>>So, what is your bunch going to do about it? They're running the show now. Just keep crippling the extant system until it crashes and then what? Open the door for the other bunch to jump in and save the day with a single-payer system? And go back to being the opposition party?

>>You and I have been talking about this for a decade. We're now on the down slope to the finish line, no?

You and I both know that single payer is problematic. I do not know what will be proposed but Democrats have made clear that they will not support a less government centric program. So, whatever replaces it will depend on the power Trump has at the time of final collapse.

This is what he said he would do. He couldn’t get Dems to act, so he’ll wait on it to die then he will have the power to build a real system.

I would expect less government if he has the political power, no mandate, but guaranteed issue with wider cost variability and some subsidy. The Medicaid expansion is a disaster and needs to go. I don’t know what will replace it.
