Dear Mr. President:
Do NOT under any circumstances endorse or sign RYANcare. RYANcare will immediately become TRUMPcare and that will destroy your credibility and your presidency.
Ryan and the globalist big government GOPe hates you and what you ran on just as much as the democrats and the media. The day you sign TRUMPcare, you own it and they own you. You will be the GOPe's prison bitch. You will also lose your support base and then your tax plan and other trade and economic plans go up in smoke.
Do not settle for anything less than full and complete repeal. If you can't get that from congress, then veto whatever they send up (rinse and repeat as necessary) and if they fail eventually to send up a clean repeal bill then sign nothing and let Obamacare implode on its own.
The crap about 60 votes is crap indeed. They control the senate and the rules. No excuses! This is totally in Republican hands.
If they override your veto, then they own the disaster that follows and you will still have your credibility and your support base. And we are prepared to fight these evil socialist bastards until hell freezes over if necessary.
What happens to the millions of poor people if they lose their health insurance? Well, how did they manage to get health care before Obama? What happened to the millions of people who lost their health care when Obamacare was installed? What happened to the millions who lost their jobs due to Obamacare? What's happening to our economy and our national debt as a result of socialist programs? What happens to our people when the government finally goes bust?
Look, the media, the democrats, the GOPe, the globalists, the corporatists, the crony capitalists, the socialists, the illegals, the Mohammedists, etc, are all going to hate you no matter what you do. Do not under any circumstances blink, retreat or cave-in to their socialist demands. That would be the end of your moral authority and the resulting continuation of unchecked big government will lead to the ultimate collapse of our economy.
Worst case, if the current socialist government/crony capitalist corporate healthcare insurance industry implodes, we will still survive as a free nation and free people. We have faith in God, our constitution, our free markets and our ability to overcome major obstacles. We shall overcome and persevere.
If we slay the federal behemoth and get back to free markets, we will find that government costs will come down, the economy will soar, healthcare costs will come down, federal tax rates can come down, and as more companies are profiting and more people are working, federal and state tax receipts will actually increase. And truly destitute people who cannot provide for themselves can be supported by local and state programs as intended.
Hold the line. America will love you for it in the long run.
he GOPe is pushing half measures. REPEAL Obamacare already! Get rid of it and don’t look back. And while you’re at it, do the same for Medicare and Medicaid. Don’t “block grant” them. Don’t pare them back. Set fire to the whole idea of health care as an “entitlement.” Then sit back and watch in awe as the free market swoops in and provides something far better for a lot less money.
Sorry to be late for this one. Don’t let Lyin’ Ryan get away with this. This bastard needs to be Cantorized. Flood his phone lines and tell him.
Lyin’ Ryans Wisconsin offices phone numbers:
Jansville Office (608) 752-4050
Kenosha office (262) 654-1901
Racine Office (262) 637-0510
Never stop calling this Rino bastard par excellence.
“...Don’t like the bill? Elect a new speaker & start fresh....”
*****************************************************************
It appears that you want folks to roll over and accept Dictator Ryan’s decreed bill AS IS. Many of us and many Representatives find the RINO-Care bill UNACCEPTABLE. So if self-appointed dictator Ryan wants to pass the bill, he’s going to have to AGREE TO THE CHANGES NEEDED TO MAKE IT ACCEPTABLE TO THE BASE in order to have their vote.
Do not step in the steaming pile of Ryan.
I agree with Jim. Better that Trump and Republicans do it NOW and within one to two years, the market will recover—the market of free enterprise medicine.
Thank you, Jim, for standing up to the statists.
Like in the “old” days when most of us were young, some will die, some will rely on charity, some will use life savings for medical bills, some will buy insurance, some will not.
Why are people screaming at him.
Like do all of us just think our role is to just sit around making veiled threats at Trump as if his ability veto is an excuse to let the House and Senate slide it through?
This thing doesn’t pass unless our reps VOTE for it. Write them, lobby them, show up to their offices. Dont just depend on a veto and then be in a daily panic because you don’t know what may happen.
Absolutely! Ryan is a snake. He’s on the globalist team.
We likely don’t, so we will continue the status quo unless we get more reps elected
That sounds like a very viable solution, in my unprofessional opinion. That could be implemented right away, no?
‘course I’d rather hear the President pound that bully pulpit daily as he firmly states: “repeal or no deal”.
Maybe that should be a bumper sticker.
We don’t. On the other hand, doubt we have even 50 for repeal. Stupid establishment goons.
“A partial repeal is better than no repeal.”
I strongly disagree - you can’t be a little bit pregnant (as they say).
“The rest can still be repealed later.”
Theoretically, but history shows that kicking the can down the road never works. Balancing the budget is one example.
Repeal Obamacare. Do not listen to Ryan.
“There are 52 senators more than three already said they can’t accept repeal and no replace because they live in moderate districts so get over yourselves this is the best you can get right now with health care”
Get over yourselves? Do you always fold at the first sign of opposition, or just on the important issues?
May your chains rest lightly upon you...
Exactly look how they’ve managed money with SS. Look what they did to the VA.
It’s too late
I dunno buddy
I watched Soicer pimping it to several interviewers
WHAT!!! 3 .AM
We as neighbors have to deliver the mail to the correct address here. Useless.
If it is successful, all kinds of other repeal and deregulation bills will follow, including; massive “Health Savings Account”...”Association Health Plan” and “Interstate competition” proposals.
Sorry, there is no evidence McConnell will do the heavy lifting required to support Trump’s agenda in the Senate.
Easy for you to say.
I’m sure you could do the job so much better and not blow all your political capital on a glorious defeat for principle.
I’d prefer outright repeal, but unless you can mind control some Senators into voting for outright repeal, we may have to fight for every inch we can get instead of one perfect bill.
It reduces them to 0, but doesn't repeal the regs.
It's actually worse than Obamacare because it's the same crappy system but transfers title to the GOP.
