2.1 million is the number of people Odumbo claims have signed up under ACA. He won't give us more details, to avoid embarrassment re. your claim that "it's working". Most of the newbies seem to be enrolling in Medicaid, which has existed for decades. What do we need the ACA for if most of the uninsured can be covered under Medicaid?
The non-partisan CBO estimates the ACA will still leave more people uninsured (30 million+) than it will sign up over the next decade. Is that how you define success? Meanwhile, the 6 million cancellations so far are just the tip of the iceberg. What happens when the employer mandate (delayed by Odumbo) kicks in and tens of millions more lose their coverage or see huge premium hikes? Will you say the ACA is "working" for them? I am doing the math, and I see this playing out as a disaster for millions of voters - and for the Dems who foolishly propagated it.
