This is why republicans shouldn’t have freakin’ touched it...they own this now, and the media will never stop saying everything was awesome until trump touched it

... but, 3d chess, and all that. This is just the first move, and Trump plays long ball, and it's only been x days, and so you can't judge, and perfect is the enemy of good, and, well, I am sure there are quite a few more. But, make no mistake, there are those who should know better who will remain willfully blind.

Sort of agree. Why not just defund it and let those who want to stay with Obamacare do so. I know that probably can’t be done in any way, but it’d be nice to have an alternate plan to Obamacare that all half way intelligent citizens would stand in line to support. The rest could stay in Obamacare and pay double.

Well it looks like we are going to get that.

What just passed the House..... It still has to pass the Senate and signed by the President.

For the record, the new bill, that was passed by the House, defunds Planned Parenthood. This really upsets the Democrats in the Senate and it will probably fail in the Senate at this point.

President Trump mentioned what you are talking about. While politically it would be a HUGE win..... He said the fallout of the people hurt by it would not be ethically responsible. Hence, why he is trying to give it some life.

Although if it fails the Senate and Obamacare crashes. President Trump looks okay because he tried to fix it. It was the Democrats that blocked it because they do not Trump to get the credit and it defunds planned parenthood. For the record, that’s why the Freedom Caucus signed on to the bill (defunding of planned parenthood).

It is Trump playing 4D Chess. He wins no matter what happens. If it passes the Senate, he destroys Obamacare, planned parent hood is defunded and the DNC has a fit. If Senate blocks it, then it implodes on itself making the Obamacare and the Democrats look bad. While Trump looks good for trying to pass a bill to save it.

Republicans should have gotten rid of the mandate...through legislation not a President going....oh, nevermind. Then they could pass legislation saying American citizens can have any insurance they want. Then watch the insurance companies scramble to put all kinds of new plans back in the market like before and watch Obamacare implode.
They’re really not very smart.

Rebublicans HAVEN’T touched it, yet. It’s only passed in the house. By the time it gets thru the Senate, Obamacare will be kaput.

Those who allow the rambling media to make decisions for them will be the only ones who are disappointed.

“This is why republicans shouldn’t have freakin’ touched it...they own this now,”

Actually, at this moment, the Republicans “own nothing!” And unless the Senate can be brought to the table, there may be “nothing for anyone to own!”

No GOP bill is law yet, anything happening right now is 100% dem caused.
