Really?

What sacred “promise” requires the Freedom Caucus to vote WITH Nancy Pelosi to preserve ObamaCare as it is?

What new “principle” is so very important that the Freedom Caucus feels free to ignore America’s ancient principle of “majority rule”? Yes, that ancient principle DOES mean that the 30 or so members of the Freedom Caucus, having presented and promoted their proposals, have a DUTY to submit to the final decisions of the majority.

And why should an elected representative, who neglected to inform voters that he was unable to negotiate in “good faith” with other representatives, be re-elected?

So I find I do have a problem supporting people who act to keep ObamaCare in place, and then go out to raise campaign funds by ranting about ObamaCare’s existence.

The AHCA pretty much kept Obamacare in place. that’s what the freedom caucus voted against.

And what about the Tuesday caucus, or whatever they were called. The moderates had more votes against AHCA then the Freedom Caucus.
