Yep. I’d be all for it if that was what he actually said.
It isn’t. :-(
My Rep. Dave Brat is still a no vote and I support that.
Ryancare is not repeal.
Worst case scenario. Conservatives get primaried RNC approved RINOs get the spots.
it STILL incorporates health care for illegals so why is it so important for this POS to pass?
Does anything have to be forced in Phase 2? My sense is that will be the easy part. Secretary Price, as HHS under the existing Obamacare law, will have a lot of authority conferred to him by the law to make executive changes.
I wish i knew more about what those changes might include.
Dear Mr President,
It is time to concede, Congress will never repeal Obamacare nor will they do anything of substance to improve the lives of Americans. This is all smoke and mirrors and we the people are going to be left holding the bag once again.
Why don’t you just Concede to Obamacare?? Not only should you concede this trivial fight I think you should FULLY EMBRACE OBAMACARE. Why should the Taxpayers be stuck with paying for all these Inferior, High Priced, Cadillac Plans for all of our 24 MILLION Federal Employees? Don’t our Public Employees and Public Servants deserve the Very Finest Health Care this COuntry has to offer?
I believe they deserve the Best Health Care America has to offer, and that is the Official Government Health Care Plan, Obamacare. So why don’t you quit pussyfooting around and Proudly Proclaim your desire to see that ALL Federal Employees receive the Finest, Most Affordable Health Care the US has to offer, OBAMACARE.
All the Money currently wasted on these inferior high priced cadillac plans can be diverted to the Wall.
There is ONLY ONE WAY to make it happen:
Executive Orders
1. All waivers to the Affordable Care act are hereby repealed.
2. There shall be NO funds drawn from the treasury to pay for Health Insurance for ANY Federal Employee except Members of the Armed Services.
3. ALL Federal Employees except members of the US Armed Services, SHALL purchase their own personal and Family Health Insurance from the Affordable Care Exchange in the state they legally reside.
And to make sure it is Bipartisan, President Trump should VETO it every Time and FORCE them to Override his Veto to Repeal this Monstrosity.
Sign these 3 orders and it will be FULLY REPEALED in Less than 30 days.
NOT UNTIL, Anyone want to make a BET???
I would also consider another Executive Order Withholding All Transportation Funds from All States that do Not have Their Public Employees enrolled in Obamacare, just to Prove a Point.
When and ONLY WHEN Government Lives under the Same Laws as us will anything substantial happen
<< sweeping bill to overhaul the health care system >>
Democrats, including Hillary, ran on an “overhaul” of Obamacare. Not conservatives.
This part is UNACCEPTABLE!
I give that quote no credence (just want to clear the water) whatsoever.
It was a PRIVATE meeting meaning anything that was said doesn't leave the room.
But the NYT, known for fakenews and with a deep hate for Trump, conservatism and actually the USA also-is good at making up stuff to make Trump look mean and hateful.
And it could have been made up and passed to the NYT by a mole at the meeting.
The people disloyal to our President need to be rooted out and discarded.
A lot of people in close proximity need to hear "YOU'RE FIRED!"
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Why do you think that report wasn’t twisted in the same way in the first place?
Fake News. This is the art of the feel , not the true art of the deal.
The House will put its bill into the hopper, likely with an amendment from the Freedom Caucus, and then its going to conference.
But no way the bill is going to pass in the house in its present form. And no way the Senate is going to make it different yet again.
Ted Cruz also has found a way not to use the reconciliation process.
The Senate can go to full repeal without 60.

Ted Cruz may have discovered a way to totally change Obamacare without 60 Senate votes
American Thinker ^ | Mar. 12, 2017 | Thomas Lifson
Democrats tend to love sneaky lawyer tricks because their side is so good at them. The passage of Obamacare under the Senate rules governing “reconciliation” is the most prominent example of creatively applying the rules to get what they want.
But it turns out that there are some really smart and creative legal minds on the GOP side, and now that the GOP runs the Senate, the sauce for the Democrat goose also flavors the Republican gander, if that isn’t too disagreeable an abuse of metaphorical license. Ted Cruz is one such legal mind; in the words of legendary Harvard Law School Professor Alan Dershowitz, “…one of the best students I ever had.”
You’re saying you don’t think Trump is lobbying conservatives to vote for RyanCare? Or that he’s not threatening them? Why do you trust RINOs over the Freedom Caucus?
THAT is why Obamacare was needed and why Ryancare does not repeal.
It was always about illegal aliens.
They are the ones who largely do not have coverage.
Don’t bet money on it. Dave Brat will be re-elected as he is doing exactly what we sent him to DC to do.
100% score from the Heritage Foundation.
Is congress exempt from this bill ????
Illegal invading insurgent criminal colonizing aliens from Mexico send BILLIONS of dollars to Mexico. It’s the main source of income for Mexico.
Most of it with no taxes paid on it.
Stop the money from flowing out of our country and at least make illegals pay for their education, food, housing and health care instead of sending money out of the country.
No one is supposed to come live in this country if they are a drain on our economy.
We have no obligation to allow anyone to just walk across the border and get a free ride.
Why do you think that report wasn’t twisted in the same way in the first place?

Perhaps it was twisted. Perhaps Trump really DOES NOT support RINOCare. I know I don’t.
So that just leaves us guessing at why Trump is going on about his “wonderful health care bill”.
