The premium increases did not start under Trump. They are a continuation of what has already been happening for years. So I don't see how you can say he made a bad law worse.
Since the Republicans have such a narrow hold on the Senate they weren't able to get a couple of independent RINO's on board. After the midterm, the projection is that (R)'s will have 4-6 more Senate seats. If they can hold onto the House, the healthcare law is toast. If they lose the house, then Obamacare remains the law of the land, but will continue to be chipped away at. There's not much Trump can do about the makeup of Congress other than campaign for those that will help him get things done.
With all this great news we will hold both chambers. With dems running on this platform how could we lose?
Democrats Release Tax Hike Plan
This week, Congressional Democrats released a detailed tax hike plan that they promised to implement if given majority control of the House and Senate after the 2018 midterm elections. So much for the crocodile tears about the deficit--Democrats want to raise taxes not to reduce the debt, but rather to spend that tax hike money on boondoggle projects.
