A new national poll from Fox News lays out the grim math for Republican leadership on Capitol Hill. Only about a third of Americans overall support the American Health Care Act (as the Republican bill is known) strongly or somewhat. While many Americans haven’t yet formed an opinion, more than half oppose the legislation — including 40 percent of the country that strongly opposes it.

As with President Trump’s approval ratings, opinions of the legislation are dragged down by particularly strong opposition from Democrats. But even among independents, fewer than a third support the bill.

Compare that to favorability numbers on Obamacare from the same poll. Half the country views the existing legislation positively, including more than 4 in 10 independents.

Support for Obamacare among Democrats is far higher than support for the Republican replacement bill is among Republicans.

There are a lot of asterisks that apply here, including that the Republican bill is still evolving and not yet well known. But it’s worth comparing where it stands to how people viewed Obamacare shortly before its passage. In Gallup polling taken in March 2010, more people wanted their members of Congress to vote against the bill than for it — but narrowly, by a 45 to 48 percent margin. In that case, too, opposition from the opposing party outweighed support from the party hoping to pass the legislation. Independents, though, were split.

On Wednesday night, Trump seemed to express some frustration with the fact that health care was still working its way through Congress (though it’s been moving at a much faster clip than Obamacare, which took about a year to pass). “We’ve got to get the health care done,” he said at a rally in Nashville. He added, “Then we get on to tax reduction.”

According to the Fox News poll, Americans are more interested in the latter than the former. Asked to prioritize what Trump works on, replacing Obamacare was ranked fifth overall in terms of the issue people thought was most pressing. Even among Republicans, it was tied for fourth on the priority list — with cutting taxes.
