Sen. John Thune (R-World Of Pure Imagination) sent out this tweet today in reference to the King v. Burwell lawsuit that’s about to be decided by the Supreme Court.
Not unlike the challenge to Obamacare it is referencing, the tweet is deeply stupid.
Six million people risk losing their health care subsidies, yet @POTUS continues to deny that Obamacare is bad for the American people.

The health care subsidies those 6 million people could lose are a part of the Affordable Care Act. Conservative enemies of Obamacare are the only reason those subsidies are at risk.
Words! Meaning! John Thune likes putting the former in combinations that are completely devoid of the latter.
