Trump ran on ‘repeal and replace.’
I feel like I’m in the Twilight Zone lately. I’m no Ryan fan, but this is what Trump said he was going to do.
This wasn’t repeal and replace. It was a tweak that still left the Feds in the role of massive overregulation and high costs. Repeal is repeal and replace is with a different free market solution.
Yes, that statement was heard by many. Most were shouting with joy so loudly they failed to understand what the last part of the sentence implied.
HOWEVER, DJT also has told US (you, me, others) that he will be looking out for US and we could trust him to do so. HE WOULD NOT FAIL US. I’m holding him to that...period.
Meanwhile, we wait to see his WONDERFUL replacement bill after we have a peek and a pass on the REPEAL bill. He was wrong to trust Ryan, Pence was wrong to insist he do so; if, in fact, he actually did.
