They need 50 votes plus Pence. I have a hard time believing that any version of Trumpcare that gets 50 votes in the Senate would pass the House. It will make for an interesting reconciliation process.

And yet it’s starting to sound like the Senate is just tweaking the House bill. We’re not hearing anything other than relatively small demands being made to extend the time when Medicaid changes are implemented. Nothing about the rest of the House bill’s other major provisions including the subsidies granted in that bill to help people purchase their own policies.
I suspect this is all going to be wrapped up a lot faster than the Democrats and liberal press expected, especially if the House is okay with what turn out to be minor changes in the House bill. If so, the House approves the Senate bill and it could be signed immediately thereafter.
Then Trump can fire Mueller and libs will never find out what’s in the bill until it’s implemented because they’ll be too busy hyperventilating over Trump’s presumed obstruction of justice.
