Trump upset with Democrats — not House Freedom Caucus — for failed GOP health-care vote
March 24, 2017
From a simple google search:
“President Trump declared Friday that the real reason the GOP plan to repeal and replace ObamaCare failed was because there were “no votes from the Democrats.”...
...Trump said he was “a little surprised” by the House Freedom Caucus’ refusal to support the GOP-backed bill, but insisted they were still friends...
... he maintained that Republican leaders’ decision Friday to pull the vote was “perhaps the best thing that could happen.” “The best thing politically speaking is to let ObamaCare explode,” Trump said, predicting Democrats will eventually “come to us.”

Sorry stanne, you don’t get to cherry pick a few words and create your narrative...it was VERY clear from the call made to Robert Costa right after the vote that he is very disappointed in the Freedom Caucus and he knows it was their fault the bill went down..
Him also blaming the Democrats is just good politics.
Trump was VERY clear..he gave the FC almost everything that they wanted and it wasn’t good enough for them. He also made it known that they led him on until he gave them 80% of what they wanted and the still said no.
Stop deluding yourself about this...Trump blamed the Freedom Caucus right away and he did it loud and clear, which is why all the DC and national news outlets are running the same theme ... “the ultra conservative Freedom Caucus killed the bill”...that’s what is running on CNN and that is what’s running on my local cable news.
He also made it VERY clear that the next bill he puts up will not include all the demands from the FC but will be a bipartisan bill.
Congratulations Freedom Caucus...you won the battle to lose the war!!
