I am still amazed at how thick Republicans are that Democratic voters really, *really* do not like the Clintons.
They're establishment-popular, not actually popular.
"You come for Trump we'll come for Clinton!" they say, ignoring the constant stream of memes and jeering over Bill.

Trump is talking about repealing the ACA, stealing insurance from tens of millions, bringing back pre-existing conditions, and killing the filibuster to do it (since there better not be a single Dem vote for this misery). And the press needs to explain that because the plan is to elide all that.
Obamacare could collapse under Trump’s new plan, policy experts say
Republicans say giving health care subsidies as cash to consumers would give Americans more control over their coverage. Critics say it could severely undermine the ACA marketplaces.
