As someone who was not an early Trump supporter but saw enough of him up close over the years to understand how he operates, I can guarantee tha he had no interest in seeing Ryan’s bill passed despite all of his public posturing.
It scares me to see how the vast majority thinks that Trump cares what the press says about him or what rinos think of him. Why do people think Trump trusts Ryan who is not only an outspoken never trumper but a guy who pushed his way into the speaker position and pretends he is competent enough to hold that spot
Trump can run circles around Ryan. Why shouldn’t he do so? Trump could not strong arm his way on repealing Obamacare. He’s not going to rule like an obama type dictator and hate the part of the electorate that didn’t vote for him. But he can treat Ryan as the enemy. He doesn’t work for Ryan.
Why do people look at this as a final defeat? Can’t it be a first step in a long process?
If I were Trump I would send tge Hillary loving Ryan on a chase to get something done which he should have been doing but which he had not even thought of doing so he could fail and get himself put into a much less powerful position. That would be just a first step
But people are suing poor Trump. He doesnt understand politics he’ll learn.
People forget Trump runs circles around the press
The impatience is weird to watch. Trump is just starting I would think. This was nothing in the process of getting rid of Obamacare which BTW a lot of people like
I guess people want trump to be their dictator. He’s not going to be.
Trump said the other day “I like rand Paul. I like his smart ideas”. He. Ever said that about Paul Ryan I don’t think.
So why would Trump go along with this? I don’t get it. Trump hates losing so how does this fulfill his long game? If we see the same thing with taxes (something Ryan seems to be setting up for) then I know it will be a BIG LOSE for Trump - and us.
So far I see this more of an indictment of Ryan’s leadership than Trump just like it wasn’t Obama who got Obamacare passed, it was Reid and Pelosi and their bag of dirty tricks.
Yeah, The Donald sure as hell was pushing Ryancare hard and sang high praises to Ryan non-stop. I hope this was all a ruse.
Well, if he is pro-business, then he would want the general concent to fail because the status quo charges an increase for full-time employees.
“I can guarantee tha he had no interest in seeing Ryan’s bill passed despite all of his public posturing.”
