The only thing my post proves is that I did not need the insurance, nothing more. There are others however who did benefit from ACA. Of course that would require you to do some research. I know critical thinking is not your thing, but you should give it a try sometime before you post.
Trump hasn't done shit the past three years. The only things he has done is separate kids from their families, lie to the American people and cause almost 200,000 deaths, destroy a booming economy which he inherited NOT create. So yeah Trump has done a lot alright let me tell you!
Keep trying smart one..

since most people have health coverage from their employer, you are indicating you are self-employed. if that is the case then at what point will you need health insurance? are you going to wait until you are old and skip things like regular physicals and checkups until it's too late and you just die where you might have lived otherwise? well that's your choice but i wouldn't call it a very good one.
look at ruthie. she survived cancer 4 times. do you think she would have without health coverage? you know perfectly well she'd have been dead decades ago. she extended her life by at least 20 years by being covered. you can argue all you want about the quality of her life in the last few years, but she had them and from what we know she was able to function. perhaps not well enough to handle the rigors of being a justice but she was not an outright invalid.
so your claim that you don't need insurance means you don't have insurance because you can't afford insurance and you'll just roll the dice on how long you'll live without it. which is your choice but most people would rather have coverage .. like ruthie.
Obama also separated children of illegals. as did prior administrations before Obama. those pictures of kids in cages? those were photos from Obama's administration but they were used to falsely blame Trump, until of course they were found to actually be from Obama's administration then the media stopped using them. not because it made Trump look bad, but because it made Obama look bad.
Biden tried to claim during the Democratic debates that Obama didn't separate children. that of course is wrong, they did. beyond Trump's increased use of this as deterrent for mass waves of illegals trying to come in to the US, overall policy for some time has mandated this and one reason is the safety of the children. to remove them from potential harm by parents suspected of more serious crimes than just illegal entry. another reason why this happened more under Trump is because many people were sending their kids to the border accompanied by adults who were not their parents and thus had no real concern or legal claim for them other than to just drop them off and be done with it. they were paid by the families to do this by the way. otherwise they wouldn't have cared one bit and even still many of these "runners" didn't care anyway.
Biden incorrectly claims Obama administration didn't separate families

Former Vice President
Joe Biden falsely claimed during the third Democratic primary debate Thursday evening that the Obama administration did not separate immigrant families.
“We didn’t lock people up in cages, we didn’t separate families,” Biden said, drawing a distinction between former President Obama’s immigration policies with those of
President Trump.

Joe Biden just said the Obama admin did not “lock kids in cages or separate families.” This is one of the most sickening lies I have ever heard on a Presidential debate stage. Here are dozens of photos of Obama/Biden admin locking kids in cages. SHARE!

The Obama administration did not separate families as a matter of policy, as the Trump administration did as part of its “zero tolerance” border policy in 2018, but separations occurred on a case-by-case basis for parents being prosecuted on more serious charges than illegally crossing the border or in cases when an adult was suspected of not being a child’s parent,
according to CNN.
Children were also placed in cages in some cases under the Obama administration, and Obama-era images of children in such structures have been mislabeled as occurring under the Trump administration on several occasions.
The Hill has reached out to the Biden campaign for comment.
i thnik that pretty much covers the illegal immigration part. let's move on to the "caused 200,000 deaths" claim. this is of course absurd as no president could possibly have prevented all deaths from this virus. to claim that Trump is directly responsible for all 200,000 (which are being vastly over-counted to begin with) deaths is simply ridiculous and nothing more than ranting talking points for far left liberals like yourself. would you blame Trump directly for the actions of Andy Cuomo and several other Governors who made disastrous decisions to place covid patients in nursing homes thus exposing the most vulnerable of all, the elderly, to the very thing that threatened them? or would you just subtract all those deaths off and blame the remainder on Trump? would Biden have been able to prevent every single death? of course not. to claim that is again absurd and nothing more than liberal rhetoric. recall that Biden claimed that Trump's travel ban was "racist" and "xenophobic" then later claimed he would have done the same thing. there's a word for that .. hypocrite.
well that pretty much covers the 200,000 deaths. let's move on to the economy. your claim Trump destroyed the economy is once again absurd and disingenuous. the economy was just fine prior to the virus and it is the virus and not anything Trump did that caused the economy to collapse. Trump once again did not have a direct role in the mass closure of non-essential businesses as that was the doing of those pesky Governors like Cuomo. again. any impact at a federal level which would be Trump's direct area was minuscule compared to the control over business in their states by those pesky Governors. if Trump was the lawless Emperor you and the media howler monkeys claim he is, then he could have ordered those pesky Governors not to shutdown so much of the local economies as they did. but Trump isn't and thus once again it fell to those pesky Governors to decide and they decided on a near total shutdown thus they are responsible for the economic impact of this virus directly where Trump is not.
anything else you'd like to add to this other than "Orange Man Bad!"?
