The Uniparty eunuchs wanted to preserve Obamacare, not repeal it.
They thought if they rearranged it a little, we would be mollified.
Then they could hang it around Trumps neck and make sure he was not re-elected when it failed and get back to business as usual, importing cheap labor and selling out America.
I suspect you are correct here. My congressman was on the radio yesterday morning and he said that he wouldn't vote for it because there was no premium savings for we the people. It just shifted the same excessive costs around but did not lower the price.
