Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York is threatening political payback if congressional Republicans and President-elect Donald Trump try to undo President Barack Obamas major legislative achievements.
They will rue the day they repeal Obamas health care law, Senate Democrats leader-in-waiting told The Associated Press in an interview in his office on Friday. Its a political nightmare for them. Theyll be like the dog that caught the bus.
Trump, after meeting with Obama, said hed like to keep popular pieces of the six-year-old law, including the requirement to extend coverage to people with pre-existing conditions and the provision allowing young adults to stay on their parents health plans until age 26.
But Schumer said it was a non-starter to try picking off favored pieces of the Affordable Care Act.

Upchuck Scummer, you miserable piece of shit, ESAD.
I am NOT a commie.
I’ve been a FReeper since 2005, but changed my logon recently, because I am overseas right now. Original login was Cringing Negativism Network. You’ve been here longer (1998), but flinging words like commie around, does not due you justice.
Are you in the medical field? If not, why in the world are you against having coverage for those who don’t have coverage? Read can’t really, because that is what Obamacare does, it offers coverage, to those who cannot get it any other place.
That is what Trump referred to when he said. “Repeal and Replace”. Repeal Obamacare, but keep the coverage option which Obamacare has for those who cannot otherwise obtain insurance. That is something which Obamacare very importantly offers, to people who do not have a coverage option.
If you are in the medical field, you should just back off, and admit your system is broken.
Take your pick.
If you want to buy health care for you neighbor who can't get coverage because of a preexisting condition(why didn't he buy when he was health huh?), knock your self out.
But you forcing your other neighbor to chip in is a disgrace.
Hopefully someone will be kind enough to get you Wealth Of Nations for Christmas this year, and put down your Marx.
Sorry I don’t agree with you.
I have never not had insurance. Ever. I have paid in continuously, always.
But I will lose my insurance in about six months, from the coverage I had for the last 20 years. The IT company I was at, was exporting every single American job they could, and finally reached where I was. It was a very big company, it took a while to get to exactly where I was. Actually I moved in the company a year before I left, but that job was also being sent overseas, I finally just left.
I left on my own, but it was pretty clear the gig was almost up there. Had to switch to Obamacare.
That is a fact.
I am happy that Trump won, maybe we can bring back some jobs to America now. About darned time, someone out there, starts backing American jobs once again.
You don’t mention, whether you are in healthcare.
Are you?
Commies often disagree with free marketers. No surprise there.
OK.
Have a good one.
