I don’t expect more from him. I’m pretty sure in 2016 he said he was going to do this.

Trump is best at grandiose plans and blaming other people for his failures.

Which is fine — maybe other people are the reason he couldn’t do anything, but “I’m not able to get anything done because I can’t get past the opposition” isn’t really in the end better than “I just didn’t care to bother”.

One day, maybe we will care enough to actually accomplish things that we will elect someone who has a proven record of accomplishing things despite opposition.

But more often, we just hate on people who manage to get things done.

ObamaCare will eventually become a “Third Rail”, like Social Security if this isn’t nipped in the bud.

At least I have confidence that Trump would actually sign legislation that would replace Obamacare if it were put before him (which it never will be)

W Bush and the RINO had complete control over numerous supreme court judges and time and time again picked RINO who undermined conservatives.

I will forever be indebted to Trump for at least picking real conservatives for the Supreme Court.

“The opposition” being the reason a politician can’t get what he wants done works in our favor pretty often, too. Think if the likes of Obama and Biden got everything they wanted without opposition......

Let’s see:

Option 1

Produce a new plan that could/would be better, with lower costs…..while still NOT getting rod of the old, inefficient, more costly plan.

So, then you have the taxpayer paying for two plans.

Option 2

Work with Congress to scrap the inefficient and wasteful old plan. Save the money and then present the new plan that might be better.

Hmmmmm…..are we forgetting about members of Congress campaigning in repealing the AHA and then them stabbing us all in the back when they voted against repealing the AHA?
