I think that it's going to take more than that. Obama Care is something that most Americans won't forget; being told by the government they are forced to buy something. If the Democrats can't do anything about these jobless lowlifes protesting every time Trump farts in public, they will keep reminding people of why we shouldn't vote Democrat.
Well, we'll see what they've come up with. They've definitely been sending out some mixed signals, and they've had 9 years to come up with one coherent plan.
It does seem that they recognize the challenges and risks they're staring at. It's time for them to put up or shut up now.

Seems to me Trump is working night and day. It's only been one full month. T'he major problem with healthcare is it's not affordable for a lot of people--even with Commie Care. Whatever plan they come up with, it has to be so that people can easily afford coverage while at the same time, taking government measures to reduce the cost of care. It's more complex and difficult than the Palestinian Israeli conflict. So anything close to a good plan will take a lot of time to come up with.
It will have to be more than a good plan, though. It will have to be something they can sell to the public. The two are not the same.
They know that anything they come up with will be attacked, out of the gate, and that millions are already nervous they'll lose their coverage.
The ACA is a stupid, insane pig of a law. But I still wouldn't want to be in the GOP's shoes right now.

Commie Care was bad because it was all politics. It gave likely Democrat voters easier access to healthcare at the cost to likely Republican voters. You'll never come up with anything good if politics is more of the motive than actually solving the problem.
They are looking to put cost saving measures in already. They are talking about things like Medical Savings Accounts, tort reform, and making it a federal law to allow all insurance companies to compete regardless of where they are located at. Those are things that can reduce healthcare costs. They also need to look into Medicare since that plays a big part in our unaffordable insurance. I hate to say it, but if we want that plan, we need to fund it. I can't remember the last time we had an increase in payroll contributions for Medicare.
There may be no other real choice but to go to socialized healthcare at this point. Get rid of all government plans including Medicare, Medicaid, SCHIPS, VA, and just have everybody covered.
