This is such a hilarious self own.

People like to have health insurance. Obamacare has been in place now for over a decade.

Maybe he should also stress that if Trump wins he will end social security and Medicare too.

That would really inspire voters to rally behind Trump🙄

No specifics were listed, but but Johnson did say after Healthcare they would 100% privatize other things as well. So those could very well be what he was referring too.

I love how he spins off privatizing as making healthcare / insurance better.

Healthcare is very expensive right now, and people hate that. The Republicans like to think that's because of regulations and Obamacare was disastrous. Let me break it to them. Prices are only going to go up for many and others will be rejected coverage if we privatize health insurance. Certain coverages that are garnered now will be eliminated. But they are not talking about that.

Just that regulation is unAmerican and we need to fix our broken healthcare system by 100% privatizing it and get the governments involvement out.

The reason insurance costs as much as it does is also a direct result of GOP interference too. Removing the penalties for not having coverage means there are people not in the pool and as such, the rates never reduced to the levels they should have. Not to mention, dumbass states like mine not taking the medicare expansions because it would cost too much. It cost the same, you just denied your constituents the access they should have had.
 
They’ll also be in a place to say “we told you” when their economic policies make everything more expensive while gutting services everyone needs and/or uses and we plummet into recession.

TBF, this has been a common practice since at least the 2000 election. A performative practice that both parties partake. If Trump were to win a Dem would do the same thing. Basically in a joint session any republican or Dem can object to certifying and if a Senator backs their objection then the Senate and Congress will split up and will each debate and vote on whether to uphold the objection a simple majority takes it. Even if the GOP were to take the majority in the Senate it’s unlikely that all every GOP Senator would vote to overturn the results (a uncomfortable amount might) but their margins would be so slight that they need every GOP senator to vote to overturn the results and there are enough traditional GOP senators that I seriously doubt this would be an issue. The House would also have to vote to overturn the results as well and as of right now the GOP is projected to lose control of the house meaning that they won’t have the votes not to certify and Harris will preside over the joint session and will also certify. So it will likely be a non-issue.
