     Given concerns that he might repeal without replacing, this is a development that people on the left should be pleased with.

I'm not convinced that anything consequential will be passed.  Repeal probably can't pass unless "replace" goes with it, and it's likely that no single version of "replace" can pass.  So the whole thing dies, and Trump blames it on the Democratic filibuster.  I don't think he really cares anyway.  He had to advocate "repeal Obamacare" in the campaign because it was popular with Republicans, but he doesn't really care about the issue.

And the lunch lady in Wisconsin that voted for Trump because he was gonna give her a raise and give her cheaper healthcare? 

This isn't so much directed at you as it is a rhetorical question for Trump supporting posters who think they'll just win win win right through 2018. 

     He's done more than I thought he would so far. I expect GOP fortunes in the near future will hinge on him convincing people he is reversing economic decline in the Midwest, whether or not it is actually reversed. Towards that end, high profile stories of saving factory jobs like the Carrier one late last year are very important for the Trump Administration.
