I don't buy this excuse. I think they're pissed that Meadows negotiated a deal to get repeal through. Ryan wanted his plan or nothing to pass the house. So they're going to let the CBO kill it, or call another vote with choreographed failure.

I continue to believe Ryan and McConnell are out to sabotage the Trump presidency and continue the Establishment’s agenda which is the same as the Democrat’s agenda. Total government control.

Doesn’t matter.

Not sure how they can on tax matters, but...
Senate Repubs said they will start from scratch.

Everything that happens inside the Beltway is designed to delay and obfuscate; the NWO crowd's game plan is to run out the clock on President Trump's term.

The political version of the old college basketball 4-corner offense.

Is he waiting for the impeachment so they can all go back to normal?

Had Hillary won the election, I have very little doubt that Paul Ryan would have passed many “bipartisan” bills by this point and sent them off to the Senate, where John McCain would have championed their passage to play statesman with his good pal Hillary.

The fact is, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and the rest never thought for one single solitary moment that Donald Trump would win. They never contemplated they would find themselves in the position they are in. They had already rehearsed their lines (”with a democrat in the White House, there’s only so much we can do”) and have very little cover for their lust to grow and bloat government all the more.

That’s why they are sitting back and letting the media create a story of collusion and corruption without any facts to back it up.

No. It’s patently true.
...If the House wants to have the opportunity to make changes to to it to align it with the Rules.
Otherwise those changes will be left solely up to the Senate EINOs.
House is slightly less RINO.

Though it’s all ‘iffy’ this is no big deal.

Paul Ryan has spent his entire life in politics and it’s time for this slick, perverse man to go home.

This article seems like a lot of nonsense. Before the House even voted on the AHCA the Senate leadership announced that it would be drafting its own bill rather than amending the House bill.

The Senate announced they would not use the House bill.

They are developing their own.

This is a waste of our time.

The House simply has to wait to see what the Senate comes up with. Then they will have to vote again.

My question is, how low is it going to take Ted’s team to come up with something?

Soon I hope...

I don’t trust Ryan at all.

He’s likely letting CBO use static scoring rather than dynamic scoring.

All of CBO’s spreadsheet macros could run on a spreadsheet in the White House or in the Speaker’s office. I would change this to make it so.
