With a couple of exceptions, Ryan was again made Speaker of the House with the overwhelming vote of Reps, including almost all of the so-called conservatives in the House Freedom Caucus.
The Reps need to make a decision on how bad they want to repeal Obamacare and put what they want in place. The only way is to get rid of the filibuster in the Senate.
Historically, the Ryan house has produced bills that absolutely killed obmacare when obama was in office. They knew these bills would not be signed and would be killed. So it was easy to show some guts that they don't show now.
Why don't they produce the same bill now that the bill would be signed by a President Trump. This is the worst exercise in political gamesmanship ever and it's all engineered by Ryan.
The number two man under Boehner, Kevin McCarthy, who was very well liked had to back out of the running for Speaker, since he wouldn't give up his girl friend who is also a rep in the House.
Makes you wonder why we don't have term limits in a place so full of dubious legislators.
