Summary: Donald Trump claims he never wanted to end the Affordable Care Act, but his previous statements and actions suggest otherwise. Despite his promises to replace the law with a better option, Trump’s Republican proposals would have weakened or eliminated its coverage rules and reduced government spending. Republicans may pursue a more piecemeal approach to weakening the law, but it could still alarm a majority of Americans.

      I’m all for it. Faux “strong-man” types can’t stand ridicule, so consider it a form of protest. You can take his threat to democracy seriously while still acknowledging he’s a joke of a person.

      The problem is focusing on danger implies strength. They want the guy that’s dangerous to their enemies. Mocking him erodes some of that power.

      Yes, but tbf, his followers think non-whites are non human.

      He’s just playing to his base.
