That's not how it works if you think of it that way ...
There's very few ways for the GOP to repeal or even reform ACA since they do not have control of both the executive branch and both chambers of congress (senate and house of representatives). When a bill or a piece of legislation is proposed, you currently need at least 60 votes in the senate to prevent a filibuster and a majority vote in the house of representatives along with the president to sign the bill in order to pass the law. The other way to pass law without the president is for both chambers of congress to get at least 2/3 porportion of votes of which the GOP has NEVER controlled over 2/3 of the senate or the house of representatives for god knows how long ...
That's the pain of practicing the whole separation of powers thing ...
