotage, Republicans have spent a decade trying to destroy Obamacare In the midst of a pandemic, as tens of millions of Americans lose jobs and health insurance, the Trump administration asked the Supreme Court to annihilate the ACA. The Trump administration is joining a bunch of red states in arguing that the entire law must fall because the individual mandate no longer has any tax penalty attached to it.

Wiping out the law would endanger the insurance of more than 20 million Americans. More importantly, it would abolish protections for people with pre-existing conditions, hurling all of us back down into the living hell where a health problem — a chronic illness, a bout with cancer — makes us uninsurable, and where were one illness from catastrophe and bankruptcy.

Needless to say, Trump offers no replacement for Obamacare. He doesn't have a better idea, because ObamacareTrump and the Republicans have now guaranteed a round of ads attacking them for trying to take away healthcare from millions of Americans during a pandemic. These ads will be extremely, 100% true. —Say what you want about Donald Trump circa 2016: He had a vision.
