Breaking the law again. Why is he still in office? (Dumb question, I know).

Because nobody holds him accountable.

And speaking of accountability, PRACTICALLY, how do you hold him accountable other than impeach him? ( which would be impossible to achieve ).

The problem is, ploys like this really work. If they didn’t they wouldn’t be used so frequently.

Since the president doesn’t follow the law, why do the rest of us have to?

Yeah, yeah, I know - they got the guns and the legal “authority” to use them.

If the IRS phones to find out why someone hasn’t bought insurance, the agent will presumably ask if they’d like to claim a “hardship” exemption and the answer inevitably will be yes. No muss, no fuss.
***I doubt it will go down that way. IRS won’t go along with a “no muss no fuss” plan because bureaucrats rarely, if ever, give up power that was granted to them.

“..how do you hold him accountable other than impeach him? ( which would be impossible to achieve ).”

::::::::::

While actual impeachment would not happen (yet) due to his accomplices in the Senate, at least the “opposition” could be yelling and screaming, calling for impeachment and trial, etc. Bring the magnitude of his crimes against this country and its Constitution into the light and KEEP IT THERE. Make lots of noise — wake people up — just like the libs do every time a Repub sneezes.

*FIGHT!!*

“So they’re going to let people who want/need the exemption discover it on their own.”

Excellent analysis. This is pretty much the same as the theory behind coupons instead of lower prices. Give a break to the folks who thought the item was too expensive but still let the folks who were willing to pay full price do so.

It’s like “just mention this ad and get 10% off your first order”. When you are at the register they don’t say “oh do you want to mention the ad and save 10%?”

If you don’t know about the exemption and you are going to buy insurance because you think you have to they won’t have a click box on the wensite that says “Would you like to claim hardship and exit this morass without paying a penalty?”

Remember when they rammed this law down our throat? Health care was too important, to urgent to accommodate such niceties as debate, hearings, alternate solutions. Obamacare needed to happen and it needed to happen NOW! Obamacare was always about power, never about solving a problem.

Yes, the fines still exist, they just won’t go after you for them this year. That doesn’t void the law, and the fines would just continue to accrue until someone does enforce the law. Some favor.

If the mandate is suspended, the corresponding fine is suspended.

You win the senate, hold the house, have SCOTUS declare pieces unconstitutional then you have 2 years to impeach. If you try to impeach now, 1) you won’t get far without the senate and 2) it’s an election year and the MSM will scream racism like never before.

Bide your time, form your plan, win the senate then go balls to the wall.
