will STILL vote for them, even though Republicans bum___ their voters EVERY CHANCE THEY GET.

Remember the last ACA enrollment JUMPED MORE IN RED STATES, than blue.

That's a helluva lot of angry MAGATS.

Most Affordable Care Act Enrollees Are In Red States

dutifully simmered over an open flame.

Repugs named the ACA Obamacare as an intended pejorative. To which Obama laughingly said, 'I'll own it.'

And when some red states found out how much their own cult LOVED it, they named it something else (to take the sting of a Black President out of it, I suppose).

That and 70 plus Repugnicant efforts to repeal the ACA/Obamacare with NADA to offer in its place.

(... a plan which, incidentally, is based upon what was originally THEIR plan.)

Stupid is as stupid does.

in his cobwebby brain, if he's not on the ballot, he doesn't care if he flushes the Repug congression members down the tube. And they're so witless that they continue to stick by him.
