The ACA was not perfect, and there were problems with the tax that came with it and the affordability for certain income brackets. But repealing it will put us in the wrong direction; if the ACA gets repealed next year then the hopes for one day instituting a single-payer system are virtually gone. If Hillary had won, I know the ACA would have stayed, and probably been improved upon.
But yeah, the environmental consequences of his presidency will be sad. He wants to put a climate change denier in charge of the EPA, as means of slowly degrading the EPA until he can just abolish it. Disgusting.
He said, his words "I am going to replace it with something terrific" That's good enough for me. LOL
Actually he was supposed to repeal ACA on the first day but has not mentioned it yet. Those 5 I mentioned are after he won the election for his first 100 days. Everyone is scared but I am hoping he changes a bit when he is in office and realizes being Pres is harder than he thought so he might calm down a bit.
