Millions that use the ACA voted for him. Trump stood on the stage every night during the election and said the replacement would give people better insurance at a fraction of the price. That is not going to happen if this bill is actually signed into law.

This is a graphic showing the number of people who got free (or very cheap) Medicaid under the ACA. Do you not think a decent number of those people, especially in the red states, voted for Trump. A poll showed that when asked many people think Obamacare and the ACA are two different things.

I think this is all a ploy. They pushed it through the House knowing it won't pass the Senate. When it dies in the Senate Paul Ryan and Trump can say, "We tried to repeal and replace Obamacare, but zero democrats would support us so it is their fault."
