Yes, where is this really awesome plan that for months he campaigned on? You know the one where it would cost less and EVERYONE would have great coverage.

There's no need for all of this bs that is going on except that we have RINOs in our party causing problems. Those are the topic of this issue, not Trump himself.

Welll....You guys hijacked the Republican party--it was brilliant, btw. But the establishment has been waiting for their moment...and if there's one thing that the last 8+ years have taught us..it's that the Republicans are great at saying no.

As an aside,,what do you think would happen to Trump and the Alt/right agenda, if all those 'RINO's took your advice and crossed the aisle.

I'd be very careful what I wished for.

I don't think that any republican senator who says "no" now, would dare change back later, as they'd be accused of just the kind of backroom deal you mention. There would have to be significant changes that would provide good coverage for at least as many people as the ACA does, for them to shift their votes.

I don't mind at all, the prospect of watching this raggedy bunch walk a tightrope, when they're next up for reelection. They thought that all they had to do was be republicans and have a numerical majority to succeed. And how wrong they were. I don't envy the mess they've made for themselves and those who support them, but I'm hoping the collateral damage for the rest of us is minimal.

What do you get when you have a room full of hundreds of Republicans and six months for them to make changes in American governmental policy? Nothing

This is THEIR failure.


We had a plan; we passed a plan and Republicans promised to blow it up.
And have worked tirelessly to undermine it.

The deal is, they own it now. When it implodes, they still own it.

They've done everything they could to bring it down. We've all seen it.

Their plan is to go back to how it used to be with millions uninsured, costs rising until even dental practices couldn't afford it, people going bankrupt over medical bills, folks getting kicked off their insurance if they have a problem, ...

Republicans: Again I say, please pay very close attention to anyone who voted "yes" on this piece of crap. If you have the opportunity, vote their stupid backsides OUT in 2018. No more RINOs...you can't expect Trump to drain the swamp all on his own, you all have to fricken pay attention, as well.
You do realize that if it passes, trump will have a yuuuge signing ceremony. There is no draining the swamp on this - HE WANTS IT TO PASS SO HE CAN SIGN IT. So, you might actually be looking to get rid of the folks who vote NO on it, if your goal is to support trump at any cost.
