"I am concerned about Leader McConnell's comments to apparently some of my Republican colleagues — 'Don't worry about some of the Medicaid reforms, those are scheduled so far in the future they'll never take effect,'"

Johnson is either stupid or disingenuous.

McConnell is just stating the obvious. If Johnson can't figure out on his own that cuts scheduled to take place in 4 years may never happen he should probably find a new line of work.

If Trump had any understanding of the healthcare/insurance system, he could have been out there selling repeal to the American people. Instead we get “everyone will be covered”, “the bill will be great, the best bill”, “you’ll see, it’ll be great!”, “everyone will be taken care of.” The man is clueless. Leadership is what we need, and that should be coming from the prez.

Correction, Schumer IS *itch McConnell’s friend. They are two peas in a pod - happily SCREWING America and Republicans who voted for these pigs.

We need a new Party - like maybe the Conservative-Libertarian Party, or the Conservative-Populist-Libertarian Party.

The GOP must DIE as a party - the sooner the better. Their Congressmen are all gutless frauds.

The next time I get a solicitation for a contribution from them, I will tell them graphically where they can put it.

Shucks, are you kidding me. Mitch is totally in bed with Chuck Schumer. They are both “Pajama Boys”, screwing the average American Joe & Jane & family!!!

60 of 60 Democrats voted Ocare.

Only 3 of 52 Republicans voted Ocare.

Elect more Republicans!

Designated Losers know how to lose.

There is no "win" in this situation. The candy has already been given to the baby and anybody trying to take it away is going to be tarred and feathered by the Democrats and the leftist MSM as heartless monsters. Obamacare is well on its way to collapse and Obama and the Democrats are still tagged with responsibility for it. All the Republican's have to do to come out of this smelling less like crap than the Democrats is keep their hands off of it.

Not good for John-Q-Public (who is not exactly blameless in this fiasco either) but not a bad situation for the Repubs to be in as once the chaos reigns for a while they may have a chance to get a few free market reforms implemented. That is when their "losers know how to lose" nature will come to the fore.

We need a Freedom Caucus in the senate. All repubs must belong to it or it or they walk.

McConnell colludes with the crooked Democrats. Paul Ryan does, too. They like their swamp and want to keep their swamp.

You got it! The Chamber of Crony Commerce and the big insurance companies don’t want to compete so their representatives in the Congress did their bidding and essentially told them, screw the people, we own you, vote accordingly slave. Mitch and the rest of the liberal Republicans bleated yes master and bent over in full compliance.

This will not end well for the Democrats, Republicans or even worse for the country. Trump will be the only beneficiary.

I do not think they understand the anger brewing within the GOP grassroots/base and within the voters who voted Trump into office. If this crap continues, I see a lot of senators being primaried out of contention, via Eric Cantor.
