Sure, the GOP Congress failed to pass a "repeal and replace" bill.
No worries, says Trump. He'll just violate the ACA, authorizing policies that don't comply with the ACA, but are designed to woo healthy people away from the ACA exchanges, leaving only sick people in the exchanges. That, of course, would collapse the system, which is Trump's oft-stated goal.
Trump's move is clearly illegal, but that doesn't matter to him - he is determined to sabotage the ACA in many ways, and he just doesn't care about violating the law. He will happily violate the oath he swore when he took office.
As his toadies cheer on his lawless conduct.
