McConnell is taking a backseat. That's a surprise he isn't falling in line this time around!

McConnell signals he won’t play a leading role in crafting the health-care bill Trump wants
Quote:
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has signaled that he does not plan to play a leading role in developing a new health-care bill and will instead wait to see what President Trump can craft that might pass in the Democratic-led House.

“I look forward to seeing what the president is proposing and what he can work out with the speaker,” McConnell said in a brief interview with Politico on Thursday.

That shows KayAnn doesn't pay for her own Insurance and is totally clueless.

More people lost Coverage due to ACA than gained coverage and it raised premiums and deductibles 200-500% for us poor suckers who actually have to buy Insurance and don't get Govt subsidies.

All the GOP has to do is either:
1) make something to replace it which is both cheaper and terrific.
2) Kill the ACA. Poor people do not have enough economic output to warrant significant medical intervention anyway.

Nice way to assume what you don't know. Facts matter, not your opinion.

Instead of posting facts, you attack facts. Typical rhetoric to try to achieve your agenda of not agreeing with facts. Your opinion is irrelevant. It is a fact that MOST people are satisfied with ACA and it's profitable. Of course, it's not perfect and doesn't satisfy all Americans but there isn't one policy, regulation or law that does.

Many judges AND justices disagree with your opinion including the judge that struck it down yesterday and the 5 justices that previously struck it down. They are still on the bench. Your personal opinion doesn't validate facts. I know many people that benefit from the ACA.

Is the goal defeat Trump at every opportunity, or improving the opportunities for people to handle their health care?
The job of the president it so uphold, execute laws, but Trump seems to think his job is to undermine / sabotage / disrespect the laws.

If he has a plan as good as he says, then put it up for vote and it should have no trouble passing.

Plain and simple.

The ONLY option for healthcare is to get the State completely out of it, period.

LOL. McConnell knows Trump has got nothing, and is willing to let Trump make a fool of himself proving it. That's quite a flip for the majority leader, letting Trump sink without his bootlicking backup, but McConnell is smart enough to realize that neither Trump nor the GOP have any idea what to do about healthcare, so he's is fine with letting things be.

So, Mr. Trump, let's see what you've got. Which we all know is nothing.

I only read one link, the one from The Hill but it's not quite what it claims to be. No, the people did not want the GOP to simply end Obamacare with nothing to replace it. That really isn't support for Obamacare. It's simply saying it's better than nothing.

Not the bar we should set.
