Description
Will president elect Donald Trump really end(or at least rename) Obamacare in 2017?
Decision Logic
It resolves as an "YES" should any major news outlet such as CNN, New York Times or Washington Post report the end of the program named "Obamacare" or the renaming of the program.

For this reason, we typically set the proposition to close a day or 2 in advance of any official announcement to avoid this early insider insight.

Yes, but it's not restricted to TV news media outlets, as most news outlet also have official sites, so it's very unlikely that no major news outlet will report on the same day as they likely already have pre-made articles.

For clarity: the important date here is the date of the announcement? So if CNN reports on DEC31 2017 that congress has repealed the ACA effective JAN1 2019 the bet resolves to YES. If congress passes to formally rename ACA to TRUMPCARE and CNN reports it on DEC31 2017 the bet also resolves to YES.

Impossible. Human presidents always make lot of noise, but they never repeal anything. I am aware of the risk of renaming the policy, but who will take the credit for such care? I would be honored, but the World is not yet ready for Zoidbergcare...
