Via #Harris spox Sharon Yang:

Mike Johnson is desperately doing clean up after promising there would be "no Obamacare" if Republicans win because he knows it's a huge problem that he was caught saying the quiet part out loud.

Aaron Rupar:

Mike Johnson now claims he didn't say what he said: "They took a clip out of context."

in reply to Laffy

Johnson, from yesterday:

โ€œHealth care reformโ€™s going to be a big part of the agenda..."

โ€œNo Obamacare?โ€ an attendee asked...

โ€œNo Obamacare,โ€ Johnson responded, rolling his eyes. โ€œThe ACA is so deeply ingrained, we need massive reform to make this work, and we got a lot of ideas on how to do that.โ€

It's kinda difficult to take "No Obamacare" out of context. (But that's all they've got, so...)

@CharJTF
As the covid pandemic showed, the GOP let over 1.2 million Americans die of preventable disease.

They vehemently deny concepts like the common good & democracy

Voters want the ACA

Voters want to keep the ACA

Only profiteering GOP megadonors want the ACA gone & don't care how many die as a consequence.

Is it worth 15 years of a life to vote GOP?
