President Trump on Saturday threatened to end key payments to insurance companies made under Obamacare if a repeal and replace bill is not passed.
"After seven years of 'talking' Repeal & Replace, the people of our great country are still being forced to live with imploding ObamaCare!" the president wrote in a tweet.
"If a new HealthCare Bill is not approved quickly, BAILOUTS for Insurance Companies and BAILOUTS for Members of Congress will end very soon!" he added.
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) fired back Saturday, saying Trump should "stop playing politics with people's lives and health care, start leading, and finally begin acting presidential."

Oh, you and your pals have already done that, Chucky, when you all passed The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act on a straight party line vote.
Why didn't you follow your own advice then?
>>He needs to put Congress on Obamacare right before they leave on recess, then they need to all go home and get an earful from their constituents. See if they have an attitude adjustment. I’m sick of them all.

Except Steve Scalise.
True.
Thought the insurance “Guaranteed Profit Payments “ ended in 2016 anyway???
Socialized medicine is un-American.

You’re a fool, Never Trumper. My premiums went from 29 dollar a month to $4,000 a month in January. If that’s not skyrocketing, what is???
McCain ought to be forced onto an 0Care Bronze plan, or to be treated at his closest PHX VA.
Stop with the threats and just do it!
Even so...his wifie could buy the hospital.
“...Even so...his wifie could buy the hospital....”
Then make her buy it. Make as miserable as possible for all those POS. Make em spend a whole bunch of their money instead of ours.
Absolutely, President Trump needs to sign an executive order mandating that Congress subscribe to Obamacare.
Either politicians live under the ACA or their constituents get to have access to the health care afforded to their representatives.
I bet bold action like this from our POTUS would light a fire and result in swift repeal and replacement.
I’d like to see his doctor give him that thumbs down gesture someday.
Send this off to LS for forwarding...
Congess exempted itself from the Obamacare law.
They did it by lying.
They fraudulently claimed that both the House and the Senate are small businesses with less than 50 employees.
They certified that the 435-member House had only 45 members and 45 staffers, while the 100-member Senate had only 45 employees total.
President Trump should challenge them by going public with the details of the lies they told and the fraud they perpetuated to exempt themselves.
Embarrass them in public.
Oh, wait!
It’s impossible to embarrass the lowlife scumbags that they are.
Brat and Gomert come to mind for special consideration.
President Trump....FOCUS on what CONGRESS GETS!!! FOCUS!!! It’s OBSCENE the PERKS they get!!! OBSCENE!!
Have you taken that issue up with your elected representatives? /sarc
“Even so...his wifie could buy the hospital.”
But she probably wouldn’t. She probably doesn’t like him anymore than the rest of us do.
