Trump will travel country to sell health care bill, White House says
The Washington Times ^ | March 12, 2017 | Ben Wolfgang

Trump administration officials guaranteed Sunday that the president will hit the road soon to rally support for the health care bill put forth by House Republicans, saying the White House is “fully committed” to the legislation.

“The president, the vice president, all of us at the White House are fully committed to this bill, and we’re going to do whatever it takes to get it passed,” Gary Cohn, director of the White House’s National Economic Council, said during an interview on “Fox News Sunday.”

You WobblyCons are all atwitter trying to hang this around his neck prematurely.

Why is that?

Oh, I don’t know...maybe because he and Pence have been all over the place pimping this “Beautiful plan!”

Hey, I hope I’m dead wrong, but Trump is doing nothing to ensure me that he has a Full Repeal in place! He’s talking about doing this in “phases!”

I understand that, unlike Obamacare which was 1200 pages, this bill is only 70 pages.

He’s going to hold a rally and ask the people what they think. When he heats the Ryan boos, he’ll know what to do.

The bill is only 70 pages because it keeps most of the 1200-page Obamacare legislation intact. The 70 pages aren’t replacing 1200 pages; they’re only changing part of the 1200 pages.

If he promotes that crap, he is finished. Political suicide in only 1.5 months.

He’s not stupid, he knows exactly how the people feel about this. Something else has to be going on here.

I don’t think he did. During the campaign he said he wanted people covered, that he wouldn’t let them die in the streets, and made some vague reference to the government providing it.

If we know Ryan is treacherous, lazy and incompetent—Trump does, too. I think this is about tax cuts...

It needs to be only one page. One sentence on that one page. Stating that the Affordable Care Act is henceforth abolished, null and void.

This will not go well. How will he react to a mix of dead silence and or boos over ryancare? Hopefully he will listen to us.

I am not interested in advocacy for this bill from anyone.

I would be interested in hearing how they plan to fix all the remaining flaws found in Ryan/Trumpcare. And that assumes there is any such plan, not just lip service.

Dear Mr. President,

Please refrain from selling the Health Care bill until Congress has repealed obamacare, as they have promised for 7 long years, and until they have produced a bill that is worthy of your support and not an insult to the people who elected you.

Sincerly,
Dan

People Please! Remember this is a dodge. A gimmick. A head-fake by Trump. He is trolling the dems and the GOP-e. He is playing 3D chess while these morons are playing checkers. It's more "Art of the Deal" negotiating that will leave conservatives winners. It's (insert you own spin-line here).

At least it better be.

If Trump is really sincere here and he wants to swallow this load by Ryan, then he may not last 4 years

It’s a mistake to keep saying the process is open - for it to improve and change thru endless input.

Bold leadership requires a simple plan... and then you sell that and get the House and Senate to follow suit. The House would follow, putting pressure on the Senate.

He should be out there preaching choice and freedom, helping those who are poor, showing he is opposed to health insurance companies that are afraid of real competition, and pharmaceutical companies that cheat the consumer.

He’s in my opinion unfortunately running the clock out on his already late legislative start. It’s clear the GOP Congressional leadership wants him stuck in the mud.

He’s going to TN likely to provide cover for Alexander and Corker, both of which are mushy at best.

Nope. Ryancare. If it gets signed into law then you guys can stop chomping at the bit.

___________________________________

Say What? IF it gets signed into law?

Just who do you think would do the signing? Trump of course.

But never fear. There ain’t enough votes from dems and repubs to ever send this POS bill to the White House.

I hope he will stay at home and focus on other major issues too. There are many problems besides Obamacare. So much work to be done...
