LIVE: Voting on clean repeal RIGHT NOW
CSPAN ^ | 07/26/2017 | CSPAN 2

Posted on 07/26/2017 12:51:07 PM PDT by GIdget2004

Democrats waived the point of order, so only 50 votes are needed, not 60. They are that convinced that it will fail.

“...I despise him and I no longer wish him well. He hates us, I hate him....”

I find him totally despicable...always have. However, I held off saying anything when he was diagnosed. I’ve found thru the years that It’s just better not to say anything if I couldn’t say anything good. However, at this point, I will say that Karma has a way of coming around, and Juan is gonna find that out....the hard way. May it be slow, agonizing and terrible. Let it be a lesson to the rest of that useless trash up there.

End of the road? Who are you kidding. They will be reelected. They always are. Yes, we want them gone. The problem is WE don’t vote in those elections in those states.

They will not be voted out of office.

Nothing ever changes. This is all theatre.

It's time for Trump to force Congress and staff to live under Obamacare. Who cares if they don't like it - it will just prove the point that no one wants it.

There was talk back in January about Manchin of WV voting with Trump some, but has he ever?

I'm sure he voted yes on some of the building renames and proclaiming official days for this or that.

The Democrats have dropped the 60 vote rule to show that the Republicans even without the Democrats interfering in any way can’t get it done on their own.

LOL! Gotta give 'em credit for calling their bluff!

GOP: "We were fully committed to repealing Obamacare when we knew it would be vetoed."

You are exactly right. The RINOs are there because of RINO voters. Conservatives can’t get control of the Republican party. The problem is more structural than just a few senators. I doubt they can get any kind of healthcare bill to pass. Before I assumed a ObamaCare lite bill would eventually pass — now I am not so sure.

Only ONE of the seven traitors is up for re-election in 2018: Dean Heller of Nevada.

Jeff Flake is up next year, my guess is he WANTED to vote against it but was scared.

Yeah, I get what you are saying, and he does deserve credit for that, but I am basically at the point where I am ready for the entire GOP to resign and cease to exist.

False party is false.

We all know about Collins, but Capito and Heller voted FOR the same bill in 2015.

They’re not going to take those cush patronage jobs without a fight from Chuckie Schumer and the Democrats.

It is justifiable now for president Trump to state that he won't sign the up coming continuing resolution aka the C.R. The government already is shutdown legislatively if they can fix the problem then no more money.

Budget, Wall, Repeal, Tax Cuts or every senators major donors pet projects get starved.

No Bill to Desk no CR and at this point he should demand his budget be passed and we should help him make that happen.

Lock her up and shut it down - then flush.

The GOP is no longer a viable political party

So, you think another party will do better?

Are you that stupid?

This is not a problem with the GOP, but the people who are in it.

Go start another party, if it gains traction, the same self-serving, big-government swamp creatures will inhabit that party as well.

The Tea Party had the right idea.....primary out the RINOs and replace them. Yup, we get losers, like Marco Rubio, but we get winners also.

Another party would be no different.

It is time for conservatives to work and clean the GOP via the primary process......a never-ending process.

Lump him with the semi-braindead, Pelosi and Waters.
