Budget reconciliation is how it passed.
Budget reconciliation is how it will be repealed.
It’s gone!!!!!!!!!!
Kill the filibuster, budget reconciliation.
Find a way to get it done, or go home.
We are not interest in their excuses.
Wield the power we gave them, or lose it.
You may be right, unless McConnell has the guts to use Reid’s tactics against the Dhimmicraps. Since they passed 0bamacare on reconciliation (bypassing the filibuster), we can repeal it on reconciliation — if Ditch has the guts to do it.
Otherwise, it’s likely that the GOP majority will increase after 2018, as there are 24 Dhimmicrap seats up and 10 Republican seats.
It’s kinda like eating lunch....a bite, then another bite...then another....and pretty soon....It’s all gone!!
Obamacare won’t last 6 more months. Trump gets things done.
Lots of Democrat senators up for reelection in 2018. I’m guessing they might be more cooperative than you think.
He said day one, so I doubt his first act will be to break his promise.
If not done by 2018 Trump will be primaried by others saying they can “Repeal Obamcare” even though their allies are probably stopping Trump from repealing it
If they kill the filibuster it can be done
The only way is to repeal it period, with the nuclear option (no 60 vote cloture requirement).
If they want to “replace” it, do it separately.
Flat out repealing it will eliminate the hub-bub over how to replace it that you mention.
But McConnell won’t go for it. Trump is going to have to beat him up.
If the current group wanted to repeal it they could have as outlined above. The “replace” is a diversion. Adding that ensures it never changes.
The Democrats in congress will also vote to repeal ObamaCare, voters are demanding it be killed and replaced.
Forbes said this.
Under President Trump, Repealing & Replacing Obamacare Will Be Harder Than It Looks
All Trump has to do is issue an EO forbidding the IRS from taking action on penalties on those that refuse to buy the crap, and it will fully collapse of its own weight.
Congress passes the laws, but POTUS enforces, or chooses not to enforce them, up to, and including pardons.
Obama has chooses to ignore the constitution plenty of times.
Kill it January 20th.
Stop the Obamacare coverage immediately.
Watch the cost of of health insurance premiums fall, fall, fall!
That’s what Trump will do!!!
We should not start the reversal of the last 8 years of oppression with talk of “perilously thin margins” and likelihoods and all that.
There are very simple things that could be done instantly. Allow US-wide plans to compete at the US level, not just by states. Further, these government MANDATES about acceptable plans in tiers is horseshit. Let people buy what they need and stop mandating that the plans must all cover birth control, abortion payments and a whole host of other high-risk, immoral lifestyles simply because the government once endorsed them.
Lots of ways to reform Medicare and Medicare coverages and payments also.
We don’t have to tippy-toe around anybody. Get it done.
All President Trump has to do is declare universal amnesty from Obamacare for all current and future US citizens.
Have you learned nothing about Trump? Holy cow.
Yes, you are missing that the dynamic has been turned on its head.
Beyond the RINOs not wanting to explain to constituents why they left the massive increases and penalties intact (which are necessary to keep the thing barely afloat), you make the big mistake of assuming that Democrats will be a monumental block. They answer to their constituents as well, and the power structure for the Democrats will also be turned on ts head. New blood in Democrat leadership will be looking to make their mark, but they won’t be as powerful as the old structure, and a Democrats in States that don’t like Obamacare will be able to exert independence.
The dynamic has entirely changed - that is what you are missing. Obamacare is gone.
