Well. One part of Obama care was to force hospitals to have electronic records. So that will be preserved

Thanks Obama

But my guess is Trump will just withdraw the suit

This is literally the same thing that happened with Bush. People may have forgotten but the precursor to TDS was BDS where conservatives claimed liberals only hated Bush because of some emotional derangement.

Then when Bush proved himself terrible beyond any doubt they pretended all that never happened and that they never liked him to begin with. It’s all bad faith bullshit. After all while it was 20 years ago there are tons of current Trump voters who were enthusiastic Bush supporters only to now decide Bush was bad because Trump says so.

there was the opposite effect with Reagan. Reagan was thoroughly reviled by the public in last year and especially after when even his steadfast supporters got tired of the treason and shit economy. Then of course they got mad at Bush 1 for trying to fix things.

But when Newt came around, conservatives were forced to revise their opinion about Reagan, there was a Heritage-led assault of Reagan-praise biographies and re-assessments from the most illiterate and malicious of conservative talking heads to revitalize the image of an unmistakable treasonous and barbarous cvnt like Reagan to make him the golden child of all conservatives anywhere. Once they learned that this strategy worked on their simple-minded, drooling voters (See: greenman and geek), it was lights out for the conservative movement. Heritage knew that they could shove any amount of crime and US-hating bullshit down the throats of these morons, tell them it was patriotism, and they'd swallow it up. All they had to do was just let 105th Congress spend 2 full years of nothing but stapling Reagan's name on everything and these idiots would clap like circus seals. Just look at them: not a thinking cell in their fucking skulls.

Now here we are.

Newt is on my, “biggest piece of shit for American democracy” list, along with Mitch McConnell, dick Cheney, Rumsfeld, and alito. Trump wasn’t on the list his first term and figured him to be a figurehead with no real impact on our democracy but then 1/6 happened and he’s now on the top piece of shit spot. His “policies”, like Reagan’s, will be something America will have to deal with for probably fifty years.
