“Requiring a replacement to be part of a “repeal” is a great way to make sure nothing happens at all.”
You’d think by now they would realize this all too well.
On the other hand maybe they do realize it and simply want 0care to fail in full public view (so they can say ‘well, we tried!).
There is probably a point at which the GOP can maximize the democRATs’ culpability as the scapegoats for Obamacare and minimize their own culpability for doing nothing to fix it. I’m not sure when that is, but I hope they realize that.
The Republicans have a history of making things too complicated to do so they can say they tried come election time and not face the consequences for either reneging on their word or going along with Democrats.
