Getting rid of the ACA trainwreck and vetting immigrants and refugees are both positives.

Getting rid of the ACA without an immediate and decent replacement will destroy the lives of millions.

And immigrants and refugees are already vetted. I should know, given the vetting I had to go through just to get a tourist's visa.

Not quite. He advised caution in handling a necessary component of national security. No one ever mentions his warnings about the Industrial-Scientific complex.

I would be fine with a replacement for the ACA if it was better. But no, the method is just to scrap it and have no alternative. Yeah, great approach, after having 8 years to come up with a damn plan in the first place.

Considering thee ACA didn't do a single thing to make healthcare more affordable (in fact both the premiums ad the deductibles rose considerably), going back to what we had pre-ACA and starting over is a good idea.
