Good luck, because if not the subsidies will just keep getting kicked down the road.

Nope.
If they dismantled Obamacare there would be no subsidies to kick.
Right?

I just dont see a scenario where that will occur.
We were promised it would be removed in 2016, and its still going strong.

I get it, but again, that's exactly what people said about Roe v Wade from 1973 all the way up to Dobbs.
Same idea. "That's never going to happen, so we should let it go and stop losing votes over it." I heard that all my life until the summer of 2022.
I'll agree with you that the most likely outcome is that no one will do the right thing and the next Democratic administration that has the votes will push it into a fully socialized system. (I think that happens even if the ACA subsidies keep getting extended, btw).
My point is that it doesn't have to be that way. Even if that is what ultimately happens.
You're not talking about any huge voting bloc here. Way smaller than the number of people that the BBB is going to piss off next year. And dwarfed by the number of middle class people who would get a raise by doing away with the nonsense.
It's not like reforming SS, which might have a public approval rating of 4%. I get why we're one day just going to ride over the cliff on that one like Thelma and Louise in our dusty convertible, refusing to give up 'till the end. I understand the voting pressures that will drive that ending.
But this one doesn't have to go that way. It really doesn't.
EDIT: Look at how the Democrats sold the program in the first place. Anybody with two working brain cells could see exactly where the ACA would end up, but they sold everybody on it and promised them they would save money and not have to give up their doctors, etc. And they rolled out the implementation over such a long period of time that people don't even associate the program with them any more.
Republicans just need to do the same exact thing—only in reverse—to get rid of it.
Lack of salesmanship and planning is the Republican's problem.

Conservatives like myself are a reaction to your Orange trojan horse trying to hijack the conservative movement for progressive economics and globalism.
First of all, you're not a conservative, but a blow-hard. After that, I can't decipher from your quote whether or not you want progressive economics and globalism. That's the problem with you. You play both sides and try to pretend you have some wisdom. You don't. You only play the "hijack" card. You don't have a take. You don't have a vision. You don't love our country. You only have contrarian views. That's my take, and I'll hang my hat on it.

Yup. All Trump 2.0 is good at are "Mean Girls" style hype videos tweeted out from official accounts.
Disgusting.

For this great piece of insight? Damn you are retarded.
You also have a higher number of DV to UV post ratios as well, care to expound on that trend?
Developing some self-awareness and accepting that Trump isn't infallible would do you and the other cult members some good
