The freedom caucus was and is nothing but talk.

Requirements for being in the “freedom” caucus:
1. be good at talking the talk
2. have good establishment potential
3. be terrified of the democrats

Because it doesn’t fit the narrative. We must blame the conservatives for doing such a horrible, unthinkable thing: defending liberty and standing on principles.

I don't care why the HFC is taking the hit. They should take the opportunity all this attention is affording them to explain their mission and agenda and, more importantly, exactly why Ryan/TrumpCare was a fiasco.
If it was.

Good question, more liberal Republicans (Democrats in R jerseys) were running away from Ryancare as there were conservatives opposed to it.
But we have to eliminate conservatives from Congress..../s

A lot of Freepers have latched onto a notion that President Trump attacked the FG and therefore he attacked conservatives.
But I understand the FC is half made up of #NeverTrumpers.
In all likelihood, the President was likely directing his fire at Cruz Bot NeverTrumpers.
OTOH my own logic direction is confounded because the Ryancare AHCA was a turd to begin with.
We’ll revisit this battle again with the CINC leading the way.

Repeal Obamacare (and Obama)
don’t replace it with Ryancare or anything else. Not the fed govt’s job to mess with individual health care and decisions of Americn citizens.
Repeal, darnit!

“We must blame the conservatives for doing such a horrible, unthinkable thing: defending liberty and standing on principles.”
Allowing Obamacare to continue suggests a set of principals I find repugnant.

Why would we want to blame anyone for a GOOD outcome?

Ryancare would have made big government healthcare stay, and I’m happy that the Freedom Caucus saved us from it.
To: TBP
Freedom caucus = establishment congressmen pretending to be otherwise. Plus a couple sincere members who can’t see the forest for the trees.

Ryancare was to PRESERVE Obamacare, not end it.

Why aren’t Democrats, who claim that they’ve been trying for years to fix problems with ObamaCare, properly assigned blame for not helping fix the problem they had to pass to find out what the problems were inside?
