True, but for the wrong reasons. The Senate will emasculate the bill of its Freedom Caucus provisions. They’ll pass a bill similar to Ryancare. The bill will go to conference comprised entirely of establishment K Street suck-ups. The bill will be passed with threats and payoffs to recalcitrant members of congress, and signed by Trump.

You heard it here first. The fix us in. It’s a done deal.

Balderdash!

We have Ted Cruz and Rand Paul in the Senate, among others, who have said that Ryan-care as originally constituted won't pass that chamber.

We also have the steadfast House Freedom Caucus, which has been getting concessions and improvements that might very well dispel their reservations. Indeed, we're now reading that it's the RINO's who are beginning to complain in some instances.

Without those patriotic elements who are negotiating for the best provisions, this legislation will never pass.

In any event, there's no reason to think that the House Freedom Caucus will suddenly repudiate the improvements they've achieved, and instead vote for an inferior version of this bill which they already said they'd vote "no" on.

Let's remember that the naysayers were initially insisting that this bill would have to be considered "as is", with no changes—a canard that has clearly been disproven.

Yawn. Underestimating President Trump again. What else is new?

No way such a bill would get passed.

They aren't going to do the same things the Democrats did.

The fact, you can't pass a major piece of legislature with just one Party.

Repeal Obamacare and then put in free market solutions in pieces.
