The title is a ridiculous question.

OF COURSE the Republicans in Congress cannot govern. They are corrupt and duplicitous hypocrites, all of whom have been elected within the last 10 years by lying to their voters.

One showboat vote after another, sometimes interspersed with completely caving to whatever the Democrats wanted.

Why would ANYONE now expect them to have the skill or integrity to now actually govern?

The country is better off with a group of Republicans who can’t govern than it is with a group of DemonicRATS who can.

Well, they can govern, just not Constitutionally. They have no real interest in doing so. It doesn’t pay.

Did they really make that promise? Their actions seemed to say they liked ACA?

How were they a ten year opposition party? 2006 to 2010 is not ten years.

“Opposition” party my eye. They gave Dems practically everything they wanted. They helped enable and facilitate the steady march of culture and government to the left.

I cannot and will not speak for you. That would be both stupid and arrogant (I leave that for the Dems and RINOs we have in such great abundance in the swamp).

I did NOT vote to replace Obamacare.

I voted to REPEAL Obamacare.

Geesh, this was just the House. What do you think would have happened with that Health care bill once it hit the Senate? We are relying on people like McCain, Graham, and a score of other treacherous RINOs to cooperate.

The problem that we always have is that the GOP does not want to work for The People.

These sold out bozos don’t want to do their jobs. They only want to suck up as many bribes as they can without exploding

The question is amiss...
“Can Republicans govern if they can’t keep a promise they’ve made for 7 years?”

I do not want, nor need the GOP or the Federal Government to “Govern” me PERIOD and this is the problem so many have they accept they need to be Govern by things of this World vice Governing themselves by God Order... Yep now were getting to the root of the problem...

God Bless

Trump screwed everything up by winning.

The people who put him in the White House are not impressed by the kabuki theatre of the GOP.

The killer fact came last September when Ryan totally rolled over for Obama,giving Obama more money than he asked for in the budget, including Planned Parenthood and all the global warming scams. Ryan should have been replaced immediately after the election.

It’s long past the time to tell this Congressional assemblage of totally useless republican losers to either tow the line or blow, and that’s all she wrote. Nothing else will do. They can be removed and replaced like spark plugs, and their pensions voided as well. Let them work until they die, which is what they want us to do, to keep their paychecks coming. Rotten lying scumbag bastards!

I think whether this health care debacle really damages the Republicans in Congress and the president depends if they can get a good tax bill passed without a civil war within the party. If they get back on track, then this most recent failure will fade in memory. If this was the start of the new normal and they prove incapable of accomplishing anything together, then they may be handing the country back to the leftists on a silver platter before long.

I’ve not seen Republicans ‘govern’ in my lifetime. Why would they start now?

Hence, why we now have President Trump!

the rino romneybot uniparty leadership never had any intention of following thru on the promise. the promise was leverage to get us to keep voting them back to dc.

Fair question, and similar to what Texas Eagle stated, even at their most incompetent, they are better than commie rats. Barely.
