White House restarts talks with Freedom Caucus to repeal Obamacare, NYT reports

[Kickass Conservative]

But, but they said it was dead. LOL

Art if the Deal?

Walk out the Door and they chase you before you get the Elevator Lobby. It worked when Trump was trying to renegotiate the Loan on his Yacht.

The Bank refused so he threw the keys on the Table and told the Bank they owned it. What they didn’t know is that he threw his Car Keys on the Table.

I am beginning to think that Trump saying he would work with the Democrats to get something done might have lighted a fire under the Republicans.

Unfortunately, the RINO Republicans aren’t there yet. I would prefer to see the Freedom Caucus follow them into the Room, not lead the way.

Just another wait and see situation. Talk and NYT Articles are cheap.

>>>Mo Brooks submits no-nonsense bill to repeal Obamacare :) http://www.catholic.org/news/politics/story.php?id=74243<<<

Put it to a Vote Ryan.

I want to see who our Enemies really are.

Excluding premiums from taxes is still bad policy, so at best that should be synced with a fairly quick repeal for all tax wxemptuons on healthcare costs.

But the quislings are too sniveling and bought off by the insurance companies to do what is right and explain to thw piblic why it is needed.

I’m also closer to winning the lottery than I ever have been before.

Unless I luck out, and the odd, offhand, occasional payments I make into tax upon the mathematically challenged (aka -stupid tax) pays off first, in which case I will try to remember all you little (and smarter) people.

Ryan needs to be ousted as speaker.

Oh I guess President Trump does know what side of the toast has the butter on it. He better know who put him in office.

You sound very angry. It might help you to regain some perspective if you remember many of the "true" conservatives were in the #NeverTrump camp.

It also may help you regain some peace if you remember that President Trump is dedicated to doing what is best for the American people--in a way you may like sometimes, and at other times not so much.

Maybe I’m displaying my ignorance, but why not just put a simple bill up repealing the individual mandate and defunding Planned Parenthood, and then respond to the fallout as it comes?

[upchuck]

They should be looking hard at AL Rep. Mo Brook’s bill.

The bill in a nutshell: “Effective as of Dec. 31, 2017, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is repealed, and the provisions of law amended or repealed by such Act are restored or revived as if such Act had not been enacted.”

Gives them till the end of the year (plenty of time, IMHO) to come up with a replacement. Hopefully the replacement will have minimal government involvement in our healthcare.

The BIGGEST DIE HARD #NEVER TRUMPER was AND STILL IS Ryan!!!! I NEVER heard Louie Gomert, or Jim Jordan EVER badmouth our POTUS, I also NEVER heard Rand Paul badmouth our POTUS after he recieved the nomination!!! LYIN RYAN on the other hand could NOT WAIT to get to a microphone to TRASH HIM!!!!

[WildHighlander57]

And that bill is the legislation to back up this EO:

It's already written. It's in committee. It's two pages long. All it requires is release to the floor for a vote. Thank you, Mo Brooks : http://www.al.com/news/huntsville/index.ssf/2017/03/rep_mo_brooks_files_bill_to_re.html

Repeal and replace with something looking like a free market, now, not after some future election.

How about just repeal? All the Republicans want that, at least they did last year. So pass what they can agree on...and agree to disagree on any kind of replacement?

[drewh]

sounds like a fair deal to me! :) do exactly what was promised on the campaign trail

[DoodleDawg]

I hope he’s saying something along the lines of, “You write it then, and make it something the moderates will also agree to.”

LOL! If they do that then the Freedom Caucus won't agree to it.

[DoodleDawg]

That way the Democrats have to work with the Republicans on the replacement.

Why?

What happened to his negotiations with the Democrats, hmmmm?

I bet they told him to suck an egg. He will get no help from the Rats.

“many of the “true” conservatives were in the #NeverTrump camp.”

I guess it depends upon what “true” is. To me, most of the #NeverTrump crowd were establishment Republicans (Bush and McCain) and those who depended on the big donors contributing to their think tanks ,foundations or advertisements on their shows. The only ones I considered “true” conservative in the #neverTrump crowd were a few one issue free traders and evangelical leaders.

To the free traders, I would say there is a difference between free trade and fair trade. For the evangelical leader, I would suggest you really should reconsider your past support for Bush if you supported him. Maybe you don’t feel comfortable voting for anyone and I can understand that.

I would also replace “many” with “some”.

Wonder who blinked?

Pssst. Talks were never “stalled.” All fake news, trying to separate Trump from conservatives, and many here bought it.
