Both President Obama and Vice President-elect Mike Pence traveled to Capitol Hill Wednesday for separate sessions to plot the fate of Obamacare.

The president’s meeting with congressional Democrats only underscored how powerless his party is to stop a repeal of Obamacare. The get-together yielded little more than slogans and epithets. Obama instructed his allies to label any GOP replacement as “Trumpcare.” Democratic leaders emerged from the gathering with a catchphrase, accusing Republicans of working to “make America sick again.”
