The are saying that simple repeal can’t be done under reconciliation.

And they said they don't have the votes to pass the gop reconciliation bill. Do you honestly like the reconciliation bill (which BTW could get much worse in the reconciliation process)? Yes, it may be possible to get 51 votes some day. Would that be a good thing or a bad thing?

Now you are confusing me.

There are three reconciliation bills related to Obamacare being discussed/proposed the past two weeks.

The one in 2015 that they passed to Obama wasn't a full repeal but it gutted most of Obama-care.

That's the one they no longer have the votes for, today's breaking news DUHHH!.

Then there are the two Obamacare-lite bills that they couldn't get the votes for.

They are all budget reconciliation bills (requiring only 50 plus Pence).

Easiest prediction I ever made:that nothing looking anything like a repeal will get to Trump's desk under this congress.
