John Oliver Mocks 5 Years of Incorrect Republican Declarations of the ‘End of Obamacare’

Don't Miss Sarah Jones's Essay On Kristi Noem Titled Predatory Is The Point On The Daily.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver perfectly summed up all of the incorrect Republican predictions of the end of Obamacare in less than two minutes.

Last Week Tonight with John Oliver: And Now – People Prematurely Declaring The End of Obamacare

And now five years at people prematurely declaring the end of Obamacare:

Obama: Today after all the votes have been tallied, health insurance reform becomes law in the United States but just seven minutes

Later the ink barely dry:

Republicans launched a counterattack. I’m confident that the court is going to declare the new health care reform law unconstitutional.

Andrea, some have said that this is maybe the beginning of the end.

It is make it happen next week in the United States Congress and we could put an end to Obamacare.

Michele Bachmann’s campaign promise to quote end Obamacare.

Sure sounds like the beginning of the end for Obamacare.

Obamacare is this the beginning at the end for the Affordable Care Act.

Hearing today at the supreme court could lead to the collapse of Obamacare, could spell the end of Obamacare.

Obama: After multiple challenges before the Supreme Court, the Affordable Care Act is here to stay.

Right as his audience is clapping at Obama’s victory statement, a clip loads in which it is admitted that this is not the end of Republicans trying to dismantle Obamacare. Of course, that will all be rhetorical red meat for their base. We are still waiting for Representative Paul Ryan (R-WI) to come up with an actual alternative to Obamacare. Don’t hold your breath.

Reminder: They called it Obamacare as a smear, but now that the public is liking it more and more, it’s still going to be called Obamacare.
