McConnell rejects Trump's advice to repeal ObamaCare now, replace later

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is rejecting President Trump's suggestion on how the Senate could promptly pass its ObamaCare overhaul measure -- by immediately repealing the 2010 heath care law and replacing it later. snip He also riffed on Trump’s winning campaign slogan, saying, "It's not easy making America great again, is it?"

There was this turtle on his back on top of a post...

Thanks again Kentucky.

It's not easy Making America Great Again because the US Senate, either political party, has any intention of cutting off the profit stream from their deep-pocket donors.

If they were serious, they wouldn't take vacation next week and they would omit the August vacation. They'd stay in DC and fix the health care mess.

"It's not easy making America great again, is it?"

It's easy if you want to do it.

But Mitch has other priorities.

“He also riffed on Trump’s winning campaign slogan, saying, “It’s not easy making America great again, is it?””

Because of people like him. The A-hole.

McDorkell, alng with his fellow RINOs, is a complete asswipe.

May his demise be not nice at all.

And soon.

So, when they didn’t have a Republican president, all those votes to repeal CommieCare were just grandstanding. But I’m pretty sure most of us knew that already.

F him for mocking America. How week be cope if Trump dubs against them in the next election?

All those GOPe scumbags that’ve been shouting to the heavens that they had a real good program already designed to replace Obamacare are now outed as the liars anyone paying attention already knew they were.

If McConnell’s priority is to restore the Senate to its originally intended role in preserving American liberty, then he will stop his childish combativeness, take advantage of the rare opportunity citizens gave him in 2016, and get on with leading the battle.

Isn’t this something . . . We don’t have the House, so we give them the House; we don’t have the Senate, so we give them the Senate; We don’t have the White House, so we give them the White House . . and the Turtle and the Jackass of the House still CAN’T DO A DAMN THING ABOUT ANYTHING

Mitch is working on the new GOPe logo.

There is a reason Kentucky is standing on the side of those communist states refusing to clean up voter fraud and the reason is named McConnell.

They never thought a Republican, much less Donald Trump, would win. They had no replacement at all ready for Obamacare because they were expecting to dance to Hillary's tune. It shows how out of touch they are with everyone outside of the beltway.

Not can’t, won’t!

[faithhopecharity]

Djt gave congress the exact signal - and political leadership - needed. And this McConnell fellow’s gonna ignore it and screw us over again with just more federal snafu of our health care? Can’t Kentucky recall this buffoon, or? He’s sitting in the way of MAGA

[Grimmy]

Not out of touch. Criminally corrupt.
