It's way too late for that. The battle lines have been drawn by the right and the rules of engagement have been set by the left. The country will continue to fracture until one side wins or cries uncle. I can tell you this much, the right are not going to be the ones to cry uncle. The left continues to back them father into the corner. They have no other options left.
I'm unsure how this is the case based on both houses in Congress and the presidency controlled by Republicans.
Democrats control a few states and major metros, but that's it. The left is who is cornered at the moment. And it will only get worse if establishment Democrats don't recognize the serious damage they've done to their party and step aside for populists (like Bernie Sanders and others who pass his litmus test); given no other option, those who are desperate in the US will continue to vote for whomever offers them a lifeline, regardless of the chance that lifeline is legitimate.
The problem with attempting to repeal the ACA is that it leaves enough Republicans vulnerable in midterms that they don't dare repeal it, hence the inability to get the votes necessary.
Don't confuse ideology with self-preservation.
Edit: Thanks for the down votes. But let's consider how ridiculous this notion of the right being "backed into a corner" is. Let's look at facts 1. Most politicians at the state and local level are white and right wing 2. Most business leaders are white and many of them are right leaning 3. Votes have been systematically stolen from left leaning parts of the country via gerrymandering and voter restrictions 4. Rural and white parts of the US are overwhelmingly over represented in the US government via Electoral college, Senate, and state representation 5. Over the last 20 years in two separate occasions the left had the won the popular vote but didn't get the Presidency. In conclusion - LITERALLY ALL INSTITUTIONAL POWER STRUCTURE IN THE US is owned by the right. But somehow they are backed into a corner.
