I strive to deal in facts.

And the simple fact is that the 2015 repeal of Obamacare has ALREADY gotten enough votes to pass the House. Heck the attempt to overide Obama’s veto gathered over 240 votes (about 55%).

AHCA was such a bad bill that it could not even get enough votes to pass (218).

The attendants of Fedzilla in Congress do not want to repeal Obamacare. Fedzilla derives enormous power from controlling all health care decisions and all medical records.
The purpose of Ryancare was to preserve that power.
Those were show votes that they knew would be vetoed.

Everybody is blaming the Freedom Caucus when there were an equal number of liberal Republicans bailing from Ryancare.

Aha....but you forgot one salient fact...

Our “brave” politicians eagerly passed “repeal” bills in the House, knowing Obama was 100% certain to veto. Thus they were immune from the wrath of voters who receive subsidies for their health insurance (85% on Obamacare receive subsidies from tax payers to pay for their insurance).

Now that we have DJT in the white house, our brave politicians have lost courage to go on record as having taken away health insurance from 22 million voters.
