The basic problem was that Paul RINO refused to negotiate with the real conservatives . Rino ended up with a very bad bill. ( I don’t think Trump understood it!! He really needs NEWT in the white House fast!) Did you know, for example, that your bloated premiums under obamacare would not go down. Not 1 dime!! Did you know that part of that bloated premium helped cover people that don’t pay.That is not fair!! Did you know that the so called “Tax credit”. was not a tax credit at all but a transfer payment from the US treasury even if they don’t pay any taxes. That bill stunk!!
love the idea of Newt in the West Wing, I’ve been advocating that since the beginning...

The only people Paul Ryan and his like negotiate with are industry lobbyists.
That Paul Ryan is at the center of an industrialized, mass bribery ring is not in question to anyone who knows the first thing about what really goes on in DC these days.

No, Trump doesn’t need NEWT in the White House. Newt supported Rynocare, a turkey of a bill if there ever was one. This shouldn’t be surprising to those who recall Newt’s performance as Speaker in the 90’s. As some have noted here on FR, the global warming advertisement with Newt and Nancy Pelosi on the couch tells you all you need to know about Newt...
He really needs NEWT in the white House fast!>>>>>>>>>

Trump was misled by Paul Ryan on health care bill, says Newt Gingrich
Newt Gingrich said that President Trump was misled by House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) into believing that he could pay little attention to the Obamacare replacement bill, and come in at the end and sign it. He made the comments Friday to Sean Hannity on Fox News.
“I was angrier than I want to really admit publicly earlier today,” Hannity admitted, “I’m not as angry now. Now I see an opportunity. And I sense that they’re not gonna make this mistake again, please tell me they won’t do this again this way.”
“Well, first of all you have no idea whether or not they’ll make that mistake or invent a new mistake,” Gingrich offered.
“What do you do know is that Donald Trump is a very smart guy,” he continued. “He just went through an experience that wasn’t what he was told. He had been told that everything was under control, the leadership could deliver, he didn’t have to pay too much attention, come in at the very end and close the deal. And it got to be a total mess.”
Gingrich seemed to imply that Ryan deserved to lose the speakership over the debacle, saying, “I can guarantee you that if this had been one of his hotels, one of his buildings, one of his golf courses, there’d be a lot of personnel changes tonight. And I think what you’re gonna see is that he’s gonna rethink how he’s going to approach the Congress based on this outcome. Because it was so totally, utterly unacceptable.”
“At the same time I think, Paul Ryan is at a real turning point,” he continued. “Ryan’s a very smart guy, nobody should take that away from him. And he knows an immense amount about policy.”
“But he’s gotta decide, in the world of Trump,” he advised, “where you’re doing really bold, really different things, is he willing to spend the time and the energy, listening to everybody, even when he doesn’t agree with them, doesn’t think they make any sense, because only by, we used to use a model of listen, learn, help and lead. And only by doing this, and you’ve talked about it some, only by getting everybody in the dialogue, you have a chance of ultimately getting to the majority. And I think this was an example, that starting at the top, trying to run it through the system is not going to work.”
Trump allies and supporters have sought to put the blame of the repeal bill’s failure squarely on the shoulders of Ryan and the GOP leadership, while the administration has resisted doing so. Instead, the president blamed Democrats for resisting all efforts to repeal Obamacare, and said he would let it “explode” and let them come to him later.
The bill faced opposition from the Freedom Caucus of conservative Republicans Thursday, causing the vote to be postponed. But Friday when concessions were made to the right wing of the party, moderates dropped their support, dooming the bill.
