But half of Trump's votes came from white voters without college degrees. And those less-affluent voters stand to lose in multiple ways if Congress rolls back Obamacare in favor of the House GOP plan.

An Urban Institute study found that Obamacare reduced the number of noncollege whites without insurance by 6.2 million between 2010 and 2015, a drop of 39 percent. In 20 of the 30 states that Trump won, more noncollege whites gained coverage than any other group.


Most of these folks don't know anything about the law that gave them insurance...they live in a world of cynical soundbites...fox, am radio, congress, senate...and now the white house, where the man in charge knows even less than they do about health care, but who gladly exploits their ignorance by perpetuating the myths they have bought into to, to win election. It's a con job extraordinaire.
