When Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell suggested this week that Republicans might take another run at repealing the Affordable Care Act if they win more seats in November, it was a good line for Republican voters — but not for the rest of the public.
Between the lines: The law really was unpopular throughout most of Barack Obama's presidency — especially in late 2013 and 2014, when the website was crashing and people's individual health plans were being canceled. But look when it became more popular again: right after Donald Trump became president. And it still is, even though Republican voters still want to repeal it.
