If Republicans manage to "amend" or rescind the ACA,

can the Democrats stop them from anything else?

If the R's get the repeal, they'll certainly get the tax cut later.

Question 2: If the Democrats get a supermajority in the Senate and a majority in the House in the future, will they repair the damage by raising the taxes again and returning the ACA?
