If it so clear what the people want, why has the GOP been unable to come up with a consensus plan on providing then what they want?
Trump tweets:
After seven horrible years of ObamaCare (skyrocketing premiums & deductibles, bad healthcare), this is finally your chance for a great plan!
The irony is that the Freedom Caucus, which is very pro-life and against Planned Parenthood, allows P.P. to continue if they stop this plan!
Maybe the big picture is that this industry-authored scandal of a bill is intended to fail, leaving Ryan holding the bag.
Nonsense. This is a major defeat for Trump and the MSM and the Dems will play it that way. Trump was all in supporting this plan. The MSM and the Dems will say that the guy who authored The Art of the Deal couldn't deliver and that he is just a charlatan and a phony. It will further weaken Trump's ability to get the rest of his agenda passed and embolden the various factions within the GOP to make unreasonable demands on any legislation that is proposed.
Passing this bill would be a major defeat for the American people.
If Trump puts himself in opposition to the will of the people, he’s on the wrong side. It’s the very thing that put him in office, after all.
