I don't think even this hyper activist SCOTUS would gut the ACA over a typo oversight. But, you never know.
The GOP is in a "Catch 22" regardless of the decision by the SCOTUS. The GOP brought this on themselves because the GOP congress would not participate in the planning of the ACA. The GOP should have helped create the ACA instead of complaining now about those parts of the bill they could have had influence to change at the time.
Spoken like a true partisan. It was bad legislation. The republicans called out the constitutionally issues early. Pelosi made it clear there would be no compromise. So you own it. Now it's in question and you want to blame the GOP for not participating. Pretty amazing.
There were plenty of compromises while this bill was being drafted. If the GOP had participated in drafting the ACA bill, instead of sitting out and pouting, they might have contributed aspects that they believed would be beneficial.

GOP governors that declined the ACA’s Medicaid expansion and opted against creating a state-based exchange to provide access to health insurance, relied instead on the federal exchange.
The Supreme Court’s decision in King v. Burwell, could eliminate federal subsidies for 34 states under the Affordable Care Acts which would cause to 9.6 million people to lose their health insurance.
This is a quagmire for these GOP governors, especially those who want to run for POTUS.
they said the same thing about the King when colonistts dumped Tea in the harbor.....'are you're going to get it!!!"
