It was signed into law under (as a two year temporary Covid provision) *Trump*.

'Democrats' considered it a truly massive, legitimately unbelievable fucking win to get it at all.....

If *OBAMA*care premiums suddenly hit $1100 a month and the GOP goes all in on pinning it on a bill Biden passed there's no chance in hell you'll successfully pin it on Trump with the kind of voters you NEED to see what Trump is doing to them
