For those who keep saying the GOP has done nothing about Obamacare with their majority, check out the numbers.

The GOP voted 52 times to repeal Obamacare, Obama said no. https://t.co/9M6OB7l5Ro

They tried to repeal Obama’s crap law 52 times … which is likely 52 times more than most naysayers realize. It’s easy to sit back and complain that the GOP doesn’t do enough, especially when you aren’t able to see the numbers. Forget the fact that Obama would veto anything they put in front of him …

They voted to repeal when they knew damn well there was no chance Barry would sign it. They won’t do that today. They were never serious, but merely grandstanding.

I am not amused at those liars. They should pass one of the many repeal bills they pretended to support, and President Trump should then sign it. If they want a replacement, debate that once the existing law is repealed.

Sensible people would not continue in an abusive dating relationship “just until we have a new relationship, with marriage plans, and an agreement on how many children to have”. Repealing Obamacare is no different. This is a bad law. It’s harmful to job creation. It’s harmful to the people forced to buy insurance that costs too much for what they get. It’s harmful to the country to require that people be over-insured with coverage they don’t want. The law has to die, and we don’t need a replacement plan before we repeal it.

Among other things, economic freedom is a huge improvement over the current Obamacare constraints, so straight repeal is a big win. Also, removing democrat leverage is a good strategy before debating replacement.

All posturing. Safe votes to gull the masses. They knew there was zero chance to push a repeal past Obama. Let’s see what they do now that they actually have the power to accomplish it. I predict the crickets will be dying from exhaustion while we wait. And that was the strategic calculation by the bolsheviks when they went scorched earth to pass it in the first place - the GOP NEVER roll back the advance of the the progressive totalitarian state.

What is suspicious is that they "tried" so many times to repeal it in the past, and now, with the power in their hands, they choke. My sense is that they were NEVER serious, because they knew Obama had their back and wouldn't sign a repeal, and the fact that there is nothing yet on President Trump's desk for him to sign supports my suspicions. They are worried about a "backlash." Squishes deliberately ignore that President Trump was elected in part BECAUSE of the "backlash."

I can’t watch Katie. If/when she stops saying “adminishtration” instead of “administration” I’ll take another look. It’s so distracting I can’t hear what she’s talking about.

They tried to repeal Obama’s crap law 52 times

Because they knew they would NEVER SUCCEED, now that there is a Chance of Success there is no way in hell they will attempt a repeal.

There is ONLY ONE WAY to get Obamacare Repealed, by executive order:

1.All Federal Waivers to the Affordable Care Act are hereby repealed

2. All Federal Employees shall enroll in and purchase their own Private and Family Health Insurance fr4om the affordable care exchange in the State they legally reside.

These 2 orders will GUARANTEE a Repeal within 30 days.

Sure they voted to repeal it when they knew it would be vetoed.

Not so much now.

The Uniparty likes Obamacare.

They were pretending, Katie.

That’s what the GOP does.

That’s all the GOP does.

Oh no. Katie just asked questions in the Trump-Netanyahu Press Conference. Again... “adminishtration”.

Actually, most of the Fox millennial chick pundits do that. I think it’s a current-day “valley girl” thing.
