Well last time they tried to get rid of it, but John McCain sank that effort as if failed 49-51. Just before he died of cancer.

Now all the John McCains have been purged from the GOP and they will have a bigger senate majority, and likely a significant house majority too. So if there is an effort to repeal the ACA, it'll very likely pass.

Non stop fillibusters for 4 years?

Is that our only hope?

You mean filibuster. The Democrats didn't eliminate it under Biden out of fear for what Republicans would do when they took power again. Guess what?

They’re going to get rid of the filibuster anyways?
