You can also bet he doesn’t get re-elected without conservatives supporting him. You can book that too.

“You can also bet he doesn’t get re-elected without conservatives supporting him.”

So I guess he’s only as good as the last thing he did for you,right?...everything he has done so far has been right in your sweetspot.

And by the way...if you are talking about conservatives, he will do just fine with them in 4 years... but he won’t need the Freedom Caucus. They just made sure of that.

He won Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Iowa and Wisconsin with Reagan Democrats NOT the Freedom Caucus.

The Freedom Caucus is the leading edge of the phenomenon that put Trump into office.

I don’t know what your intentions are but if you think you’re going to generate anti-Freedom Caucus sentiment here, you’ve got a screw loose.

I think the message was don't blame the GOP for what is now the healthcare system
Blame the democrats
They are busy spiking the football
While the football is deflating
A lot more Americans are going to have to get burned by obamacare before anything happens
Meanwhile it is obamacare and the democrats still,own it and they have to answer for it
I think trump sees a day ahead when the democrats will be secretly begging him for help

Freedom Caucus voters brought Trump to the party, and voted for him, in droves. Crossover Dems helped him get over the finish line.

If they were smart, they would have hoped for a Trump fix to healthcare but, like you say, more Americans soon will be screaming about the costs and until someone changes the plan...

it will still be called ObamaCare!!

Yep. Many of us were talking about this very thing before the vote
was cancelled.

Trump will now be forced to work with Democrats on fixing Obamacare.
Which, of course, will include funding.

“Freedom Caucus voters brought Trump to the party”

Didn’t the Freedom Caucus support Ted Cruz in the primaries?

Not sure about the primaries...I was talking about the election party.

I think members were divided in the primary? Again, not sure.

“I was talking about the election party.”

I’m sure they helped a lot in North Carolina.

“What does Conservative Treehouse say?”

This is part of it:

“Moving forward, any tax legislation will now have to keep the $1 to $2 trillion ObamaCare spending in place; ultimately meaning far less room for comprehensive tax reform. Again, the intransigent CONservative caucus just dealt a blow to tax cuts – this is “disappointing” to the Trump economic agenda and will ultimately mean lesser job growth.”

Bingo.
