The Ryan bill is not what I want, but ripping out the mandatory minimum coverage requirements would be a huge plus over the current system. Obamacare will have to be dismantled in several steps - it is not going to happen in one bill, the votes just are not there for it.

>>>ACA. Everyone claims they don’t won’t it, but they will fight to the death to save it.

They just want to protect Obama’s legacy.

Of course they don’t have the votes. Where the hell did Ryan ever get the idea that Republicans should pass an Obamacare-lite bill? We’ve been protesting against Obamacare ever since he brought it up and clamoring and voting for Republicans to REPEAL it! If Ryan doesn’t want top put up a clean repeal bill and or feels he can’t push one through, then he should resign and let a conservative take over!

He made many, many promises about what he would do with healthcare that are not coming to pass.

"We barely tried to repeal ACA, so now we are doing the only sensible thing and giving up." - Spicer

Time for the "No Child Left Behind" of the Trump administration and naming things after Democrat presidents.

Back it up? He promised a full repeal and replace, he promised it would be the first thing he did, now he’s tethered himself to this piece of sh*t bill and is going to walk away when it doesn’t pass today and we’re stuck with Obummercare.

Exactly. Vote to repeal with a Jan 1st dieoff period. Then let the rats and states wedded to it scream Killer Comet while saner people and better accountants and salesmen work on how to help the needy while working people look forward to relief

It’ll never happen because too many Congressman don’t WANT it repealed. They just want us to think they do. It’s hear to stay. The only good thing is, it’s OBAMAcare. So when it does collapse of its own weight, history will know who to blame. Like Slow Joe Said: “This is f^ckin huge”

That’s good to hear. Thanks for posting. Most don’t have the time to trace sources and when it comes from CNN it’s a better than even bet they are lying or distorting.

It doesn’t change the fact that Ryan does indeed have plenty of votes, just not for the bill be slapped together.

AMEN!!!

It didn't have the votes yesterday, it isn't going to have the votes today...

RINO RYAN has failed President Trump and the American People AGAIN...he is an Amnesty, globalist and is getting paid by Koch Brothers, George Soros and other to be so...

This was to put a dent into President Trump and if the people in the House don't remove RINO RYAN then they all need to be voted out of office!!!

They have one chance to repeal this thing.

Nonsense. The House could draft a new bill and pass it to the Senate tomorrow. Just because this bill is dead doesn't mean the issue is dead.

If the bill is indeed dead. We'll see.
