Agree. Jim Jordan would make an excellent replacement for Speaker.

>> a simple repeal of Obamacare and then replacing the Affordable Care Act with a free-market alternative

In other words, what we the voters have told the GOP we want for the last seven years...

Trump can kill obamacare completely dead right now. Vacate every single bueracratic regulation associated with obamacare. Exempt every state and every insurance company for 10 years

Am I the only one that has a difficult time w/ the verbiage and phrases used by (R)\D.C.?

The Free Market doesn’t need govt to work. All it needs is to get govt OUT OF THE WAY. I wouldn’t trust govt to tell me the color of the sky at any given moment, I sure as s* ain’t going to rely upon their definition of ‘free-market’.

Anything ‘replaced’ by govt can, and will, be bloated\corrupted by more of the same.

I don’t expect any one of ‘em, anymore, to even give lip service to the Constitution, but, for a change, I’d be impressed if they could bring CHOICE and FREEDOM from the ashes from time to time...

120-315.

At best.

I hate to say it, but you repealers are living in an imaginary world.

“...as the Secretary shall deem...”. How many times what a phrase, similar, codified in that monstrosity?

Course, (D) are smart. They know a (R) would NEVER use the full power to forward their agenda.

Course, the (R)s are, most likely, utilizing that authority as they hoped....they don’t *WANT* it gone/repealed.

O’Care might collapse, that doesn’t mean a gold-star. (R)s didn’t *DO* anything to aid in the demise; merely allowed the People suffer, needlessly, for (seemingly) political gain.

IMO, Garrett appears to be posturing and blowing smoke. He’s seen what ‘leadership’ has done, the ‘no plan handy’, STILL ‘worked’ w/ ‘im...But NOW? Either let it be or repeal?

Where was his voice/opposition in Jan/Feb??

But why would any Dems sign on?

I mean — I guess rats abandons sinking ships, but Dems...not so much, at least not in recent memory.
