Nancy Pelosi issues stark 'warning' to voters, Internet answers swiftly and vociferously

Internet came back with receipts after former US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi tweeted about the dangers of re-electing Trump

WASHINGTON, DC: Former US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has been enlisted by President Joe Biden's re-election campaign to warn about potential threat to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), commonly referred to as Obamacare if Trump is re-elected.

This is in response to former President Donald Trump's promise to replace the ACA if he wins a second term in the upcoming 2024 US general elections.

The Biden campaign's new strategy, "Trump's America in 2025," seeks to highlight what Democrats believe the Republican former president will do if he is re-elected, as well as his multiple legal challenges.

The Biden campaign plans to air Trump's threat to repeal the law with new advertising in battleground states, while contrasting Biden's efforts to reduce drug costs.

The new campaign strategy is aimed at showcasing Biden's commitment to healthcare reform, as well as his ability to address the challenges facing the healthcare sector.

Ultimately, the Biden campaign hopes to convince voters that the former president's policies are a threat to the ACA, and that Biden's leadership is necessary to ensure the continued success of the healthcare law.

What did Nancy Pelosi say about Trump and the Affordable Care Act?

Former US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi took to X on Tuesday, November 28, to post two lines regarding the healthcare law that is currently in place under the Biden administration and issued a dire warning for the American people.

She tweeted, “Make no mistake: if Donald Trump wins next year — he's coming for your health care AGAIN! If Joe Biden wins, your health care will be safe and sound. -NP”

On a call organized by Biden’s campaign on Tuesday, Nancy Pelosi said, “The former president reminded us that he is hellbent on destroying the Affordable Care Act,”

“When he says he’s going after our health care, believe him because he’s done it before,” she added.

Pelosi who chairs the national advisory board of the Biden campaign, noted, "The Affordable Care Act and all its transformational benefits will be on the ballot."

She warned, "The American people will need to know that if Donald Trump wins next year, he's coming for your health care."

According to the US Department of Health and Human Services, more than 40 million Americans had health coverage under the ACA (Affordable Care Act) and in January, the Biden administration reported that nearly 16 million Americans signed up for health insurance through the ACA marketplace, which was a 13% increase compared to the previous year.

Biden is now focusing on attacking Trump during fundraisers and political events. His aides say that he plans to increase the severity of the attacks if and when Trump clinches the Republican nomination.

Some Democrats and donors have requested the White House to shift the focus from Biden's economic record, which they call ‘Bidenomics.’

The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll showed that Trump and Biden are in a close race, with Trump leading Biden 51% to 49% when respondents were asked to choose between the two.

Internet claps back at Nancy Pelosi’s tweet

People on X responded to Pelosi’s tweet with fervor as she warned the American citizens of the real-life consequences if Trump returned to the White House.

One X user said: “How about you mind your own business and let us decide our own Healthcare needs.”

Another user wrote: “We all remember how good life in America was under Donald Trump's leadership! Trump has the support of the majority of the people. Trump was cheated in 2020 and he will win in a historic landslide in 2024! Imo”

Another user tweeted: “Your kids will be fighting in WW3 and you’ll be 50K in credit card debt, fighting homeless guys on the street but you’ll be safe with another 4 years of Joe”

One X user said: “Affordable Care Act - ObamaCare has failed miserably because it lacks free-market principles and is a one-size-fits all, centrally planned boondoggle.”

Another user quipped: “I thought Obama fixed healthcare.”

Another X user snarked back: “My insurance premiums just went up again. Thanks for that”

One user stated: “Health insurance still sucks, even after the ACA. Pretending the status quo is the only option isn't sustainable.”

Finally, this user tweeted: “Make no mistake: Both parties accept donations from big pharma and that's why neither one will give everyone Healthcare. Fixed it for you.”
