Obamacare should be rendered unconstitutional because Congress ended the tax penalty for not having health insurance in 2017, the Trump administration said in its brief to an appeals court.

While all eyes were on Attorney General William Barr on Wednesday, the Trump administration quietly dealt a huge blow to the Affordable Care Act , also known as Obamacare.

The entirety of the law should be rendered unconstitutional because Congress ended the tax penalty for not having health insurance in 2017, the administration said. Democratic attorneys general, with a team led by California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, and the U.S. House of Representatives appealed O’Connor’s ruling."Our legal coalition will vigorously defend the law and the Americans President Trump has abandoned," said Becerra in a statement Wednesday.

And while about 75 percent of the president’s base has an unfavorable view of Obamacare, the majority of Republicans do enjoy some elements of the ACA. Nearly 60 percent of Republicans support protections for those with pre-existing conditions, about 70 percent support ending co-payments for preventive services, and two-thirds support keeping adults under 26 on their parents’ insurance plans.

I hope they do. End ACA. It will be appealed to the US Supreme Court for a 2020 ruling allowing Dems to run on health care.
