First of all, I blame Paul Ryan for hindering President Trump’s most valiant efforts to truly help the American people. I am speaking of Trump’s policy changes on ObamaCare and tax cuts for the American people. These things would help the American people more than anything Trump could do. Matt Drudge took to Twitter to blast Congress for hanging the new president “out to dry” by failing to move on ObamaCare and other agenda items. Drudge included a photo of House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-WI) in the tweets.
Drudge tweeted: “Congress hanging The Donald out to dry. Making him do everything alone! Despicable. No tax cuts, no Obamacare repeal. NOTHING,” Drudge, a Trump supporter, said on Twitter.

Rand Paul walked out of that meeting last week didn’t he???
How old is this article???
Nato did nothing when there was genocide going on in the Balkins. Kosovo/Serbia. Why bother when the U.S. is there to take care of it?
It isn't an article, it's a blog post looking for hits.
I think this is why President Trump is addressing both houses next week. He’s going to put them on notice. The Reps and Senators will have to chose between working for the elites or the voters.
Hey, I got an idea. Why don’t We the People hang Congress out to dry?
Why don’t We the People kick those worthless, money-grabbing, self-promoting bums out and elect anti-establishment, non-politician businessmen and the like who love the Constitution and love America and will bring this Ship of State under the Constitution, the Supreme Law of the Land against the feds?
We could run the House and the Senate from us here on FR...just put your application in, and go to Washington and kick the idiots out and we take over...we could do a lot better...
Something like that...
I emailed my GOP RINO congresscritter this week. Before Trump’s election she trumpeted her meaningless votes for repealing Obamacare. I asked why the repeal bill isn’t sitting on Trump’s test. I also reminded her they didn’t even have to draft a repeal bill. They passed six in the last few years. Just dust off one, change the date, and have the vote. Should have been on Trump’s desk the first day.
GOPe is back to “pretend fighting”
stuck on stupid politicians. They learned nothing.
Time to primary.
Is everybody forgetting that the Republicans are s much the enemy as are the Democrats? They will hinder a bit less vocally but they, being just as corrupt as the Democrats are financially invested in all these things that Trump wants to get rid of. They may consent to rename the ACA but they are not going to jeopardize the lucrative relationships they have acquired with the system. If reform has to go through Congress there will be no reform, or the reform will be to make the system more profitable to the elite.
There choice was made within hours of taking their seats following their elections. Or before that, even.
I will say it again, OBAMACARE WILL NEVER BE REPEALED in any way, shape or fashion.
There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:
Executive Order
1. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.
2. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Forces, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.
Sign these 2 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days. NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???
I thought it was up to Pence to push this stuff through. That is supposedly why he was picked. He should of picked Palin at least we would have had a conservative VP not a Ryan clone.
Trump has been president for just over a full week
You are correct, that event happened on the 15th, last Wednesday.
I have noticed the past few days, because the ‘very fake news’ isn’t getting up to the second information anymore, they are reverting back to old news, example this article, trying to make it sound like it just happened...
I have caught a few like that while reading other sites...
Interesting. Thanks for that info. I will keep an eye open to see if I see the same.
One thing the GOPe types don’t seem to understand is that we’re NOT going to blame Trump for the GOPe holding up his agenda - we will blame the GOPe, particularly at Primary time.
This idea of the NeverTrumpers that, if they paralyze Trump in Congress, we’ll turn against Trump, and therefore allow them to move in for the kill (i.e., impeachment), WILL NOT WORK. If Trump is making a good-faith effort on his agenda, we will STICK WITH HIM - and he is doing just that.
We voters of VA-7 showed the rest of the country how to Cantorize your weasel.
Unfortunately none of you followed our lead.
I really expected many more districts to throw out their weasels after we took down the Majority Leader.
And Rand explained he walked out because he had another meeting scheduled
