Interesting how Fox wants readers to believe that a bill originating in the House somehow belongs to the President. Well, no, if it belongs to anybody, it belongs to Paul Ryan.

The president did take ownership of the bill.
His statement:
Remarks by President Trump on the Health Care Bill
“Thank you very much. We were very close, and it was a very, very tight margin. We had no Democrat support. We had no votes from the Democrats. They weren’t going to give us a single vote, so it’s a very difficult thing to do.”

Notice the president’s use of the word “we” and not “they,” the members of Congress.
