...especially since that wasn't their goal before the ACA was implemented. Trump was talking about removing the restriction on selling health insurance across state lines. When they started asking him about people with pre-existing conditions and such, he started talking about "keeping" things in a law that he was trying to strike down. I still don't think that they will replace it with anything, they just want to get rid of it.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
