I don't understand why the Republicans are so eager to own Obamacare. Just repeat it and be done with it.
Repeat it? Freudian slip?
Trump promised excellent healthcare for all that the government would pay for. If he just repeals it he's breaking his promise to the people. And trump would never do that!
Senators Mike Lee and Jerry Moran have announced that they will not support Trumpcare at this time. Granted, it's a moving target, and they might be able to buy off enough people like they are trying to do with Lisa Murkowski, but I think it's just as likely that now that the dam has been broken, more GOP Senators will also break.
Let's call it what it is, "Wealthcare/Trumpcare". This isn't about healthcare/health-insurance, it's about reducing taxes on the rich.
Here's an idea, let's go back to the world of US healthcare before the ACA. Underwriting, recessions, bogus health "insurance". The brain-dead deplorables will be happy, until they might realize that their health "insurance" is just a scam.
What happened to the great plan Trump promised during his campaign? It was going to be so easy.

Y'know... if he would have actually done any effort at all to get the republicans to come up with something that even remotely resembled what he campaigned for... and then, would have stood by his word and called it the piece of excrement that it is... he might have garnered a bit of... well, not respect, because he is truly not worthy of much in the way of respect... but, grudging admission that when it came to actually backing up his word to make things better, that he actually tried.
But, no. He didn't. He just wants the bill passed so that he can sign it. He could give a s**t less what is in it. He could give a s**t less that it does the opposite of what he said he would do to make America... well, you know. It was just a campaign slogan. So disappointing.

Not yet Trumpcare, he hasn't approved any of the bills in Congress.
