They didn't do anything about it the last time he was in office and just talked about a replacement plan that never materialized. What makes it seem more likely they'll actually remove it this time?

Serious question. I didn't really mean to make it sounds as snarky as it looks on a reread.

If John McCain hadn't basically gotten out of his death bed to vote no on repeal, it would have been gone.

I know it was during the $15 minimum wage vote and not the ACA vote, but this thread reminded me of it.
