No, the ACA was bad, not incremental. This is the cost of Obama doing bad things and no one being honest about it. Progressives can’t tell the difference between good and bad policy. https://t.co/NcTXB1f9Vj

Exactly. I said it at the time and was lampooned for it, but the ACA was designed to kill any forward movement on health care, to entrench the status quo. It was anti-incremental.

Turn out, I was right and we are seeing the results of that now. Obama was a terrible, mendacious president and the world is far worse as a result of his Republican presidency.
