an open call for divesting from conservatism

What is your "conservatism"? Conservatism is Mark Levin on the radio ranting about Trump and "RyanCare" while misleading his viewers about what's actually in the bill, and attempting to deceive them into believing that the House vote was the end all and be all that must be opposed at the cost of the American people because "muh conservative purity." Conservatism is Ben Shapiro calling for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians but then saying Trump is unethical to want to limit immigration from Muslim countries.

What's needed is genuine patriotism, not ideological misfits who suffer from the same utopian style thinking as the liberals. Note your responses, which are almost identical to any liberal on the internet who just can't BELIEVE that there can be another way to look at things.

I think the failure of the bill is a great first step toward replacing RYAN in the House.

Your proclamations are much more persuasive in boldface and all-caps. Well played.

Give the Medicaid money to the states to cover those that truly need it, and that could cover someone that lost their job through no fault of their own and couldn’t afford COBRA, etc.

Privatize it.

Make them pay something for it, all the way up to full-premium....based on their ability to pay.

Everyone has a co-pay.

That is total and complete bull shit and you know it. Trump has endorsed this bill inside and out. Trump has said this is a great bill and has threatened to primary those who vote against it. I would say that makes this as much Trump’s bill as Ryan. So Trump gave him cover? Sounds like they’re partners to me. Call a spade a spade.

You have never been in any negotiation ever in your entire life. Not once. Nothing. You have never bargained, ever. You are completely devoid of any experience whatsoever in the arena of negotiation. Not only that, you do not even know the definitions of the words 'negotiate' or 'bargain'. In fact, you do not speak the English language whatsoever. Further, you have never even been born. You are not alive. You never have been. You are merely some dust in between stars, hoping beyond hope to be captured by some gravity well that turns out to be a viable planet so you can eventually become some vegetation, then be digested by a living organism, then become part of an embryo, so you can finally become born. But the odds are it will be a fishlike unintelligent alien on a high-gravity world near a star that is about to go supernova.

Sorry about your luck.

This is the type of uncontrolled rant when you don’t have a clue as to how to substantially respond. Trump and Ryan blew this one, but Trump will learn. Politics is not like the business world and will never be like the business world.

Be quiet, space dust. Find a planet to settle on, then become vegetation.

You’re funny. The bottom line has not changed. I made a solid, substantive and cogent post. You don’t even attempt to refute it with a thoughtful and cogent post, which means you can’t do so. I easily win the debate.

I don't understand how you expect to do it without having the bill being passed unscathed by the Senate, and sent to the President.

Machine guns and hand grenades?

Perhaps you can explain the whole process to me.

No, you have not won. You just name call because you don't have the ability to refute my post. I learned sometime ago, that those who name call and can't respond to a substantive post with like substantive meaning, can't do so. Often, you lack the ability or it's not possible because the argument is solid.

So again, Trump endorsed Paul Ryan's health care bill. Not once, not twice, but multiple times and he did so heartily. In fact, he threatened those that opposed the Ryan/Trump health care bill (which of course, nothing happened - there were too many). The Ryan/Trump health care bill did not repeal Obamacare, nor deal with marketplace issues. It was so flawed and non market based that premiums would still skyrocket in the next few years. It was a poorly thought out bill and it was kept hidden up until a few weeks ago that Ryan/Trump thought they could just ram it through Congress, but it was not to happen.

This is what Trump wanted to pass and Trump promoted, endorsed, fought for and bragged about ("It's a great bill" - "It's a fantastic bill"). This is the bill that Trump brought scores of House members to the White House to twist their arms to vote for. The Ryan/Trump bill failed.

You didn't learn enough, space dust.

Sometimes we just don't have the time.

“I don’t understand how you expect to do it without having the bill being passed unscathed by the Senate, and sent to the President.”

Ok so two times in a row, you obviously having a had time with common sense.

“REPEAL Period!” mean ALL BRANCHs vote to REPEAL Period.

Its not Complicated and its not trickery its Simple as REPEAL Period! for it is Not a Power of the Federal Government to begin with. Your more than welcome to put your faith in others who have no clue buy I Do Not Consent to it!

God Bless

No need for you to be an A-hole.

"Common sense" tells me that may-well not happen.

It also tells me that only one "branch" votes...that branch being Congress.

Common sense also tells me, anyone using CNN as an information source has no credibility.
