I think it's vital to repeatedly tag the Republican Party with getting rid of the ACA.

I think if we spend too much time talking about how Trump is the one getting rid of it, then Republicans would just turn around in the next election and say, "it was just him. He's not a real conservative." Already there are people who are having buyer's remorse in voting for Trump. But we need to make it clear that the consequences aren't just "that's what you get for voting for Trump" but "that's what you get for voting Republican."

The men don't need a curtain to pull the levers while Fox News says, "what men? What levers? What is a lever anyway? It's just something that elite liburls talk about! If you think you hear levers, it's actually Mexicans and everyone of a... darker persuasion... pulling your Murkan rug out from under you!!"

No curtain needed. We've found out, with the reporter-mocking video, that Republicans and Trumpies will literally believe Fox News before their own lyin' eyes. Distracting from the men pulling the levers is chump change after accomplishing that.
