Yes it sucks. But as I said in another post I am convinced Trump thinks he needs a win fast. He is down to 51% in Rassmusen. He will give the rinos this one and call it a win. As it is you have some GOP’s saying it’s not generous enough and leaves some without insurance. By the time they get through and the rats stuff more crap into it 80% of Obamacare will still be there.

Congress was never going to repeal ObamaCare. As another Freeper astutely pointed out a few weeks ago, most Americans -- including Republican voters -- absolutely love ObamaCare. They just don't like two things about it:

1. The name.

2. Paying for it.

A complete repeal of ObamaCare would have gotten a lot of support here on FreeRepublic ... and would have cost the Republican Party control of Congress in 2018.

you say you think Trump is in favor of this bill because he needs a win - this bill is not a win, so your logic is off.

May I, as an enthusiastic supporter of President Trump for the past year, make a suggestion?

The Congressional Debate is now starting in earnest. Should not some serious attention be given to the Hippocratic Oath that all physicians take, before Congress retains anything from the Obamanist effort, as a "safety net?"

The issue is somewhat different from that raised by Jefferson's brief explanation for a "safety net" in his time, as opposed to the disaster that has been the modern "Welfare State" (Jefferson On Welfare. But the point to be understood, is that social "remedies," in an age in which more people retained a moral compass, worked infinitely better, than those in our present age of imagined grievances, blame & envy!

Let us put all factors on the table. The American future is in play!
