Several conservative groups are echoing President Trump’s call to repeal Obamacare first and then work on a replacement, which would be a dramatic shift from Congress’ current approach.

Conservatives cheered a tweet by Trump on Friday morning that if the Senate can’t pass healthcare reform, it should repeal Obamacare now and create a replacement later. Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Ben Sasse, R-Neb., also called for repeal and delay.
