“A lot of people might say that,” Trump said, laughing. “We’ll end up with a better health-care plan. A great plan. And you wouldn’t need the Freedom Caucus.”

Here we go. The Freedom Caucus may have just cut off their nose to spite their face. I heard Trump in the Oval Office too talking about how they can do a bipartisan deal if Obamacare collapses. The Freedom Caucus would not be necessary. Instead of getting something, they will get nothing.

I’m sure Trump is feeling that they stabbed him in the back. Think about it:

The first thing he does is gives them a solid gold, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee 100% approved Supreme Court justice.

The next he does is write a dozen or so EO’s on immigration

After that he gets the Wall going.

Then they lead him on regarding the health care bill..making him think they were moving in the right direction ...he gave them 80% of what they wanted.

They said no...we want 100%.

Yeh...i’d be done with them too!!

>>Instead of getting something, they (Freedom Caucus) will get nothing.<<

There was nothing in Ryan’s bill for the Freedom Caucus constituency to begin with. Nothing now is no different than nothing later.

They should have thought of that before they threw their temper tantrum !

Yep. Many of us were talking about this very thing before the vote
was cancelled.

Trump will now be forced to work with Democrats on fixing Obamacare.
Which, of course, will include funding.

Yep, perhaps a Single Payer option may not be as bad as it sounds; we certainly cannot count on the freedom caucus to get a deal; they blew it. President Trump will have to do a deal with the Democrats, like President Reagan had to do.

Trump said Ryan’s bill is better than Americans realized.

“A lot of people don’t realize how good our bill was because they were viewing phase one. But when you add phase two which was mostly the signs of secretary price who is behind it, and you add phase three which I think we would have gotten, it became a great bill,” Trump said. “Premiums would have gone down and it would have been very stable, would have been very strong. But that’s okay.

“But we’re very, very close,” he said. “And, again, I think what will happen is ObamaCare, unfortunately, will explode.”
