Yes, a flippant remark.  Imagine that happening in DC.  Or Juneau.  We should be amending the ACA, not trying to re-create a wheel that the whole world has discarded in favor of single payer or universal.  On the tube yesterday, one of those republicans was on a talk show, defending TrumpCare.  Bragged that it would spawn 50 "experiments" with medicaid, ie one for each state.
