I am more interested in what their replacement is going to look like.

Remember Trump's promise was to "repeal and replace".

Repealing Obamacare Could Be Trump's First Lesson in the Glacial Pace of Congress

Donald Trump promised voters an immediate repeal of Obamacare, but
Republicans in Congress likely won’t have a bill ready for him on Day
One. Or Day Two. Or perhaps even his first two weeks.

Republican leaders will start deploying fast-track procedures Wednesday to get the
bill through the Senate, but that will require weeks of wrangling, if
not longer.

It’ll be an early lesson for Trump in the sometimes-glacial pace of Congress. And it’s likely to get more
difficult from here, as the incoming president moves on to other areas
where Republicans aren’t in such lockstep, such as infrastructure
spending, where he might need bipartisan support.
