give the orange man and his party everything they want......they win. This isn't a "degree" kind of thing.

The ACA subsidies will be gone (yeah, they'll get to vote on it....but the result is a foregone conclusion, especially since the same merry band of turncoats will vote against it along with every last Republican. Heck, that little band might just join Republicans in fully removing the ACA. It isn't even particularly unlikely anymore.

The one horrible silver lining of having all dickhead Republican reps is that they can't break my heart, because I never thought they were decent humans in any way.
