“Repeal or face voters wrath in the mid-terms”
I wish that were true. The congressmen don’t seem to think so.
What we need is a crisis that convinces voters that spending and borrowing by government must be reduced.
Can’t you name names. Those up in 18’ need to be pointed out.
True, most of them are very safe. They certainly dont fear us...
O care is staying, I dont see any way around that unless something REALLY big happens.

At the moment we have too many of our fellow citizens lacking the smarts to vote for change. They consistently vote for people who promise them something for nothing. Just look at all the Bernie dupes. They thought they could have social utopia just by raising taxes on the 1%. Free college and much, much more. A simple exercise in logic tells you that guys like Bernie over promise what they can deliver or underestimate who will be paying the tax bills. We need to look no further than Venezuela to see where that road can take us.
This something for nothing mentality isn’t limited by party. Apparently the moderate republicans want to be like the conservatives in the UK. Over there, the conservatives argue they can run big government programs better. A critical mass to reduce the latest and least popular big government program is not there. And the president isn’t using his bully pulpit for that purpose. Hell he wants to cement the nonsense that makes obamacare expensive. All Trump wants is to trim the edges and make the health care bill less bad imo.
