Phase 2.....
Because a complete repeal requires a ‘replace’ that would need 60 votes in the Senate.
Besides, if “complete repeal” is taken literally it means removing those between 21 and 26 from parent’s plans.
It means not covering pre-existing conditions.
Repealing those elements is political suicide.
Let’s also be politically real, shall we? “Why not repeal?” — also, “why not World Peace?”
There is lots of concern about those that have obtained coverage under Obamacare that they will lose that. That will be a potent weapon for Democrats to use, and there is significant fear amongst establishment Republicans on that issue.
That’s political reality. So if not this current bill, they still have to make it politically palatable.

Just do not get sick!
Once again the Republicans live up to expectations - the worst expectations rather than their promises. Where did “repeal” go?
Quite simply- without some sort of guarantee for people who have played the game by the rules and then in later age find themselves without coverage for pre existing conditions, it will not fly.
I know more than one person who worked steadily all their adult life, got laid off in their 50’s after having developed (and cared for) a condition like diabetes or heart disease. No coverage, no coverage available at any price because of a condition. If this is your situation the alternative is death, pretty much, which for a lot of people means that ALL other considerations fly out the window.
For a lot of people better *ANYTHING* that gives them a chance of coverage, however poor, at whatever cost to their liberties and damage to the ideal of republican, limited government, than early death. When it’s survival, nothing else matters, not the constitution, not freedom, not the honesty of dishonesty of the government- survival.
This is Ryan’s plan and Trump should not have signed onto this.
Ryan is a weasel and should have been Cantorized.
He certainly should not have returned as Speaker.
The leadership in both the House and Senate are Uniparty eunuchs who will not voluntarily do what the voters want.
Rand Paul is right. Repeal. Every. Word.
Tweaking Obamacare is not what I voted for.
better do it before the 2018 elections.
Make every member of congress have this new rino-care. Not just us!
Repeal government socialized medicine and replace it with improved government socialized medicine is missing the point.
Any program that gives the government control of the citizens health is fraught with danger.
TrumpCare 2016
Rand Paul for President 2020!
So now we don’t trust Trump? Let me off THAT train. Trump is my guy PERIOD.
I knew it. I should have voted for Hillary.
Federal control of healthcare is ILLEGAL!!

Rand Paul for President 2020!
Because he needs a few more “I’ve kept my Promises to keep the only people he’s got onboard, US, we the voters”! Yes? No?
It’s EXTORTION!
We don’t get the repeal, without buying the deal!
No deal!
A clean repeal, THEN try to sell us your bag of tricks!
A clean repeal, and hand it off to the free market.
Government OUT OF HEALTHCARE! NOW!
Because the GOP is gay, filled to the brim with liars, and can’t do anything.
Don’t do it President Trump! The slimy Republicans are trying to pull a fast one on you! Sign it when it’s all in one package and you have read it inside out. Don’t be like Nancy polosi, “ We’ll know what’s in it once we pass it” remember that idiotic statement?! Hold tight and steady...we can hang loose until a new GOOD plan is hatched!
