The ACA became known as Obamacare. The AHCA will be known by me as Trump"care".
Calling the ACA "Obamacare" was a failed attempt to disparage President Obama on a health care plan that Republicans seemed adamant would inevitably fail. Instead, while not perfect, Obamacare became an asset to millions and provided healthcare to many who had been denied such assistance for years. The Obamacare label thus lost much of its stigma amongst the general public and was embraced, even by the President himself.
But it was originally intended to be a badge of shame.
Now, should the AHCA pass both houses and signed into the law by the Madman, I would hereby label it Trump"care".
Not Trumpcare.
Trump"care". With the quotation marks firmly around the "care" portion to clearly denote the sarcasm. Because we all know that Trump himself doesn't give a damn about your healthcare.
