Trump heads to key 2020 state Michigan with Russia probe behind him and new Obamacare fight ahead

President Donald Trump heads to swing state Michigan on Thursday to buoy his 2020 re-election bid, basking in perhaps the best political news of his presidency but facing fresh risk after reopening his fight to scrap Obamacare.

The Trump administration quickly trampled on the good feelings. The Justice Department said Monday that it agrees with a federal judge's determination that the Affordable Care Act is unconstitutional — a move that reportedly divided the White House and confused congressional GOP leaders.

Trump won key Rust Belt states Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania — which delivered enough electoral votes to swing the election on their own — by pledging to revive their manufacturing and auto industries. But all three states drifted away from the president in last year's midterm elections, in no small part because of the GOP attempts to repeal Obamacare.

After Obamacare's Medicaid expansion, about 634,000 newly eligible people enrolled in the federal-state program in Michigan — the fifth most of any state, according to the Kaiser Family Foundation . The state's uninsured rate has fallen to 5 percent, half of what it was before Medicaid expansion. The Democrats who notched big victories in Michigan last year hammered the GOP over its Obamacare repeal attempts — though it was not the only major issue in their races. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer beat former GOP Attorney General Bill Schuette, a supporter of Obamacare repeal, by nearly 10 points to succeed Republican Rick Snyder. Democrats flipped two House seats in Michigan, and one of those winners — Rep. Elissa Slotkin — repeatedly criticized then-Republican Rep.
