Maybe.
That's why most people don't really think SCOTUS will get chucked out. The five members who upheld the law's constitutionality before are still there. Even the later ruling with Kennedy siding with the liberals was 6-3 with Roberts.
Right. As for King v. Burwell it was an entirely different question though... one asking if the federal marketplace is even valid when a State refuses to set up its own. Meaning if it wasn't, then every state relying on the federal marketplace wouldn't be able to and people couldn't shop for ACA plans there nor could they get an ACA plan. The mandate was still in effect at that time of course. But they didn't really speak to that one way or another from what I can remember, because it didn't really go after the mandate as it was partially upheld with the tax in place at the time, so it was merely a question of the validity of HHS setting up the federal marketplace when the State won't do so. That is, if I am remembering right. Anyway it seems like Trump and his DOJ are honing in on revisiting NFIB v. Sebelius now that some things (well, one thing) has changed.
"Obama did it! But also you should do it! But Obama did it and it's bad! But also it's the only way to do it!"
There are times when I am just in a state of disbelief on how dumb people are getting. This is one of those times.
Yeah. Before he started talking about this he had already told the gaggle "Thank you very much" but they didn't leave and spent the next 30 seconds or so shouting questions. For whatever reason he just suddenly started speaking up about it.
The GOP for both of those questions.
