Nonsense. The Democrats own it ENTIRELY.

The President announced on inauguration day that this was the day power was being transferred from Washington DC to the people, did he not?

Government encroachment into our lives via “healthcare” is anything but giving the power back to where it belongs - We the People.

Faux news is a disgrace.

The law is still “Obamacare.”

Trump is in great shape.

Freedom Caucus & Ryan are 2 biggest losers. They can recover quickly by passing significant tax cut bill.

It is hard to overestimate the damage the Freedom Caucus has done to the fledgling presidency of Donald Trump, and to the country>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Bull crap. Ryan tried to shove a GOP-e, lobby supported bill down our throats, and Ryan somehow talked Trump into supporting him.

This proposed law was a sell out of the People. The HFC did us a favor, they stopped it cold.

Trump made a terrible mistake. He should have seen that there was no way to pass a law that was only supported by 17% of the People. Ryan grifted and then screwed Trump.

If this is how Trump wants to legislate, his presidency is at an end , he’s lame duck after 60 days.. I question whether I can support him any longer. For all of his inaugural banter about being loyal to the People, he sure didn’t last very long before he became part of the GOP-e. Now instead of draining the swamp, Trump is clearly part of it.

Ryan has ruined Trump. As long as Trump does not admit it, he won’t be able to rehabilitate himself to accomplish any legislation of consequence.

The stock market says it all.

America again is in Big Trouble.

Trump supporters are deserting him in hordes.

Trump is in trouble.

So are we.

Ryan must be made to resign.

God bless the Freedom Caucus.

I wouldn’t give them credit for replacing it. They just put some lipstick on the smelly pig and tried to palm it off as an exotic lady.

“The government does not owe us health care or health care insurance.”

What happens to everyone that is on Medicare???

Medicare is illegal because of the Constitution, right??

GOPthee = GOPe

That time, it really was auto-correct.

Bump!

Am sick of the fricking progressive agenda. The Freedom Caucus did the right thing. Screw the rinos that stand for just them and their perks. Faux news can go pound sand as well!

Passing Ryancare did nothing to stop the hikes. The disaster at the polls in 2018 would be much worse had Ryancare passed.

Screw the Krauts. They started WW1 and WW2.

Then they stole all the toilet paper out of the youth hostels in Europe when I was there.

Let them do without toilet paper - and worse.

The FC saved the Trump Presidency. If he steers clear of “negotiating” with the Dems, he might have a great Presidency.

Do not compromise, i.e. surrender, to the Dems. They will get everything while you get crumbs.

The Freedom Caucus represents Trump’s most enthusiastic supporters. He is in danger of losing that support.
He made a mistake with his tweet yesterday.

Last year premiums went up 25%; it’s likely the increases will be higher this year.

Where are the Democrats that are concerned about the rising costs of their Obamacare? Do they really think that a single-payer system will work? Are they aware that the abject failure of Obamacare was predicted, using simple economics? Many Democrats were strong-armed to pass this miserable law.

Yes, the premiums of Obamacare, a 100% Democrat created mess, will continue to go up in costs, with quality of care going down. Why does the MSM only talk about those who might lose coverage? They also do not care what it cost? They believe that we should keep it alive with more tax increases? Where is the adult supervision?

Is there a vast left wing conspiracy to keep Obamacare going and changed to single-payer?

Let the middle class continue to shrink and pay and pay...

By blocking the American Health Care Act of 2017, the conservative group has guaranteed that Americans will struggle forward under the burden of Obamacare.

Which Ryancare did not fix.
Repeal Obamacare period. Just get rid of it. Start fresh

It was a crap bill aimed squarely at the heart of the Trump administration.

The media newsreaders are livid that the HFC robbed them of a story they could use to pound Trump ceaselessly.
