I don't know why you would assume what "Trump's base" really wants.

The most current information (2015) I could find indicates that 7% of Americans buy individual health insurance coverage, and 9% have no insurance at all. This adds up to 16% of the population.

These people are the ones who are most badly screwed by ObamaCare, even if we assume that every one of the 9% with no coverage simply cannot afford an individual plan. That's only 16% of the population.

There are more people on Medicaid in this country than there are uninsured and on individual plans combined.

These Republicans in Congress are no fools. That's why they delayed the "Cadillac tax" on union insurance plans. Those union members are a bigger piece of Trump's base than those who are on individual plans.
