They didn't!
As you already know, the Supreme Court
ruled in favor of Obamacare this morning, a decision that Republicans are secretly glad for because it means Democrats can't pillory them on the campaign trail for taking health insurance away from millions of Americans. But in public, GOPers gotta GOP, and here's what the GOPiest are GOPing about:
But LOL:
Roberts is a Republican, too!
Oh please, bro:
That's the best you got? At least Scalia's made Roberts chuckle.
Just repeal? No replace? Oh, right, as if you ever gave a damn about replacing the ACA.
Now here's the RNC, pivoting instantly to attack ... Hillary Clinton:
"Today’s ruling makes it clear that if we want to fix our broken healthcare system, then we will need to elect a Republican president with proven ideas and real solutions that will help American families," said Chairman Priebus. "Hillary Clinton supports big government mandates and expanding the government’s reach into our healthcare system, maneuvers that have made our healthcare system worse off. What you will not hear from Democrats today is any information on how to make healthcare more affordable at a time when premiums are getting more expensive."
Your sauce is weak, old man.
Pretty standard fare from your Republican presidential candidates. As heard on MSNBC:
Rick Perry: "Americans cannot look to the courts to undo the damage from Obamacare."
Huckabee: "Judicial tyranny."
Do you know how gross it makes me feel to say that Bill Kristol is actually not wrong?
Yep! That means it's on us to keep the White House and keep Obamacare safe. Enjoy today, my friends. There will be plenty more like this.
