    It’s kind of interesting that the moniker “TrumpCare" hasn’t quite stuck in coverage the way “Obamacare" so quickly became standard.

        Plenty of reasons, but part of it is that Ds just lack the same message discipline that Rs have. They all called it Ocare with every breath

        He's making no effort to truly discuss or advocate for it above and beyond random tweets, so it's hard to remember he's even connected to it

        I'm insisting on calling it that. Or "RepubliCare." Because I will hold them 100% responsible when I die from lack of coverage.

        "Obamacare" is in iambic pentameter. Silly thing, but it rolls off the tongue better than TrumpCare. One contributing factor.

        It's almost as though the words "Trump" and "care" have no place next to each other.

        at some point Obama himself embraced the term, though that might have been after passage to be fair to him
