The purpose of Ryancare was to preserve as much of Obamacare as possible.
Fedzilla derives great power from controlling all health care decisions and medical records.
The attendants of Fedzilla in Congress do not want to eliminate all those federal agencies created by Obamacare and reduce Fedzilla’s power.
The Uniparty eunuchs planned to hang Obamacare II around Trump’s neck to make him a one term President so they could get back to business as usual, importing cheap labor and selling out America.
Trump was just looking for a “win”, not seeing that he is siding with those seeking to destroy him and backhanding those who wish him success.
Trump has a bully pulpit he uses. But you go to war with the army you have and not the army you want.
Any follow on beyond Phase 2 (Phase 2 was to be everything Trump did within what the new law allowed) was required to have a Phase 3 voted on. Our concern was that this would never likely happen. Trump and the Freedom Caucus could work to not pass things until Phase 3 passed into law.
You do the best you can, with what you have, where you’re at. Trump would not have gotten the House bill without changes from the Senate, and even then, it likely wouldn’t have passed. But, if this had happened, it would not have been a “Freedom Caucus” or “Club for Growth” issue, but a “Congress” issue.
