GOP Operative Can't Believe Mike Johnson's Gift to Dems on Obamacare [VIDEO]

During an appearance on CNN, GOP operative Matt Gorman said that he is having flashbacks after Mike Johnson gave the Democrats a messaging gift regarding the Affordable Care Act. 

Republicans have been talking for more than a decade about how they plan to replace the ACA with something better. But in all these years, they have failed to come up with any kind of alternative to the important healthcare plan. 

At a recent rally, the Speaker of the House promised there would be no Obamacare. Gorman said of the statement: 

"When it comes to the ACA stuff, I think I feel like I'm having flashbacks to all the campaigns I've worked on. Mitt Romney before, but in '18 I think the Trump campaign and Trump himself recognize what happened when he started as president in office early 2017, going after Obamacare, I don't think they would do that the same way again."

Gorman continued by saying that the Republicans failed to take advantage when they originally had control early in Donald Trump's presidency: 

"I think if you talk to people close to Trump, they wish they'd gone infrastructure or tax reform rather than going Obamacare because, again, as someone who dealt with House campaigns in '18 that was a crystallizing issue through-line through the election, and so look, we'll see what happens, of course, but I think that's very acute still for the Trump team."
