Undermining Obamacare Would Cause A Lot Of Pain In Trump Territory
Sabotage could hit rural areas and the South hardest.
If President Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress want to undermine the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, they’re going to be wreaking havoc in the places their voters call home.
In counties with just one or two insurers offering coverage through the law’s new exchanges, 54.5 percent of residents voted for Trump in 2016, while just 40.8 percent voted for Clinton, according to a Huffington Post analysis of election returns and data from the Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation.
Overall, among the roughly 62 million voters in those counties, 34 million cast ballots for Trump while 25 million went for Clinton.

Ironically, I suspect most Democrats would have similar feelings against collective punishment, though based on the actions of trump and the republicans, there whole approach has been collective punishment
