Summary: Donald Trump claims he never wanted to end the Affordable Care Act, but his previous statements and actions suggest otherwise. Despite his promises to replace the law with a better option, Trump’s Republican proposals would have weakened or eliminated its coverage rules and reduced government spending. Republicans may pursue a more piecemeal approach to weakening the law, but it could still alarm a majority of Americans.

      I’m all for it. Faux “strong-man” types can’t stand ridicule, so consider it a form of protest. You can take his threat to democracy seriously while still acknowledging he’s a joke of a person.

      The problem is focusing on danger implies strength. They want the guy that’s dangerous to their enemies. Mocking him erodes some of that power.
