I had a wise boss who told me, “If you want to replace a sacred cow anything, just force people to use it to the letter. Don’t allow any workarounds. Trust me, it will quickly be changed by the very people who wouldn’t let you touch it now.”

My prediction is Ryan and McConnell will bail it out with funding. What can stop them?

DON’T replace unconstitutional ACA AKA Government healthcare with more unconstitutional government healthcare. The answser is NO GOVERNMENT healthcare AKA THE FREE MARKET!!!!

The voluntary cooperation directly between patients and doctors in the marketplace free from government interference is the best healthcare system in the world which America had until the feds started unconstitutionally screwing it up in the 60’s.

KICK THE POLITICIANS OUT OF HEALTHCARE. They don’t care about your health, only their political careers.

Yep! And don’t allow the Congressional RINOs to lift a single finger to moderate the death spiral!

A big mistake and we will pay for it, possibly Big Time. Killing it now and letting it die over the two year grace period would force a solution in 2019. Right now we are not going to have a failed Obamacare, we are going to have a patched and subsidized Obamacare FOREVER.

I’ve asked 50 times: what does Trump want out of this bill? So far, I know that it will be terrific and cover everybody.

How does he propose doing that?

What are the guiding principles here?

I’ve said all along to make the democrats want to fix it.

Tell Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi that they need to fix obamacare. And they need to do so without it adding more debt to taxpayers.

Put the monkey on their backs. Fix it!!!

“We're not going to own it. I'm not going to own it. I can tell you the Republicans are not going to own it."

They already own it. Obamacare failure may be inevitable but the failure will happen on their watch.

"We'll let ObamaCare fail, and then the Democrats are going to come to us."

He can't seriously believe that.

The President’s mistake was in trusting Turtle McConnell to get the job done. Ryan too, a loser trying to pretend he’s a leader. You ask me, we need to primary all the squishes. Give President Trump a Congress that will actually stand up for Conservative values!

Hello?
I’ve been saying this for years.
Got into quite a bit of trouble saying it here too.

in his first state of the union speech, trump said that obamacare wouldn’t be addressed until late 2017 or early 2018, so i assumed that his intent was for the death spiral to do its work.

it was that piece of shit Paul Ryan that decided to push Hillary’s insurance company fix-it bill. Ryan was trying to undermine trump by doing that. Ryan figured it was no-win for trump, because the bill did NOT repeal obamacare and made it MORE expensive for trump’s core supporters should the bill have passed, and if the bill failed, Ryan figured trump would be blamed, not Congress.

Ryan was wrong: this whole thing blew up in the faces of the GOPe. No one is blaming trump, and everyone is blaming Congress, and Ryan’s “leadership” has been shown to be worse than useless.

I’m glad to see the situation reverting to the situation that trump originally stated in his SOTU speech. (My guess is that trump knew this was going to happen and he deliberately gave Ryan and McConnell enough rope to hang themselves with.)

Let it die. Give states waivers to do their own thing. Don’t enforce the penalty. No subsides for insurance companies.

I don’t know what is more pathetic. That we were and are stuck with this pathetic Obama care, or that our feckless and disgusting repukelicants; can’t put anything together to rid us of it.

Trump had to try...either to eliminate it or change it to user-friendly. He campaigned on it. He promised it. And now, he’s made a tremendous effort in the face of great odds (both Democrat and Republican).

Now, he just needs to let it die the unholy death it was meant to have....and start fresh.

After listening to Jay Sekulow and his panel today, I learned a lot about the bill of goods that conservatives like, Rand Paul, Mike Lee, etc, have been selling us.

They said that the outright “repeal” that they are always advocating isn’t a repeal at all.

Obamacare would still remain on the books and be the law of the land for the foreseeable future. (They said about 2 years.)

So those of you here who think these conservatives are living up to their promise to repeal Obama care, they are not.

As Jay, Jordan, and the panel pointed out, they are not being completely honest with the American people.

They said that the only way to have undone much of the laws of Obamacare, would have been to pass the Senate bill, which would have overridden the current law.

I got quite an education on Obamacare today, and I learned that there is no such thing as an outright repeal of this crap.
