There is no replacement. Republicans have had like a decade to come up with a viable alternative to pitch to people but there isn’t one. Just basically to go back to how things were before Obamacare, thus giving people with preexisting conditions a death sentence or bankruptcy.
Yup. They didn't have a better plan in 2017 when Trump/Republicans tried to outright repeal the ACA and McCain thankfully stopped it. They don't have a better plan now.
America needs to vote out as many of these scumbag Republicans as it can come November.
The SC could rule a few different ways on both cases involving the ACA, but if they flat out rule that the ACA is unconstitutional and therefore needs to be dismantled, there's nothing much Biden can do, as even a Presidential executive order does not override an SC decision.
It could fall to some states to try and keep the ACA themselves, if they have the foundation for it, iirc not many do, but the states would have to pay the subsidiaries themselves and there's no real incentives for the Insurance Companies to opt in, as they can make more money by denying people they deem "nonviable", ie people with preexisting conditions that will cost them more than the monthly premium they'd receive.
What we could potentially see is a new Health Care plan if the Democrats take the WH, take the Senate and keep the House. But that could take a few years. We'll see after the SC, as noted, could go more than just it stays or it goes.

I have nothing personal to lose if the ACA goes away, as I have my own insurance for me and my family.
I do feel bad for the people who rely on it and could now lose their insurance, potentially at the risk of the lives, I'm also not a Trumper and have compassion for other people.

Biden will make it better. Go Biden!
Though thinking about it, what Biden needs to do every night of the debates is mention that the SC will be voting on the ACA on Nov 10th because of Trump's almost 4 year attack on the ACA and that if they rule against it, millions of Americans could lose their insurance by being dropped or priced out, especially if they have preexisting conditions. Hammer that shit home, as Trumpers who rely on the ACA will be watching.
