You’re right that it’s not a 50-50 deal here. It’s more like 90-10 in Trump’s favor. Giving states the authority to waive ObamaCare coverage rules is huge.
I’m willing to be proven wrong here but it seems to me that you’re paying billions of dollars to insurance companies regardless if people decide to wave Obamacare rules. This is still pure Obamacare and now it’s funded and the leverage is gone. If they plan on scrapping it by July why in the world would they need to do this for 2 years? This s a scam and Trump has been tricked unless he’s really FOR Obamacare.
Also, in 2 years people are going to be that much more accustomed to this giveaway and there is NO WAY they’ll get rid of it. Period. Bannon is right, primary everyone and let the chips fall where they may. This is hardly a winning bunch.
