Maybe you enjoy denying reality.
You might hope for better healthcare benefits from your employer if your job was unionized, but of course the Republicans have done everything they can to destroy the unions as well.

It is not "failing on it's own" the efforts of the GOP and Trump to make sure it will fail are well documented. If they lose the last insurer in one of these poor counties of TN or KY, Trump will do nothing to help his supporters, this I have to see.
