pump your breaks fella... saying I don't have a lot of sympathy is a lot different that "they can pretty much go to hell"...

First of all, the promise to repeal and replace Obamacare was front and center of the Trump campaign...This should not have been a surprise to anyone

Secondly, it was a well known fact that one of Paul Ryan's and the GOP's major aspirations was to eliminate ACA if they got back into power.

Finally, only 653, 000 of Iowa voters voted for the Democrats... The 3.1 million number doesn't really matter if they didn't vote... Those 1.657 million people could have very well voted in the same proportions as those that did actually go out and vote.

didn't realize what I thought made any difference to what is happening down there....
